Fall Festivities

October was filled with so many fun and exciting things that we were hoping it would stick around for awhile. Unfortunately it went by in a blur.

First off: Congratulations to my brother Josh and his new wife Kelsey! They had a beautiful fall wedding and we are so happy for them.





























Also in October we did a couple things to get into the Halloween spirit. We went to Cornbelly's Corn Maze and had a blast.








































































We even went to a Tooele Pumpkin Patch...






























We also spent a lot of time at Gardener Village. At the beginning of the season, Adalyn got really scared of witches. She was literally terrified... she had bad dreams about them, talked about them non-stop, and couldn't go anywhere near them. So how did we combat this fear? Surrounded her with witches! Sounds mean I know... but it actually worked. We did a baby step process... Show her the witch, let her see us touch the witch, explain that it's fake and nice, get her touch the witch. Finally when she was starting to get more comfortable with them, Devin turned it into a game for her to find the witch and then touch them. After that she asked all the time to go see the witches.































Addie also loved playing in the leaves...
