Fall Fun

Kids at our traditional trip to Pumkinland to pick out our pumpkins.








 Thanksgiving Point Gardens had 2 days that we could bring our dogs.  The weather was beautiful!  And they had a fenced off area the dogs could run around...they were in doggie heaven.
 Mike happened to see a family activity in Lindon online when he was searching for something else. It is called Stringtown Nightmare Express. It is a free haunted train ride that a family started in 2005, and has become more and more popular each year.  We went on a Saturday night.  It wasn't too busy when we arrived, but one of the trains was having issues after we arrived, so the wait in line ended up being a lot longer than we anticipated.  Regardless the kids were very patient, and had a great time!




 Then on Sunday we took them up to Wheeler Farm...the weather was amazingly warm, so it was pretty busy, but finally found some parking and the kids had fun trick-or-treating at the farmer's market.  We found some tasty Italian dip, and some really delicious salsa!  Kids also had fun exploring the old farm equipment and checking out the ducks.  We ended the trip at the park, and got them some pizza before heading up to downtown to pick up our artwork at SLAC.












Finally found some artwork for this space!

Rowan's School Pictures

I never was very happy with the pictures that were taken at the kids last school, so I was pretty excited when I heard that our favorite photo place was doing the pictures at Rowan's new school.  When I got the prints though, it was of the 2nd picture below, and while it was a really cute picture of Rowan, I was disappointed that her head was cropped off.  When I got home I discovered they had put several other pictures on the CD that we purchased as an add on, and I just love them!!  Rowan also kept talking about wearing red glasses, and now I know what she was talking about...just adorable!
