Halloween
Hey.... Halloween is next week. Do you dress up or party? If so I expect to see some pictures of your halloween costumes. Halloween is usually a big deal/bash around the Ice house so I'll be sure and get some pictures for ya'll.....
Curious to know what you do for Halloween and if its a big deal in your family......

I'll probably dress up for work. Nothing much.
It sucks when you go all out, then you have to sit there all day in your facepaint and uncomfortable costume after the initial appearance is over. Then you've got about 8-1/2 hours of sitting, sweating, and snagging your costume for the rest of the work day.
As for trick or treaters, I can't wait until my boy is old enough to go out. That will be fun.

Yeah.... I don't do the dress up for work thing. It can be a pain in the butt.
When the wife and I were younger we used to dress up and make the rounds of the local bars. Most have costume parties and there is some really sweet costumes..... the best part of doing the bar scene is all the chicks dress up like a slut.....
you know.... slutty vampire, slutty pirate, slutty devil, slutty nurse..... ya gotta love it.
The best costume for us was when the wifey dressed up like a slutty Little Red Riding Hood and I was the Big Bad Wolf. We went to a wooded area and took some awesome pictures. I'll see if I can find some of the pictures..... we looked hot. Last year I was a knight and she was a princess.
Now days one of my inlaws holds a major bash and we go there.

Halloween in New Orleans always meant going to the French Quarter (if you were an adult of course). Almost a mini Mardi Gras. Of course, you never knew if the costumes you saw were for Halloween, or just the normal garb for the locals down there.
Here are some photos from *Halloween Past*......one is just for you, Ice. There were other more colorful photos, but I know that Sombeech would spank me if I posted them.Never regret anything that made you smile!

1. Go to Moab to get away from it all and ride.
2. Hide in the basement with the lights off.

Hey shane, bring your girls by our haunted house we're doing at my dad's house in Draper.
We always deck out mine, my sisters and my dad's house for halloween. We go pretty overboard.

I usually dress up to take my son around. Gotta love the free candy. He enjoys me participating in the antics deemed normal on this one night of the year.
This is a pic of last year when my son wanted us to dress up like the Grim Reaper.Wilderness is not a luxury but a necessity of the human spirit, as vital to our lives and water and good bread

I would have a ball with Halloween if I had kids old enough, but my son is only 4 days old and all he does is eat and sleep. Kinda hard getting inot as an adult. My wife and I always forget to buy candy, so we douse the lights early and have rootbeer floats and a movie

Ehhh.... I am a bit of a holiday pooper. I like Thanksgiving but could do without the rest. Just another reason to drag out the shiz at the stores and make you spend money.
Anyway...I do have a funny story. My wife bought a costume for our 4 year old on Saturday. Its a power rangers get up from Target. This kid really isn't into power rangers but he liked the costume, it has muscles, a cape and a mask. He has been wearing it nonstop this weekend. He has me take it off so he can pee and then he wants it back on again. My wife finally dropped the hammer today and said no more until Halloween. So we've had a little power ranger protecting us all weekend.

We used to go big on Halloween, good costumes, out to parties or clubs. I was Frankenstein one year (my wife the Bride), Commander Riker another, and (other things that might offend). Lots of fun. But now, with the kids, we alternate - one takes the kids around the neighbourhood, while the other gives handouts - I mean candy - to the other brats - I mean kids - on the block.
And Reedus? 4 days old? Congratulations! What a fun ride this parenthood thing is - exciting and rewarding. Enjoy!

I watch a whole bunch of scary movies all month long. Last year I posted a movie review of all of the movies I watched: http://uutah.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1014
This year I focused on contemporary horror flicks. (2000 - present). So far Saw has been my favorite.
I love Halloween - it's one of my favorites holidays.It's only "science" if it supports the narrative.
