Aaron and Melisa on the tour

OK I know the pic's totally suck. I am in desperate need of a new camera. Last night My brother Aaron and sis-in law Melisa went with us on The haunted history tour. They loaded up 5 bus loads of people and took us to 5 haunted locations in Pocatello. The first stop was the old Gray hound bus depot. The story is that there is a mysterious woman in white that sits on the benches in there waiting for her love. The second stop was Ross Park. They talked about Dead mans cave and the Indians that used to use that area as a winter camp. They said that there has been sightings of ghostly Indian man on the rocks. The Third stop was the courthouse. They told us that about 8 months ago a judge was working late in the court house one night and saw a woman out in the hall. He told her that she was not aloud to be in there and then she vanished. The fourth stop of the tour was the old gun plant or old B-E Buildings. They told us about a man that is seen in one of the windows at night. I looked and looked for that guy in the window I never saw him dang! The fifth and last stop of the night was to a "haunted race car" the story was pretty interesting. But I'm to lazy to type that one out. We had a great time. We will definitely do it again next year!

Doing fun Halloween Crafts

A few weeks ago Ryan had a field trip to the pumpkin patch. It just happened to fall on the same day Laney had a day off of school. My friends little boy is in Ryan's pre-school class so we decided to make a fun day of it. We went to the pumpkin patch and went through the corn maze. Afterwards we went to the patch to pick our pumpkins. The night before it had rained so it was pretty muddy out there. The kids were getting tired and cold by that time so we told them we would buy pumpkins at Walmart. So we went back to my house and had lunch and rolled out cookie dough. We also made cute bat paper bag puppets. Later on in the week we went to our friends and painted our pumpkins. We had so much fun! We love fall fun!

  1. Wow, I'm impressed that you went on the Haunted Tour. I'm pretty sure, even though I don't put much stock in all of it that I would be freaked out for weeks and Ry would hate the fact that I wouldn't go anywhere in the dark! What a fun thing though for you guys to do!
