Cornbelly's - Take 2

Today was a short day for Riley (like every Friday here in Utah) so with the extra time, we decided to use our pass to Cornbelly's at Thanksgiving Point.  What a great way to wear the kids out!  We had beautiful sunshine - to the point where I was hot even in short sleeves!  We pretty much had the place to ourselves, which was wonderful!  K and R had a blast jumping on the big "pillows" together.  They are like big uncovered moonwalks.  We also tried the cow train and the grain train...We stayed out of the BIG corn maze because Momma's afraid of getting lost in the corn fields w/ two kids by herself!  We stick to the kiddie (short version) corn maze.  K loves the straw bale mazes as well as the pumpkin mazes.

Hoping to do more "Utah" exploring this weekend.  Maybe a trip to Syracuse (Ut, not NY) and Antelope Island.  AI is on the Great Salt Lake and supposed to have lots of trails for hiking and biking.  There is a Black Island Farms Harvest Festival in Syracuse that looks fun...similar to Cornbellies.

We love all the fall activities out here.  Now that the sun is shining again, we're enjoying ourselves.  The mornings are still a little on the cold side, but by lunchtime, it's gorgeous!  Nights are chilly - wish we had a fire pit...once we move, that will be one of the first purchases we make!  Nothing like homemade smores and mt. pies in your own backyard!






Noticing a trend here?  This is her newest favorite thing to do...pick up rocks and then carry them around or hand them to you!




Check out the Michael Jordan tongue!




Both kids enjoyed the Rubber Duckie Races!







My favorite kids in the pumpkin maze.
