Fall Fun!

We absolutely love Fall!! It is so beautiful and the air seems so fresh and crisp.  Earlier in the summer we planted a pumkin plant so that Grey could watch his pumpkin grow all summer long. For the last month anytime someone would come over he wanted to take them outside to see his pumpkin. We finally cut the pumpkins off the vine last weekend. We let Greydon use the clippers and cut each one all by himself. It was a lot of fun. All of the pumpkins were pretty small and some of them did not turn very orange. Oh well, we did our best.

We also took a Ranger ride from Mantua up to the Avon area. The colors were amazing! We had a nice family picnic along the way. The bandanas probably look a little funny around our necks but there are parts of the trails that have a lot of other off road traffic and can get very dusty. We put the bandanas over our nose and mouth like bank robbers so we don’t have to eat the dust. It works great!

A trip to the cabin

We recently took a trip to our family cabin in Alta, WY, with my brother Jaret. It is so nice and peaceful up there. We were able to celebrate my Granny’s 81st birthday with her on October 8th. She made me my favorite dinner of Corned Beef and Cabbage YUMY!!.  On our way home we went to Bear World in Idaho. It was so neat! The bears are so close to you it is scary.  The petting zoo was awesome. Greydon got to pet an actual deer, pig, goats, chickens and a albino elk.  They also had a few amusement rides for him to go on. It was great!







Grandpa Rick's Farm

Rick has been staying on a nice lady’s farm this summer, He has been helping her out around the farm an exchange he can park his trailer there and stay for free. Darin, Greydon and I went there recently to check things out. Greydon loved the tractors and chasing the chickens.
