Homesick...

I went with my Dad and brothers to the Utah/Louisville game way back in September...It made me a little homesick for the great job I had at the U and all the people I used to work with. I realized how much I really miss all the crazy stress of football season and all the fun we had in the office and working the games. Then I remembered why I wasn't doing all of that anymore...and it was worth it!

My cute brothers..Rob and Clintos
The reason for it all!!
Her favorite place to sit is on the step up to the landing at the bottom of the stairs. Take note of the pigtails...cute huh??

All the "Fall" stuff

We are a little behind, but I wanted to make sure to include all our October activities. So, here they are in the correct order...so start from the bottom if you want to see them in order. There are A LOT of pictures...sorry about that!

Costume Fun

I didn't realize until this year that there are SO many other times for kids to wear their costumes than just Halloween night. Maycee was just learning the ropes this year, so she only dressed up three times. First, we headed to the Daybreak trunk or treat...next it was the trunk or treat at KC's parents ward...and finally Halloween (not just the night, pretty much all day).

Pumpkins everywhere!

There is a great pumpkin patch down the street from our house. Such a fun tradition we started last year with the Osmonds! Maycee loved the wheelbarrow and the corn maze. Didn't seem to care which pumpkin we chose for her...but tried to pick up few that were the same size as her. Thanks for the fun night Osmonds!
Maycee rarely lets kids hold her had...so cute! These two are such good friends!

Hop in for a ride Dad...

Let me just pick up this one...
Paityn came to help pick it up.

Showing me which way to go in the corn maze...
Maycee was obsessed with the tractors...guess we have country gal on our hands!

Which old Witch?

Just like most every one in the Salt Lake Valley we headed over to Gardner Village to take a gander a the witches. Maycee wasn't too excited about the witches...pretty scared of them actually. By the end she was okay with them as long as there was a fence between her and those crazy looking ladies!!

Classic photo...
Maycee is FREAKING out cuz she it too close to the witch
Bailey's just chillin in her hot sunglasses and

Maycee thought this witch was REALLY silly!!
Until next year ladies...

Red, Gold, Yellow, Orange

We took a little drive up Millcreek Canyon one Sunday to see the leaves. It was gorgeous, but we realized we may need to go a bit sooner next year. Maycee loved picking up all the leaves and splashing in the cold creek!
Utah in the Fall...doesn't get much better than this!!
