gardener village witches

We had so much fun going to gardener village to see the witches. Da went with us and had to show us scouts witch costume before we went. Pretty cute.

Getting ready to start our scavenger hunt for the witches.

My mom all dressed up in her witches costume. She's pretty cute too!

The green witch and the green toad.

Trying on witches hats. 

We love seeing the witches. One of these days maybe we'll make it back to see the elves.

temple square

We had a great time with Trudy and her kids, and Katie at temple square.  It is always so fun for the kids to get together with their cousins, they get along so well.  The girls had a sleepover the night before and had a lot of fun.

We took a tour of the conference center.  This was one of the main reasons I wanted to take the kids to temple square.  I wanted to show them the conference center after we just watched general conference on tv that takes place here.  I wanted them to make the connection that it is so close to us.  It will be fun in April when we watch conference again, and hopefully they will remember walking around the same place the apostle and prophet speak to us.

A cool mirror.

Up on the roof of the conference center. There are some amazing views up there!

Check out Dallen. Little monkey climber. The is not the edge of the building, you can see the outside edge past him.  But he did start to climb up on the outer edge after we left this spot.  I called his name maybe a little too loud and I think I scared him a little. He got to hold daddy's hand after that.  We did lift him up so he could see why we were a little scared, and he got scared too. 

A view of the temple.

One with the cousins.

We ate lunch by the joseph memorial building.  A boys table and a girls table. 

It was a fun day and we enjoyed being with our cousins!

pumpkin patch

We found a fun pumpkin patch to go to this year.  Last year we never got around to making it to a pumpkin patch with moving into our house and we had about 20 pumpkins grow in our garden. So we were excited this year to carry on our tradition we had in Albuquerque of going to a pumpkin patch to get our pumpkins.

We rode a fun hay ride out to the pumpkin patch.

Then we had fun finding the perfect pumpkins to take home.

After we found our pumpkins we had to wait in line to ride our hayride back for about 20 minutes. 

Plenty of time to get all dirty playing in the dirt.

When we got back they had these fun carts to get your pumpkins to the car.  The younger one that it was a ride for them!

After we found our pumpkins we explored the farm a little more.  They had these fun pictures to take your picture in. 

They also had some other fun game to play.

We found this big gorilla in the store that had candy in the bowl. The kids thought that was cool.

We had a great time and are looking forward to going back next year!
