HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!

Its been a long time since i last wrote, but i feel like nothing exciting has happened to write about it till now! yesterday was haloween! i havent ever been too excited about halloween since i stopped trick-or-treating, but this year we got invited to a halloween party so we thought we would dress up! our ward is a ward of brand new families, most of the couples have been married 2 or 3 years so they have little ones, so our ward had a trunk or treat night on thursday! we didnt use our real trunks cause it would be too cold for the babies out side, so we just set up tables in the gym. It was fun to see all the babies dressed up! they were SOOO cute! it made me want one so i could dress one up cute too! it was fun to see what everyone else came up with for costumes too! jared and i were Thing 1 and Thing 2 from Dr. Suess. i thought our costumes turned out rather cute! jared loved the blue hair thing! jared met a kid in his spanish class when he was going to school in idaho falls and he lives up here in rexburg with his wife and invited us to a halloween party. i was a little nervous going since we didnt know anyone but them, but it was a ton of fun and we met some really nice and fun people! we had food and played games and me and jared almost won the best couple costume, but the salt and pepper couple won instead... oh well better luck next year! we were just glad to go out and do something fun for halloween! i missed living in a nieghborhood and seeing all the trick-or-treaters though cause i like to see all the kids dressed up! anyways.... now its november 1, i cant even believe it! time has gone by so fast!!! now that halloween is over, im anxious for the holiday season to start! i want to put up my christmas tree and decorate for christmas and listen to christmas music! but i think ill wait just a little longer! other news happening up here in the burg.... we are looking for a cheap 2nd car to buy. jared and i both have next semester off and we were planning on just going back to the job we had over the summer making 11.34 an hour, but they dont have any room for us in the lab cause they have hired more people so no we are probably going to have to get 2 different jobs. im looking into substitute teaching and jared isnt sure what he is going to do. we found a cheap car on craigs list that we are gonna go look at today its an older camry but they are asking 2900 and he said it could probably even go for 2500 so we'll go look at it to see how beat up it is. i just need a cheap car to get around town, and then we still have jared's newer car. i just wish if we could get a new nice car if we are gonna get a new car, but i can wait till we graduate and have real jobs. i dont know if i mentioned jared changed his major from mechanical engineering to business finance. hopefully he will like that better! i think thats about all from us for now!

I saw a decent car for $1000 in our church parking lot the other day. I can see if I can find it again for you. It was a honda... I'll keep my eyes open. We're selling our 4 runner but I don't know if you'd be interested. Its more than what you have listed as a price range though.

Your guy's costumes are great!!!! I hope you had a good time!!!
