"October, 十月"

Once upon a time, I blogged every little thing... 

Then, the evil dragon called "SCHOOL" sunk its teeth into me 

and I've been limping along, ever since. 

My family has a Japanese exchange student 

staying with them, at the moment.

We made him gut a gooey pumpkin {with Chan}, 

and bake an apple cake {with me}.

He's such a careful little helper.

Old family friends, the Cannons, 

came to sing and dine with us. 

{I'm afraid we were a bit too loud for sweet Yuima.}

Singing and smiling together. <3

Halloween Cruise!

Alex, Kate, Amy, me, Dominic, Stephanie, Kristen 

{and Cory, who was taking the picture}

sailed down the Provo River and heard spooky stories.

The lights on the water reminded me of Kyoto.

:< I miss my Japan.

Reflective pun'kins. :3

Pumpkin Land! 

Friends and I tackled the corn maze, 

to search for a magic bean. 

Alex.

Christopher.

Heather.

Kristen.

{Whose photos these are.}

After the maze, 

we played with the goats and rabbits. 

{And took their barnyard fragrance home, on our clothes.}

We're all like, 5-years-old, still. 

Heart. <3

Öktoberfest! 

Snowbird Resort is so LUSH and PRETTY.

Lovely lady Erin got flags on her face. 

{She's told me she'll give her heart to the boy 

who actually knows which flag this is.}

Es lebe Deutschland!

*phew* 

In descending order, that's been my October. 

Now, onward to tomorrow, 

when I'm filming Stringtown's spooky train ride~
Happy Halloween, loves!
