On Halloween day we took our annual trip to Julian. Our good friends, Heidi and Gordon, came with us. It was nice to have their company! We were far enough in the mountains that the leaves on the trees were starting to change colors. It made me a little homesick to see them but I quickly got over that when I started getting car sick from winding around the curvy roads. I think by the time we got there I was a little green. But the fresh air did wonders! Julian is a little gold mining town that has a apple festival in the fall. When you go you have to get their delicious apple pie and cider, which we did! Since it was Halloween there were kids trick-or-treating at all of the stores and shops. So, Mason got in on the action too and came out with a handful of candy. We were there for only a couple of hours but it was just enough to walk around and see the sights. On our way back Heidi spotted some giant pine cones, so we had to stop and pick up a few. Bowen was a little too sleepy to drive, so I more than willingly offered to drive so I wouldn't get sick again. What a fun little trip! 
In front of Mom's Pies. The best! We got an apple boysenberry and it was delicious! 
Bowen was anxiously checking football scores throughout the day...
We were wiped out, but that evening we dressed Mason up and took him trick or treating to just a couple houses. One stop was a family in our ward, the Braziers. They give out regular size candy bars, so we HAD to go! LOL! It was fun to visit them for a little bit. Afterwards we went over to our former bishops house for some homemade chili. Every Halloween they make a HUGE pot of chili and invite anyone and everyone over. We stayed there a few hours until Mason was delirious and needed to get to bed. It was such a fun day!
