Halloween Party 2013

This year we also had an impromptu Halloween party...

I think Maia had the most fun making the "witch's brew"...

We played a game where the kids had to search for Gummy Bears in "brain soup" 

Maia was, once again, the only one that truly apprciated this game.

Prize bag time!

and finally it was pumpkin cookie decorating time!

 

I think it's safe to say that they all had a great time!

Thriller 2013

Last year we started a new Halloween tradition...going to see Thriller.  

This zombie nearly brought Maia to tears...

We had tons of fun!

It's Pumpkin Carvin' Time!

Oh the dreaded pumpkin carving day...it never turns out to be as fun as we all anticipate but we still had really good laughs as a result :)

Midway - UEA

We usually never go anywhere for UEA break but this year we gave Maia the option of either having a Lagoon Day or heading to Midway and going to The Crater...She chose Midway so that's where we went!

Here's the outside of the little cottage we stayed in...

 

 Our view was gorgeous too.  Fall beauty at it's finest :)

The first thing we did was head straight to The Crater where we enjoyed a soak in the warm mineral water and had some fun snorkeling...

Then we enjoyed a fabulous dinner at the Homestead Resort restaurant...

Overall, we had a fun time and it's always great to spend some quality family time away from home. Love you guys!

Pumpkin Days @ Wheeler Farm

Today we took a quick trip to Wheeler Farm for Pumpkin Days.  We did a small hay bale maze, wagon ride, picked pumpkins and enjoyed some deliciousness at the Farmer's Market.

Hay Bale Maze

It's officially Halloween-time! Our favorite Season!  Friday evening was our first official Halloween event of the year.  We went to the hay bale maze in Kaysville.  Throughout the maze we had to collect hole punches on a small card which made it even more fun! Definitely re-visiting this one!

 Made it to the top!

Having fun getting lost in the maze...

Then, bike carts?

and finally we laughed and laughed...#Coneheads
