We have had very little snow this year, but you can bet that the kids were out in the little that we've had!! I don't mind not having to drive in the snow, but I know the kids would love some more of the white stuff!

Halloween
Halloween was a lot of fun this year. I took the kids up to Travis's work to trick-or-treat through the cubicles and have lunch. Tyler loved being at daddy's work! In the evening, we went to my parents to carve pumpkins and trick-or-treat. They live on a small street and their neighbors are always so generous to cute kids...so there is really no need to go to hundreds of houses!
Trains!
We decided to ride the FrontRunner train to Ogden and go to lunch and to the train museum. It was a lot of fun and Tyler loved the trains!

Grandma Doris's 90th Birthday Party!
Travis's Grandma Doris turned 90 on October 16th!! Her kids and grandkids threw a party for her to celebrate such an amazing milestone. It was fun to have all the kids, grandkids and great-grandkids together in one place!

Lake Tahoe
While we driving home from California, we decided to be a bit spontaneous and head over to Lake Tahoe for one last night before vacation ended. I have been wanting to go to Lake Tahoe for awhile, but have just never made it. I am SOOO glad we did! It was a ton of fun and now I want to go back for longer. We stayed in a little hotel right off the lake with access to a private beach. The weather was perfect for relaxing on the beach and the kids played in the sand and Lillie even went for a swim (such a daredevil!!). We also went to the Emerald Bay overlook....beautiful! After the kids went to bed, Travis and I sat out on our hotel room's porch and watched the lake in the moonlight. It was the perfect end to our trip!

Tulelake
I was so glad that we got to go to Tulelake, California to visit my family in mid-August!! It's always a relaxing time catching up, swimming and this time some yard-saling! We had a great time, but didn't take nearly enough pictures of everyone! :)

Fourth of July
We spent the 4th of July in Driggs, Idaho with our good friends Sara and Daniel Willers and their sweet baby girl Tatjana. We had a great time watching the hot air balloons early in the morning, playing at the park, seeing the airplane show and just hanging out! We also made a day trip through Teton National Park and then to Yellowstone. We are so blessed to have the Willers as friends and look forward to many more years of adventures...even if we are in separate states...or countries! :)
