But by the end of the week, this is how they looked...
Of course we had to throw them away fast because they were a real (funny) eyesore for our neighbors, but we ended up carving pumpkins later in the month with Scott and Carissa and their cute little baby girl! Those pumpkins lasted through Halloween perfectly :)
We also went to CORNBELLYS this year! We seriously had a blast.
Steve is so in his element here...
These videos are actually sort of embarrassing! Something about looking awkward on a plastic bull, and then falling....but for the sake of the blog! Ha!
With our tickets, we got to go "spelunking". The attraction was a 12" by 8" wooden box sitting on a trailer, with a little tunnel entrance. We thought it would be so easy and kind of lame, but we were in for a serious surprise!!! It was so hard! The tunnels got smaller and the angles got more ridiculous to maneuver around! We climbed up in holes and had to flip upside down in holes! It seriously never ended!! We were all sweating by the end of it.
I always forget how easily scared I am, we always get like this before haunted stuff!
On Halloween day we got to dress up for work! It was fun! Everyone loved Jonathan's costume, it kind of freaked them out at times too (he's a road). Can anyone guess who Ashley and I dressed up as??
I was Boo from Monsters Inc. and Ashley was Agnes from Despicable Me!! Don't they look the same?? That is the joke Ashley and I were going for :) After work there was a Halloween party to go to, and Steve needed a costume. We spent a long time trying to figure out what Steve should be. He wanted a legit costume, but we didn't want to spend a ton of money either. But when you add an old gorilla suit, duct tape, face paint, and cardboard, you can get pretty creative! We figured he should be a monster! We went all out!
From this year and last year I'm seeing somewhat of a pattern. On Halloween we wait till the day of to find a costume, spend hours preparing it, and end up wearing it for 30 minutes. Steve ended up being the most decked out person at the party...but he was a good sport! He even got into character a couple times!
