Temple Square, SLC

SLC

We took a trip to SLC the second weekend in December to stay with Jordan while he was training for his new Verison job. The car ride was extra long for Mataya. I couldn't even get a smile out of her.

...but she looks so funny!

Mataya had a Thanksgiving Feast at Kindergarten. She even made her own Indian Costume!

Carving Pumpkins is Serious Business

What ever happened to the Good-Old Eyes, Noes & Mouth when carving pumpkins. I love the stensils but wow...TIME CONSUMING!

YUCKY!

Thanks to Grandpa Korry, we were able to pick about five 5 Gallon buckets of apples. We're not quite sure what we're going to do with them, but it sure was a lot of fun!!!

...and THIS is what happens when Dad is "babysitting"

Jordan and I decided that if we were going to have to pay $5.00 for a pumpkin this year, we wern't gong to do it at Wal-Mart! We found this little pumpkin patch west of Idaho Falls. Mataya loved their Straw Maze for kids and jumping from the Huge Round Bale. As far as picking the pumpkin, she went right to the one she wanted and was ready to go. It was a lot of fun!
