ACANAAN LAKE LAVAIL
Acanaan Lake LaVail was born at home in Santa Fe on January 27th, 1993, to Lauren and Adam LaVail. A happy, inquisitive, beautiful baby, he loved other children and yearned to join their play. His first word was "button". When he was three, his brother Gabriel was born. The brothers played and fought like tiger cubs.

He loved animals, spicy food, magic, nature, massages, family gatherings, Harry Potter, video games, and Halloween with his mother's elaborate homemade costumes.

PROVO -- It appears I've been looking at Halloween wrong for years.

One of my favorite days is just around the corner. I love Halloween because it provides an opportunity to express our creativity and try on a different identity for a few hours.
Growing up, my mother made my Halloween costumes. I don't recall ever having an off-the-shelf costume. My all-time-favorite mom-made Halloween costume was the pumpkin. Using orange cloth stretched over a wire frame and stuffed with newspaper, she fashioned a big, plump pumpkin. I wore orange tights and a green hat to finish it off in style.
