Red Barn Pumpkin Patch

The other night for FHE we loaded up and headed to Santaquin to the Red Barn.  It was pretty cute- you ride out on a wagon pulled by a tractor.  Evan was in Heaven!!!
Luke about died at the price of Pumpkins these days.  It was hilarious!
 Our little family of 4



Our night was finished off with picking pumpkins in the dark and some Ice Cream!

Breakfast with the Witches

This year my Aunt Jan got a bunch of tickets to go to Breakfast with the Witches at Gardner Village.  The kids loved it!  It was so cute to have the Nice Witches wander around, eat breakfast with us, and put on a show! 
 Nanny with her grandkids.

 The kiddos were getting a kick out of the witches!
 Evan was so brave- he is pretty cautious and he hopped on this Horse like it was no big thing!
His name was Rocky.

Change

For those of you that know me well, know that I H.A.T.E CHANGE.  There I said it! Change is always very hard for me and I just don't like it one bit.  After serving in the Young Women's for 3 1/2 years this Sunday they are going to say my name and release me! I remember when I got the calling and was super nervous to teach, go to meetings, be in charge of Tuesday night activities, etc.  But this is something that I have grown to love.  I love my Young Women...and I am pretty sure they love me to. At least I hope they do.  But how do I stop the clock? How do I tell the Bishop I need this calling still and I am just not done? I don't.  The time I guess has come and a change is headed my way.  YIKES!!! I am one that likes to be in charge, likes to know whats going on, and how its going to get done- and this is out of my control. I will forever cherish the time I spent with the YW and the fond memories and bonds that I have with them.  I think Heavenly Father knew that I needed this calling at this time in my life, it was EXACTLY where I was supposed to be!
