Halloween and such

The weekend before Halloween we went down to Elk Ridge, (south of Provo) for an Eddy Halloween Dinner at my grandparents home. My grandma made an awesome spaghetti bake that I really need to get the recipe for. It's always nice to get together with Aunts, Uncles and cousins. It feels like just yesterday we were all kids playing in the mud. In reality though, we're having kids of our own, too young to play in the mud but soon enough they'll be there.

Last thursday I picked up my two youngest siblings, Will and Caroline, in Malad because I was babysitting them for the holiday weekend. One of the things I'd been meaning to do was go to the Logan City Cemetary to take pictures of ancestors' graves. So I took James, Will and Caroline with me, and we found 3 of the 4 I was looking for. If you ever need to find someone in the Logan City cemetary, Good Luck! The map doesn't make any sense at all, and you might be wandering around a graveyard for over an hour like we did.

Friday, we went to the American West Heritage Center, while we waited for Matt to get out of class. It was a cold day, but we had fun. We got lost in the maze long enough for James to fall asleep. Speaking of which I have no idea how he did, the trail was so bumpy and muddy, I felt like I needed a Jeep to navigate our way through. Will and Caroline ran ahead most of the time trying to find their own way out, and thank goodness they did, or else I dont know when we would have got out of there.

Outside of the maze a mother duck and her chicks were eating cobbs of corn and we fed them for a bit. The mother tried to bite my knee, aparently it looked delicious, so I stood back after that. I have trust issues with animals that bite me, more on that later.

James was pretty excited to see the fuzzy ducklings, he loves animals!

Will and Caroline sliding down the hill, James and I went down as well, but the pictures didn't turn out :-(

All Bundled Up!

James and I with the massive horses. This one was a mule, but it was the size of a clydesdale! James squeeled with joy when the big guy let us pet him. I'm sure he thought it was a huge dog. Caroline on the other hand was a little freaked out by the size of them.

Halloween we spent in Idaho Falls. Not much to report. James did look super cute though! I should have taken more pictures.
