Halloween 2022

 This year we had Ash from Pokemon

A wolf
And a Hogwarts Wizard
 I walked over to the elementary school to watch the parade. I love that they have moved it outside.
I got to help in Damon's class party that afternoon, which was really fun.
We had the mummies, ghosts, pumpkins, and witch fingers for dinner again. Rockwell ended up going trick or treating much earlier than we had thought, so we quickly made him a pumpkin and ghost to have with his hot dogs.
Aiden & Ashton came over and Logan's family picked them all up to go trick or treating in Logan's dad's neighborhood.
Grandma and Grandpa Ham came over for dinner and trick or treating. The kids sure loved having them here!
Al & Hallee came and trick or treated with us too.
It was a really fun night. The kids were so excited about everything and it was fun to visit while we walked and enjoyed the kids' excitement.

Everyday Adventures

 Tessa and Damon were so excited to decorate for Halloween, but sadly our decorations have seen better days. They lasted almost a day before they all fell off the walls. I decided to get some new ones, and they each had fun building their own Halloween scene in their rooms.


Damon went on a field trip to see Spookley The Square Pumpkin at the Scera Theatre. He loved it!!

One of Tessa's gymnastics coaches had her baby and he's been in the ICU on oxygen. When babies are healthy enough to leave the ICU the hospital puts their name on a butterfly on the wall. All the girls went to gymnastics with something butterfly on so they could send a picture to Genieve to wish her and her son well wishes.

We finished the new hummingbird puzzle. :)

I got to go watch Damon do his Rad Kids simulation. He has loved Rad Kids and has been doing the safety moves he's learned constantly.

Tessa's grade finished their unit on dinosaurs and I was able to go help for part of the day with Dino Day.

The Young Women in our ward did their Chuck-A-Treat-From-The-Street. Tessa and Damon were excited to dress up and get some candy thrown to them.
I told Tess to turn so I could see her tail. I meant to the side like in the picture above, but she really wanted to show her tail. Haha :)

Hallee sang a solo for her Halloween concert, and Tessa and I went to hear her. She sang Speechless from Aladdin, and did such a good job!!!
Mel gave Hallee and Tessa each a coupon for a free item from Bath & Body Works, so Al & I took them there after the show to choose something. They thought that was so fun!
Hallee came home with us after that and played the rest of the day. The boys got into an epic wrestling match, and I loved that the girls just danced through all the action and yelling and laughing.

We celebrated Mel & Tessa's birthdays with the Ham Fam.
Tessa was very happy with the gifts she got!
