FALL is FULL of FANTASTIC fun!

We had a great long weekend! Thursday we did a little Christmas shopping then met my family in Logan for the PUMPKIN WALK! I went one time in college for an FHE and ever since then I've been hooked! (For those of you who've never been, they use pumpkins to make scenes. Sounds slightly lame, but once you go, you'll think it's amazing!)
How cool is this tree made from corn (and Crystal of course)!


Monsters Inc & Madagascar
They have one area with carved pumpkins. I guess there are 2 areas - this one with the cool carvings and then the whole path has hay bales with carved pumpkins lit lining the paths.

Friday we went to the PARK. My little guy is TOO independent - he won't hold my hand to walk in the park, he wants to go by himself.
Then, since Daddy couldn't go to work because they were doing computer maintenance, we met up with my bestest friend Jen to celebrate her birthday!
Tad loved the MAYAN and watching the water and divers.
Then we found a new place I may ---- probably am hooked on! FROGURT! It's self serve frozen yogurt (16 different flavors) and a 50 toppings. You make your own and pay per ounce!

I met Jen my first year of college and I swear we were meant to be twins!
Saturday morning Fred, Tad & I took some of the scouts for a HIKE.... in the rain.
Tad of course loved it. Fred & I realized how out of shape and old we are!!! It rained harder the further up we went and stopped when we got back down. The boys did awesome - I figured they'd run ahead of us, but they were good about stopping and waiting until they could see one of us before running further.

Saturday night we went to the GRIZZLIES HOCKEY GAME with Crystal and one of her old roomies. First we stopped for BBQ, then off to the game. The seats were fantastic, the game was pretty good, they won (6-4), but the best part was when the other team's goalie went to hit the puck down the ice and pegged his own team member in the head. :} I was disappointed there weren't more fights- I guess we'll have to stick to college games!
Sunday we went to Fred's parents' for HOMEMADE RAVIOLI!
and.... Monday our BASEMENT FLOODED because of all the rain. :}

I miss the pumpkin walk! That was seriously one of my favorites in the fall in Logan. I'm begging you to post pictures every year since I probably can't justify driving from Blanding to Logan just for the pumpkin walk. I'm now totally dependent upon you.
