Ever since Grandpa and Grandma moved to the cottage and left their old house in West Jordan we added a fun new thing to do at the traditional Halloween Party. The Haunted Hallows. The older boy put on quite the spook alley down in the Hallows at the golf course and Grandpa loads the kids onto the golf cart and they take turns going on spooky rides down there. Even us adults get to ride and check it out. This year they dressed up as a full on Big Foot, Dinosaur, a Clown, and a Big Bad Wolf. Oh my gosh it was hilarious and scary at the same time. We also ate donuts from a string and the kids all bobbed for apples. Which I will never forget because Tate, 5 year old Tate, missing four front teeth was more determined to snag that apple in the water than any kid I've ever seen in my life. Of course he was having a very difficult time snagging an apple but he would not give up for anything and kept his head under the water for EVER and just kept trying and trying for ever. Such determination and all of us cheered him on for the longest time. We finally wised up and cut the apple in half. That seemed to do the trick! I was so freaking proud of him. Another successful Downs Halloween Party in the books!
