Halloween 2011

Halloween 2011 didn't really happen but we had a good time planning for it. Instead of a Harvest Festival at the church with trunk or treating and walking from house to house getting candy we had a historical snow storm. We got to host another family that was without power. The kids aren't old enough to get upset that they didn't get candy so they just had a really really good time with the Nicolls. They stayed for 4 days and my kids were in heaven. Many people in Connecticut lost power for days even weeks. It was crazy. I always thought it was crazy that the Eastern States would miss so much school when it stormed. In Utah we were lucky if we got to miss school with 4 feet of snow. But I understand now, its the trees! With the amount of snow we received and a lot of leaves still on the trees we had many, many, many trees that snapped. There were trees down everywhere, all over the power lines, power boxes, homes, roads, etc. They are still cleaning up from it. So, Happy Halloween!
