Red Barn

We had yet another fun fall adventure. We went to the Red Barn in Santaquin for some apple cider donuts and some a little play time on the slide. These slides are honestly so awesome, all 3 of us went down probably 30 times.

my beloved apple cider donuts!

 

Discovery

This was our first time going to the children's museum in Salt Lake, and we will definitely be going back. It was such a fun day, we also got to go to the Planetarium and City Creek. Sometimes I forget how fun the city can be.

Wes and Kloe grocery shopping, just like an old married couple

Natalie and McKinley

a real helecopter to play in

hugging on the moon at the Clark Planetarium, these two...they really have a brother/sister type relationship, hugging one minute fighting the next.

kids on Mars

what a surprise, Clifford showed up at the museum. Wes seriously about died, but he did wish that T-bone was there too.

it was even fun for the little one

I can not wait to go back to City Creek without kids, it is such a cool place.

waiting for the Trax

on Trax, Wes said this was his favorite part of the day

So that was our super fun day in the city with some of our best friends!

Crafts & Standing

So, yesterday started off as a boring day so we did some halloween crafts. First is a cute candy corn wreath


then a haunted house

the masterpieces! After the art projects we went swimming at the Lehi Legacy Center. I don't have any pictures from that though.

Natty started pulling herself up yesterday all by herself. That was the day she turned 8 months, by the way.

 

Pumpkin Paintin'

I found a cute idea on pinterest on how to decorate a pumpkin, which seemed easy enough that even Wes could do it. He kept saying "this is awesome!" It really was so fun and we will probably do this a lot, since I hate carving pumpkins.

 

 

 

finished! A work of art

 

Super Hero

Did I ever mention that my son is OBSESSED with superheroes. I mean really obsessed. When we go to the store he asks for everything to be on his christmas and birthday list. I actually think it is so cute even though I hate character stuff. I have pretty much just given in to this. I can't believe this is the only picture I have of him in a costume (he also has iron man and spiderman). I'll be sure to take more so I don't forget this funny time in his life.

Our Weekend

First of all, Wes rarely plays with his toys. For some reason he has to be entertained by someone ALL-THE-TIME, so I put Natalie alone in her room for a little bit everyday so maybe she will learn to play by herself. Anyway, she made her way to Wes' very messy room and she had more fun than he ever does.


please ignore her immodesty :)

Wes and I made this for the front door. I dismantled a very very ugly wall hanging, we painted it then hung the spider webs and sign. I love it and I love that Wes really helped me with it.

We went on a little date to get frozen yogurt, ready to hear what was on his...pomagranite raspberry sorbet, fruit snacks, swedish fish, gummy worms, m&ms, trix, marshmallows, mike and ikes, bobo balls and I think that's all. Does that sound delicious or what?

While Josh was at Priesthood with his dad we went to Cornbelly's with Aaden and Michelle and Josh's mom.

crawling through the hay maze, I had to put that piece of corn in front of her to make her crawl. haha

bouncing away, by the way it was freezing there and we were not really prepared. Oh well Wes had a great time and that's all that matters.

The hat Natalie is wearing really is cute but Lin for some reason pulled it up so it looks weird in the picture.

Sunday morning breakfast, halloween french toast. Yummy yummy

I swear Josh was with us this whole weekend, I hate that we never take pictures with him. Let me just brag for a minute about him. He got a promotion at work the other day and I could not be prouder of him. I know he has wanted a different position for a while and he finally got it. More money and more vacation time, hooray! The only downfall is it's in the Salt Lake office so he wont be a stones throw away anymore. So happy for my Joshy!

Hee Haw Farms

It has become a tradition of ours to go to Hee Haws every fall and every spring. This time it was Wes' field trip with school. His very first field trip ever. Kloe got to come too, which was fun.

someone else was having a fun time

This is Wes' absolute favorite thing to do a the farm. He honestly could go down this slide 95 gazillion times and never get sick of it

 

 

All the fun wore her out

Wes and Klo going down together

Later on we went to Macey's and they were having a tailgate party with games and bounce houses (that were free) and .25cent cotton candy. I love free entertainment!

Josh and Wes carved his pumpkin he got from Hee Haw's. I know it wont last until Halloween, but he really wanted to carve it. However, when he realized you have to touch the guts he changed his mind and Josh did the rest. I absolutely hate carving pumpkins and I don't even like to be in the room (it makes me gag)

 

 I didn't get a picture of the finished product. It doesn't look anything like this, but Wes loves it anyway.
