Married Mormons

 Its no secret that I love me some Amazing Race. Many years did I contemplate who would be the perfect partner to run in a race around the world. And then I realized, I would NOT be a good partner to have. Me and high levels of stress do not mesh well. But - if I ever was on the race, we'd be the blue team - nicknamed "the mormons". I realize it isn't as catchy as the Cowboys, or the Pinkies, Long Hair-Don't Care, or even the "dating-on-and-off-ers". C'est la vie.

And lets be honest, it really is all about the kids. So my little Travelocity Gnome was by far the most darling costume at the ward trunk-or-treat party. He was a hit!!!

 Could you just die! And I loved that he held onto his beard. Such a cute gnome. Even though the ward thought he was a garden gnome, and we were dirty joggers, (cuz that goes together?) it was a hit all around.

 And I must give a shout out to...myself. And my DARLING Halloween monster cupcakes. Oh how I love Pinterest and its ability to get me to be fun and creative.
Happy Halloween friends.

Seriously adorable gnome. The way he's holding on to his beard is darling. Absolutely love it, and I love your costumes, too!! I had a friend and her Dad who auditioned for the Amazing Race and they came soooo close to getting on the show, but didn't make it. Also, major props for those cupcakes!! I am seriously impressed with them, they look awesome!
