screamin' straight through texas [happy halloween!]

we had a fun time celebrating one of jon's favorite holiday's!! I think the best thing we did this month was get season passes to Six Flags!!! 
 six flags is right by our school, about 30 minutes from the house. 
we had such a fun time, there were hardly any people there so the lines were really short!
there was a target 5 minutes from our house in san diego. we would go there a lot if we were feeling blue, if we wanted to go out and not spend money, or if we wanted to buy decorations for holiday's. we don't go here as often because its further away now, but we still like to go walk around, it reminds us of home.
we had a pumpkin carving party with our roommates/homeowners/parents. it was very fun! kathy dressed up as a minion with all the other nurses at work! she is wearing grandpa's overalls. 
we moved into our new room this month!!!! it is three times bigger than the baby room we lived in for the first four months we were here. we get more privacy, more room and amazing views. we refer to it as 'the penthouse' and it gets a laugh like a quarter of the time. i'll write an entire post about the transformation of the room. it took a full 4 months. 
guess what, we hung out with our favorite people!!! lindsay and wes were our most favorite couple in san diego and we always have so much fun with them. we have the tradition of celebrating holiday's together and being a thousand miles away from each other did not change that. we bought the same treats, snacks and drinks so it was like we were hanging out in person and we just talked and laughed for hours. they even got their own virtual tour of our penthouse suite and you can too for a small fee. it was a lot of fun with them and we are already looking forward to our thanksgiving FaceTime extravaganza! we lovee them!
ewww we went to six flags again the last night it was open for halloween and it was so creepy! we went to this haunted house which was through a zombie infested high school. they did such a good job, the decorations were blowing my mind! it was just scary enough that i only had to plug one of my ears, but they did get me good a few times...
pumpkins in san diego did not last long, but pumpkins in san antonio only last a good 24 hours. 
enjoy this halloween SNL skit.
"bones!"
happy halloween!
p.s. my nephew is a sly little devil...
