Carving Pumpkins

On Friday night we got together with some friends and decided to carve pumpkins. The boys weren't too excited but ended up having a good time in the end. Travis carved his to look like a golf ball and club, it was pretty creative. I will be excited to put them out on Halloween, lets just hope they don't end up in the middle of the street!

On Saturday, Travis and I went to Lagoon for Frightmares and had a really good time. We didn't make it into any of the Haunted Houses since the line was so long, but we were able to ride all of the good rides and even got stuck at the top of Colossus for awhile.

Our weekend ended with a big Halloween dinner with my family at our house. We ate Jello Brain Salad, Finger Breadsticks and Pumpkin Cake. It was a nice way to Celebrate Halloween!

Our Nephews

On Friday, we were able to spend a few minutes playing with our nephews, Kaden and Keegan. They live in Wyoming, so we don't get to see them alot, but when we do its always fun. They enjoyed chasing Hudson and Travis around the backyard for awhile. Hopefully we wore them out enough so that they slept the whole way home!

A Very Cold Weekend...

This past Friday we left to go to Denver for the weekend. We stayed in Green River, Wyoming Friday night at Travis' parents house and when we woke up in the morning it was a complete blizzard.

We drove to Laramie for the Utah vs Wyoming game and sat in the cold with a 5 degree wind chill for 3 hours, but it was a great game cause Utah won...sorry hun!

(It was really cold, but we had great seats. Third row and 40 yard Line)

We drove into Denver on Saturday night and on Sunday we went to the Broncos vs Jacksonville game. This game too was freezing cold and the Broncos lost so it was kind of a disappointment, but it is always fun to be in an NFL stadium and to see the Broncos play live.

The whole weekend went by really fast but it was fun and really nice to get away for a few days.

Fall

I cannot believe that it is Fall already. I am kinda sad to see Summer go, since it didnt seem that it was here that long. I'm going to miss the long days and of course the warmth. I am excited though when the leaves change color, its just so pretty. I also enjoy all of the holidays that are coming up. We decorated our house for Halloween last week and we now have the scariest house on the street, I think the kids in the neighborhood are going to love it. We will definetly hit up a couple of Haunted Houses and Frightmares too to celebrate the holiday! I hope that we can enjoy some Fall and that Winter doesnt come too soon.

The Zoo

Last week Trav and I decided to go to the Zoo. We don't have any kids of our own to take with us so we invited our friends Craig and Sarah and their baby, so we all had an excuse to go. It was really fun. I loved seeing the white alligator and of course the bears, zebras and giraffe's...Travs favorite was the ape whose face looked like a toilet seat. It was a fun day, I'm glad we went. (Sorry the pictures are blurry, I had the camera on the wrong setting...oops.)
