Which Witch is Which???





It's that time of year again. Autumn is my favorite season of the year. There are so many activities and colors. There begins to get a chill in the air ( I love sweatshirt weather :)), it's time to can all of the great harvest, and of course soccer game after soccer game. Okay and some football; we love the Utah games with you Blaine! The only downfall is that the season doesn't last long enough where we live. Winter comes too fast!!! So we try to get as much Fall as we can in the short amount of time we get it.


We went to Gardner Village. I love the quaint little shops and yummy bakery. Today though, was devoted to the witches; okay and the bakery. We started out counting each of them. That didn't last long. I guess it doesn't matter. They have enough to see a new one everytime you turn around. Our favorite was the airport they had set up. They had a witch on her broom coming in for a landing, one giving direction with those light sticks, and another getting ready to take off. All were set up high on a building and in the air. Very fun!!

Donut Falls




This is our annual hike to Donut Falls. It was so much fun. We didn't make it to the falls this time because we went with the purpose to take pictures for the school reflection contest. You know how kids are, they want to take a picture or two of every tree, rock, bug, cloud, and the list goes on. I wanted them to be creative and take their own so needless to say we doddled along our way and time was cut short. Our family really enjoys the outdoors. In fact I usually have to drag the kids indoors once in a while. This adventure will go down as one of my favorite so far!
