Halloween Farm Fun - 10/21/2017

 We found a cute farm in Pleasant Grove that was all set up for Halloween.  We did tractor rides and went down fun slides on potato sacks.  The kids loved playing in the corn the best.  They filled up their shirts with it and laughed.





 These cute tractor swings were made out of old tires.

 We waited in a long line for the pony rides, but they thought it was worth it.  It was Cade's first pony ride.  He rode on the cutest, littlest, pony ever!

Grammy's Halloween Party - 10/20/2017

Trick or Treat!  Darth Vader, Storm trooper, and little monkey couldn't wait to get to Grammy and Grampy's Halloween party today!  It's something they talk about months before and months after!

 They always plan FUN stuff to do.  The decorated pumpkins with these cool plastic things.  

 Little monkey was having so much fun.  He was all smiles and laughs!

 Grammy tells THE BEST stories!  She does different voices, and actions and is so fun to listen to.  The kids' always love her chocolate chip ghost story.  Cade even sat there and listened to it!

Seriously he is the cutest monkey....look at that smile! 
They got to decorate cupcakes.  Eat one, or two...and take some home.  Cameron always concentrates so hard on whatever he does.  He focuses and wants to make the best of anything he is working on.  His cupcakes came out as masterpieces.  Mackenzie decorated hers so cute too.  I should have taken after pictures, but I think I was too busy making sure Cade wasn't smearing frosting all over the couch or eating all of his at one time!  Thanks again for a fun party Grammy.  You always have a good attitude and want to make things fun even when you are in pain, on crutches and don't feel good!

Visitors from Florida - 10/15/2017

 Grammy T and Grandpa Mike came to town for Molly's baptism.  It was fun hanging out with them for a few days.  Even if Grammy T was freezing the whole time!  They brought their dog Gracie.  Mackenzie was in heaven.  She loves dogs!  Especially cute ones that let her hold them.


 It was a nice enough day to go to the park and play!


 Braden and Kenzie went on the zip line together.

 Some of the cousins went down the slides as a train.  I got some funny videos.  The best was a slow motion one and they all shot out of the slide slow motion and laughing.
 Brother love!
Swinging with Grammy T

Haunted Half Marathon - 10/14/2017


Ummm it was cold today at the race!  We stayed on the bus until they made us get off.  The first few miles were slippery and icy, but then the roads were clear and the run was great!


I earned my "trilliogy" medal after this race.  If you run 3 half marathons, with Runtastic events, in the year you earn one.  I don't remember why my family wasn't there to cheer me on after but I am sure they had a good excuse  :)

A hiking we will go - 10/07/2017


 What a beautiful day to take advantage of!  I went on a nice 10 mile morning run down Big Cottonwood canyon.  Then we went hiking to Donut Falls with the Burgeners. 


Cade did pretty good in the hiking backpack, but he would only let ME carry it on my back.  Danielle tried to carry it to give me a break, but he cried the whole time she had him.  It wasn't worth it, so I took him back.  Speaking of back...mine hurt from carrying him the whole time!



The leaves were amazing!  Such a perfect fall day.  I am so happy we got to see the leaves changing at their peak!

We made it to the top.  The water falls were so pretty.  We enjoyed exploring around once we made it to the top.  Cade was loving jumping in the water and the mud.  He got soaking wet, which made for an interesting time carrying him in the pack down the mountain.

 This was the last time I got to use the backpack.  After I got Cade out of it, I set it down by the car.  I got Cade in the car and buckled him in his seat.  Then I went around to my side and got in and drove off.  I didn't realize I had left it right by the car until i got home and went to unpack the car.  I called up there to see if there was somehow I could find it but nobody had turned it in.  So sad!

Goofy Caders - 10/06/2017


Cade is such a silly kid.  His little personality comes out more and more every day.  He knew he was being silly when he put on daddy's hat!
