Happy Halloween!

I know I've been really bad about posting. I have a half written post about our awesome trip to the Bronx Zoo sitting in my draft file. I had to post these Halloween pictures when they were the most applicable.

For the first time since being a couple Wes and I actually got into Halloween. We dressed up as something besides basketball players or hippies (which don't really count as they are really just who we are). This year Wes had the best idea come to him about an hour before our ward party. I'll show the pictures before explaining.

Yes, we went as NYC Tourists! Everyone loved it! We actually won the best "Newcomers" award for our costume. We were told that the only thing we were missing was a subway map that we stopped to read in the middle of traffic. We did have our cameras on hand to whip out and photograph our victory (too bad we moved too much and the picture didn't really come out well). It was also funny traveling to the church in our costumes. We had some very funny looks. 

It ended up being a good thing that Wes had our umbrella on hand though since this was what we had to travel to and from the party in: 

It isn't even November!!! The oddest thing about this random snow storm was the destruction. We have seen more destruction from this storm than we did with Hurricane Irene! There are trees broken in half everywhere (you can see some of them in the second photo. That is usually this cute little area full of benches)! The trees were just too heavy since the leaves haven't started to fall yet. Where did these amazing east coast falls I'm always hearing about go?? Luckily, the snow stopped last night and has been melting all day. I'm hoping it'll stay that way for a long time. I'm not ready for winter yet. It is only Halloween. Snow can't be an option until Thanksgiving. 

Hope you all have a wonderful Halloween!!
