A Little Taste of Fall

Well, I thought I was sure to be done making trips to Utah this year after Breyonna's birthday party up there in September. However, we managed to squeeze in one more final trip. I've been getting a bit tired of taking the long 8 hour trip alone so many times this year. Even with how good the kids are, the miles wear me down. So, i really thought we wouldn't return until next year.

My mother in law came to AZ two weekends ago for my nephews baptism. She was heading home alone the following Monday. So, I figured it would be a great way to make it up to play in the Fall weather and to visit family. I was also pleased because it just so happened to be the week of mine and my siblings 12th baptism anniversary and we have tried to keep the tradition of celebrating it together. So it was nice to be there for that.

Also, unknowingly, we were able to be in Utah when my brother got to find out that he was having two baby boys who will be joining his family by this coming February!! That is so exciting!!


I was a bit limited on where we could go and what we could do because I didn't have a car up there. However, we still managed to have some good fun.

Played at the AZ Cliff Dwellers. 

We went to my a birthday party for my cousins son.

Played at the park.

Went with my sister and the kids to watch Hotel Transylvania.

 Visited the St. George Temple Grounds.

Did a whole lot of playing in the leaves.

Loved spending time with my little nephew who is growing up so fast!!

My cute little grandparent!!

Visited family and went pumpkin picking at my grandparents home.

David came the following Friday. He and his boss happened to have some meetings in Las Vegas. So after their work was done there, his boss flew home to Phoenix and David drove the rest of the way to visit Utah and to take us back home to AZ.

We're fighting the battle against allergies and colds now. But, it was so wonderful to have a little taste of Fall this year.
