Fruita Fall Festival

Every year the little city of Fruita puts on a Fall Festival. The kids loved it, in the morning they have a big parade and bed races. Brooklyn was dancing to the music and marching when the bands walked by. We went back in the evening to enjoy some  rides and food!

Hiking Dino Hill

I have always wanted to be one of those cool moms who do adventurous things with there kids, so last week was my first attempt taking the two kids hiking with just me. We started with a very small hike so if there were problems we could turn back at any time. I always had to remind myself that it was more about the journey then the destination, as you can see the picture where Brooklyn is laying on the ground.. she thought it was a good place to take a nap. We were however victorious we made it to the top of our little hike, and back down with only having to carry the two kids at the same time for about 50 yards!

October

I seem to get behind so quickly on my blog, so here goes! October was a busy month for us, we found ourselves making lots of tasty treats, having a spooky dinner, hitting up the pumpkin patch with the preschool, cornbellys, an adult Halloween party, the ward party, and of course trick or treating!

Family Photo Shoot

This might be serious picture overload for some of you, but this is just a small fraction of the cutest pictures ever! Photos taken by Kellene Mortenson. 

Biking up on the Mesa

I have fallen in love with biking these past few months.. can you tell? Last week a group of us ladies drove up to the mesa biked up the mesa past the powderhorn ski resort to the top of the Grand Mesa Lakes. The ride was tons of uphill and was 26 miles round trip, this was for sure the toughest ride I have done, but it was beautiful, and all of the leaves were changing to their fall colors, just perfect. Afterwards we had lunch at a little cafe place, and headed home. I was in heaven for the whole day!
