Friends Visit & Haunted Lagoon

How exciting to see friends from home!  Friday night we were taking tickets at the Luau when Scott & Kathy Lemon came through our line.  They were neighbors of ours a long time ago and are now members in my daughter, Ranay's, ward.  It was great to visit with them.

Our friends, Kent & Dixie Cutforth arrived Thursday.  We enjoyed showing them around the PCC & BYUH Campus. It was wonderful to catch up on family news from home and enjoyed dinner with them at Prime Dining.  We are grateful they made room in their bags to bring Elder Reynolds his favorite blueberry jam from the LDS Cannery.  Yum! 
Halloween at the Give & Take
 

During the month of October, the waters all around the PCC where they normally put on shows, etc. turns into a Haunted Lagoonhttp://www.hauntedlagoon.com/
This is quite a big deal here at the PCC.  We have been serving off and on in the evenings at this Haunted Lagoon, serving noodles and hot chocolate.  We had the opportunity to take a spooky ride on the boats at the Haunted Lagoon and enjoyed experiencing first hand (on the water) the Haunted Lagoon. 
 
Nov. 3 - There was a Haunted Lagoon Celebration.  There were about 1,000 kids, missionaries, and volunteers from the local area meeting together enjoying one last "hoorrah" after Haunted Lagoon finally ended Oct. 31.  Lots of food, fun, dancing etc.
These are scary swamp people.  Notice how tall!  They walked around on stilts every nite for 4-5 hrs. Where would mature folks like us experience such Halloween fun...........only as missionaries @ the PCC in Hawaii!
