Halloween





Can I just make one thing very clear- I love Jess with all my heart. However, I tend to be a little more outgoing than him, and Halloween and/or dressing up would be one of those instances. We had a Halloween party/Chili cook-off to attend, and I started asking Jess about what he wanted to dress up as. "Dress up?" he asked me, as if it were the most absurd thought I had ever come up with (and believe me, I have some pretty absured ideas!). "I am not dressing up." he proclaimed. Thus began my quest of costumes that I could convince Jess to dress up in. Finally, he agreed to be a "patient" if I grabbed a gown from work. So, I wore my work clothes and Jess stuck a band-aid on his forehead, and voila! Insta-costume. Most people asked me if I had come straight from work, then they saw Jess wearing a gown and figured it out. At least he was burned from the football game that day-usually he really is my patient and I have to go retrieve him from some biking accident or care for turf burns covering 25% of his extremities. As much as I love laboring women, Jess will always be my favorite patient!!

My husband is so much the same exact way! We never dress up. Bummer!

Well Mel, you have to admit, we were crazy enough to go along with Jodi and Joe and dress up for the "Prince Ali" parade, and then I know if you still had have been in Utah you would have dressed up for the Pirates premiere! Oh the memories! It looks like you had fun and I am glad that Jess went along for the fun!
