Rexburg Temple at Sunset, and Yummy "Bat Cave" Cake!

Marc is taking a digital photography class this semester. Since we both really love to take pictures it has been a fun thing to find places around town and take pictures. Thursday night there was an amazing sunset, and we were hoping that Friday night would bring the same. So, we packed up the camera and tripod and headed for the Temple. We got some pretty good shots, but unfortunately they turned out pretty grainy. Marc wants to play with them in Photoshop, but I was looking at some of them today and decided I would post a few. We might go again, but when we left the Temple a little after 7 it was in the 30's, so we will see if we get back up there soon or not. This is one we took right after we got there, the sun was just starting to set, but the silhouette of the Temple it so pretty!

This is us standing in the field, Marc had to run out to me, the field was so dusty! We both left with messy shoes, and quite the rock collection, there were a ton in my shoes!

We are so blessed to have such a beautiful place so close to us!

We also had our ward Halloween party Saturday night. We made a yummy chocolate bundt cake, that Marc calls "The Chase Family Secret Recipe" We decided that since there was a dessert contest we would get a little creative with the cake. We called it the bat cave. We put a bat stencil on it and powder sugar to add a few bats on it, then we put dry ice in the middle, unfortunately we put too much in the cup so that when we added water it froze into one solid block! The cake looked so lonely on the plate so we added a few candy corn around it! Unfortunately we didn't win, but I promise, this is more than just a chocolate cake! It is so yummy! Marc was so glad we had some left, he isn't very good at sharing yummy treats with others!
