Halloween or something like it

Ok I know I don't really update this thing to often. But when you get to be a woman of my age, there really isn't a whole lot going on. Literally have to be to work by 7:30, find myself home by 5 or 5:30 depending on traffic, greet Harley, give Kelly a hug, go work out (or nap whatever I feel like, more than likely a nap), maybe cook dinner and start all over the next day. Do you ever feel your life has hit one of those ruts? Blah. So if you have any motivational thoughts for me go ahead and post me a little comment. Seriously feeling like I hit a wall in life. Blah again.
Well the willard friends told us they were going to do a haunted house for charity this year. I was doubtful they would pull it off in two weeks (it's ok to say this because I already told them), but I was really surprised when I pulled up the Friday afternoon before Halloween to find a haunted house in almost full swing. There were some last minute things going up, but by 7 there were people waiting to go in. Opening night was fun. I got to take tickets and be a "guide". Legally there had to be someone who went through with every group in case of emergencies and what not. I was impressed, people were scared, screaming and someone ran out half way through. Go us!! Saturday night some volunteers couldn't make it so I helped out. I got to be in the darkest room of all, all by myself, in a really old supposedly haunted building. You know those old indian schools in Brigham? Ya that's where we were. But I did not see anything, or get that creepy feeling. But many prayers in my head were said. Anyway the second night turned out to be a success and this haunted house will probably happen again next year.
Other than that I don't know we what we have been up to. I have been taking pictures here and there. Since I am working full time I haven't been marketing my photography really. But I still do pictures for friends and family. It's still something I love, but in these tough times mamma's gotta help bring in the dough.
I still refuse to get a facebook account, but I admit I look at Kelly's here and there. I think I would waste a lot of time on there. So if you want to get in touch with me this might have to be it for awhile or look up Kelly.
Here are pictures for you. Enjoy!


Imagine this room pitch black and me in a white ghost mask trying to scare you. I mostly just screamed at people.

Hanging the "meat bags". This was the chainsaw room.

Me in a scary mask. Whatever

The swamp room.

And a cool sunset up there.
