Pumpkin Time

We went to Logan for a couple of days and were so excited that it was the pumpkin walk!  We loved going to the pumpkin walk when we lived up there.  There are lots of different scenes all made with pumpkins, and then carved pumpkins line the sidewalks.  This scene is of a farmer and his animals.  You can see that his face is a pumpkin which has been painted.   
We were able to hang out with Cliff's brother and his wife.  We loved spending time with them and had a great time!
This was my favorite scene at the pumpkin walk.  It's Noah's Ark.  They had every animal there made out of pumpkins and gourds.  You can see in the picture elephants, giraffes, raccoons, bears, pigs, penguins, monkeys, caterpillars, frogs, panda bears, lion, birds, and tigers.  They also had crocodiles, lady bugs, mice, swan, and a lot of others all made of pumpkins!  


We went with my mom, Annie, Alison, and Landon to the pumpkin patch.  Josh loves the pumpkins!  He had fun touching them and trying to pick them up.  He hardly could pick the little one up that is right underneath him.  He loved going on the ride behind the tractor too!

Go Cougars!

It's time to party when BYU has a football game!  We have been having tailgate parties before everyone heads off to the stadium.  It has been fun and it's amazing how fast the food disappears!  Go Cougars!!!

Deer Hunt


Cliff got to go on the deer hunt this year.  He had a great time with all the boys, even though they came home empty handed.

Fishlake and Conference



We went to Fishlake over Conference weekend.  It was beautiful!  The leaves were yellow, red and orange, and it snowed on Saturday.  Cliff took some pictures of the leaves and mountains and we got some really pretty shots.  I love that you can see the colored leaves of the aspens, the snow covered pine trees and the blue sky!  

One of our favorite messages of conference was Elder Joseph B Wirthlin's talk.  It seems like everyday we say, "Come what may and love it" and we try to laugh instead of getting flustered.  We've said it about our truck when it had problems, Josh throwing plates to the floor and seeing it shatter into many pieces, and we as daily clean him up after gags his food up.
