A most unusual Halloween

 Here in Nevada Halloween Day is also Nevada Day...an official no school holiday.   That combined with a teacher prep day(s) and the weekend gives the kids 4-5 day of no school.  So for years several families in the ward head to Carlsbad Beach State Park in California for these days off.   This year with no family here and not visiting family elsewhere we decided to join in.

What a fun way to spend Halloween!
Friday night dinner...Shrimp boil. 
Nightly jamming around the fire. 
Saturday morning started with a 5k run through the campground.

Lots of relaxing and just snoozing on the beach
Karl cooking is dutch oven potatoes for the BBQ Rib dinner on Saturday.
 
Sunset was just happening as Karl was cooking.
 The teenagers from our group were having a rousing game of something.
Then it turned in to a beach sunset photo shoot.
 
 
Halloween was fun. Campers strung lights and decoration and carved pumpkins. Kids and adults dressed up and went from campsite to campsite trick or treating. It was too dark for good photos so I just enjoyed the festivities.

 
 Sunday morning walk on the beach before church
 The stairs down to the beach were a workout.
It was such a fun weekend.   The only thing that would have been better would have been to have our kids and little people with us...then it would have been perfect!
