Pumpkins!!

The kids were so excited for our annual trip to the pumpkin patch!! Now that they are a little older, they had even more fun than last time! We played in the corn pit, played in the hay maze, and climbed the hay tower! We even looked at the (stinky) animals! We found some pretty good pumpkins and were happy to bring them home!

I sat with the kids at the computer and let them pick what they wanted on their pumpkins. They helped scoop out the guts and watched as Lucas and I carved. Our final product ended up being a hit with the trick-or-treaters!!

We were a family of pirates this year! The kids had a lot of fun trick-or-treating and Madilyn really got the concept of it this year! She had even more fun passing out candy though!!

Halloween quesadillas!

"Look, Mom!!" 

Our Anniversary Weekend

This year was Lucas's turn to plan our Anniversary. He told me to pack an over-night bag and to be ready to go. In the morning he brought us home Kneaders french toast for breakfast! It was delicious, as always! We packed up and headed out. We went into the mountains and ended up in Park City. We went ahead and made it a family weekend by bringing the kids along since we don't have their grandparents around to watch them overnight. Lucas booked us a room at the Park City Mountainside Resort. It was so nice and very family friendly! Our room was more like a condo and had a view of the alpine slide and coaster.

We enjoyed walking around Main Street and exploring all the little shops. We had dinner reservations at the Wild Horse and had no idea what a fancy restaurant it really was. It was delicious, by the way! 

When we returned to the resort we went for a night swim. The pool area was amazing! They had pretty lights all over and there were at least 5 different hot tubs with waterfalls and color-changing lights in the water.

The next morning we went to get brunch at a place called Squatters and headed home. We took a scenic drive on the way home to see all the fall leaves. It was beautiful!
