Just as we pulled onto the freeway to head back to Alyson's after swimming, I got a phone call from Lee saying he was in Salt Lake City. He thought he'd be there about an hour waiting for the medical crew to return from getting a patient to the hospital, and he hoped we'd be able to come spend that time with him. Unfortunately, we had to get home for several things that still needed to get done before trick-or-treating; fortunately, the adults agreed to watch my kids while they did those several things so I could go see Lee. I only got to see him for about 15-20 minutes, but I got to see him plane and meet the medical crew that was with him.
I took advantage of the opportunity to try out Lee's new headset and "pilot" the American
Medflight plane...

...While Lee took advantage of the opportunity to sit in the roomiest seat on the plane (where sick passengers are transported):

This is what the plane looks like from the outside. It's the same size as the plane he flew in Salmon, but with lots of upgrades.

I got back to
Aly's house just in time to eat dinner and help the kiddos get dressed for Halloween. Can I just take a moment to say that for dinner Alyson and Brad made some of the yummiest steak I've ever had! Not to mention the potatoes and yummy veggies -- delicious! I was so sad to be rushed up from the dinner table to help anxious children who did not fully appreciate the great meal!
We went trick-or-treating with Adam and Isaac. All Aly's kids were dressed as basketball players from "Team Farmer", which it said on the front. On the back, they all had numbers along with their first names. Alyson was dressed up as a referee -- very original and cute!
Morgan chose to stay with her fairy costume, but Brynne decided to skip the princess dress and wear her unicorn outfit for one last Halloween (she's outgrowing it):

My favorite costume of the night was my sister Lindsey. She was dressed up in a
BYU shirt with red long sleeves underneath. She decided to dress up as the "scariest" thing she could think of -- a
BYU and University of Utah fan! (She is a University of Wyoming graduate and is a devoted fan of theirs!). :)

So thanks to two sisters and a brother-in-law who were kind enough to invite me to their house even though I was sick, we had a wonderful Halloween!!! Thanks
Linz,
Aly & Brad!!! :)

Sounds like a wonderful time. Just looking at Lindsey scared me too - she must have a split personality!
Linz wants to comment that "both of us root for the pokes." Yep, she has a split personality alright.
What a fun day. Love the picture with Brynne's blue eyes peeking out from under that unicorn snout!
I NEVER thought I'd see Lindsey in a BYU shirt. Does she realize how easy it is to photoshop those sleeves to BYU blue? I should blow it up and send it to her for Christmas ... :)
