Happy Halloween!

We gotta add our picture to the bunch!
HAPPY HALLOWEEN FROM THE HUNSAKERS! 
(Rob's here too!) :)

Rockin' Awesome Halloween Party!

My Aunt Christie started a fun tradition this year and threw a big Halloween party the Saturday before Halloween!
It was a total blast!

The decorations were incredible! 
The costumes were original and darling! (some hilarious!) 
Delicious, Halloween-themed food! 
Fun, fun games! (including a road-rally that our team should have won because 
WE DIDN'T CHEAT)
Music!
Family time!
Tons of laughs!
Super cute babies!
Prizes- all home-made and so awesome!

IT WAS A FANTASTIC HALLOWEEN NIGHT!
Thanks Sandalls for such a fun time!

and, ok...time to confess...we did cheat. :)

Snow! For Me!?

This morning Drake came into our bed at 8am to snuggle. We relaxed, talked, giggled, wrestled, tackled, and dozed.
When we ran out to the living room for breakfast, we were greeted by the best surprise!
We like to believe this first snowfall of the season was JUST FOR US! 
We really wanted to see some snow before we take off for California next week...
It was an awesome morning at the Hunsaker house! 
  (Snow clothes are so attractive, especially with your zipper down- eek!)
Yay for snow!

Grandma Sheri

This is a beautiful memory.

Gardner Village (D's Halloween Costume Debut!)

Finally, no Fall season is complete without a trip to
GARDNER VILLAGE!
We love it every year! (here and here)

The Sandall girls invited us to Gardner Village to show the kids the witches, do a little shopping, and have lunch and we were so excited for the opportunity to go! (Missed you Mom & Stace)

Every other Utah female with children in tow decided to come on the same day- Copycats! ;)
It was busy, but still so fun!

GONE are the days of dressing this boy as a cute little LION or a sweet MICKEY MOUSE and born are the days of SUPERHEROES...(Do I HAVE to let him decide what to be?)
I miss that sweet side, but I love this SPIDERMAN!
When Drake asks for a picture with something, I have to quickly take advantage, even if it's not a great one (that kid is a bugger about pictures lately)-
Great girls and great day...Thanks a million!

We'd already made the hour drive down to SLC, so we didn't want the fun to end at Gardner Village.
H&M at City Creek was calling each of our names- love that place.

And since it was such a GORGEOUS warm, fall evening, we strolled over to the temple and enjoyed the peaceful serenity there.

 This was one of the funnest days ever with my sisters! I'm going to miss them so much and I'm so glad that I had the opportunity to spend one-on-one time with them this last week. It was lovely!
I hope they had fun too! :)

Pumpkin Walk

Second on our Fall tradition list came the
PUMPKIN WALK!
(Yes, it's the most popular thing to do in Northern Utah and I'm sure all are sick of hearing about it, but that's because it's so FUN!)

Not great pictures, but it's fun to remember our favorites-

Mom left the credit card so there was lots of eating out while they were gone- Hehe!
Dinner at Texas Roadhouse ended our fun Girl's Night (+Drake)!
Looooooove these girlies!

Fall Traditions + Something New!

I was going to lump all my pictures from this last week into one long post, but it was just WAY too many pictures, so following will be two more posts about our awesome Fall-filled week! :)

We have lots of 
FANTASTICLY FUN FABULOUS FALL traditions! 
(like that?)
I didn't think we would be able to do very many of these with the big move approaching. Well, I watched my two youngest sisters last week while my parents were on a cruise and it was the perfect opportunity to pull myself away from packing and find time for some fun!

First, we tried something new this year and went to the American West Heritage Center for their Fall Festival!
It was cold and many things were closed due to some rain sprinkles, but all still had a fun time! Plus, little boys don't care what the weather is like when they can race down a giant slide, run through a corn maze, jump into a hay stack, and ride a pony. 
Kneaders for lunch after made the day even better!


Stuff

For Us:
Being Adorable.
Drake's horrible rash led to a trip to the Instacare which led to a diagnosis of Strep. (back in Sept)
Potty training his animals was popular for a few days. (where does he come up with this stuff?)
Last BR game watching Katie.
For Rob:
Rob @ USU game in Cali with Margetts Family- thanks guys!
Golfing in Napa with Nicky- GREEN!
Water-skiing in October? Only in California! Rob had an awesome time with his nieces and nephews over the weekend!
