Moving In…
I moved in with Bryan a little over 4 weeks ago, and I love living with him. The month before I was going to move in flew by because I was so busy at work. But things settled down at work just in time for me to start packing. So Heather and I packed our cars and started the big move.
The day Bryan signed the offer on our house.
Our first snow storm.
Heather and I have lived together for close to 2 years. We’ve had so many good times in the Foothill house. Heather is my best friend and I’m so glad we got to share those experiences together. I’ll miss living with Heather but I’m looking forward to starting my life with Bryan. And who knows maybe I’ll get Heather to move to Bountiful so she’s closer to us. Anyway thanks for putting up with me for so long Heather.

Happy Halloween….
Bryan and I had our first Halloween together in our house. So we got to decorate and pass out candy to all the neighbor kids. Of course I dressed up as a witch. Bryan didn't want to dress-up but I did get him to put on my cape. We had a lot of fun passing out the candy, and we had a pretty steady stream of kids all night.
Happy Halloween!

Moved…and Halloween…
Happy Halloween!
Today is one of my all time favorite holidays and I’m positively dying for an elementary school costume parade or a party full of my Columbus lovelies. As it is, Kyle and I will be celebrating the holiday quietly by giving out candy to the 300+ trick-r-treaters we’re expecting. (Lots of kids in Utah, folks.) Since we’re not partying it up or costuming out, I’ll have to feed my need for grease paint with a few Halloween flashbacks…

Happy Halloween!Today is one of my all time favorite holidays
I was driving by my parents and literally was stopped in the middle of the road by this. I thought it was cool and at the same time sooo creepy so I snapped this pic. “Am I superstitious?” I thought as the black cat stared me in the eye…. I don’t know but it definitely made me think about it! Funny cause I was just thinking today about all the road blocks and bad luck I’ve been having. GREAT.
… What do you do if you are cursed?
I looked up some Halloween superstitions and guess what was first on the list!
Superstitions & Bad Luck Omens
Black cats have long been believed to be a supernatural omen since the witch hunts of the middle ages when cats were thought to be connected to evil. Since then, it is considered bad luck if a black cat crosses your path.
An ancient myth our ancestors believed was that the image in a mirror is our actual soul. A broken mirror represented the soul being astray from your body. To break the spell of misfortune, you must wait seven hours (one for each year of bad luck) before picking up the broken pieces, and bury them outside in the moonlight.
In the days before the gallows, criminals were hung from the top rung of a ladder and their spirits were believed to linger underneath. Common folklore has it to be bad luck to walk beneath an open ladder and pass through the triangle of evil ghosts and spirits.
If an owl looks in your window or if you seeing one in the daylight bad luck and death will bestow you.
At one time salt was a rare commodity and thought to have magical powers. It was unfortunate to spill salt and said to foretell family disarray and death. To ward off bad luck, throw a pinch over your shoulder and all will be well.
Sparrows are thought to carry the souls of the dead and it is believed to bring bad luck if you kill one.
The fear of the number 13 is still common today, and avoided in many different ways. Some buildings still do not have an official 13th floor and many people avoid driving or going anywhere on Friday the 13th.
Let’s get me some salt and hope I can stay away from mirrors and ladders now!
Happy Halloween!
