Some ount the days until it happens.. I count the days until its over... Its so close I can taste it. Oh wait, maybe thats the eggnog? Anyway.. Here is a lovely scatter of pictures from the events of the past month so you know we are still alive and kicking. :)

Cornbelly's Pumpkin Festival & Corn Maze

Fall is such a fun time. I love it!! There are a million things to do and see. This day we went with Ashley, David, Dallin, Mike, Hailey, Jenn, Christopher and Jillian. It was fun for the kids to get out and run around. Also.. great picture taking opportunities for me!!

Girls Witch Night

Samantha and I went to the Gardner Village witches night with her friend Madison, we all had a great time! It was crazy though.. I had no idea how crazy these women went with their costumes! Can't wait until next year so I can be one of the crazy ladys!! :)

Daddy's Work Party - Hogle Zoo!!

Ahhhh.. Who doesn't love a good day at the zoo??

Samantha's First Day of Second Grade

Second Grade?!?! How can that be??? I remember dropping her off for Kindergarten like.... yesterday!! :)

Hiking - Silver Lake

Ashley and David told us about this cool little hike up at Brighton, so we took the kids out for some much needed 'outdoor' time.

Niko was in a very rare 'camera pose' mood. I had to take full advantage.

The last picture of Niko looking into the water was great. There was a dead fish floating on the top and he looked up and announced it to everyone "Hey! Dead fish!" and then said, "I guess someone must have shot it," as if that could be the only cause of death! LOL. that kid is hilarious!
