October Has Arrived In Utah!

There are so many halloween type activities out here in the fall.  Cornbellies is one of the kids' favorites.  This was the first weekend it was open and one of the radio stations was offering a HUGE discount on tickets for this weekend only.  Typically tickets are $11 each and we scored them for $4 each!  I also wasn't sure how crowded it was going to be on the weekend, but GC is this weekend so most families must have stayed home to watch their t.v.'s!

Kevin had his nephew this morning so we decided to take all the kids together.  My kids adore Tristam and consider him not just a friend, but more like a cousin. Cornbellies offers an array of activities but their big draw every year is their corn maze...I have to admit, we did get lost.  My advice is to not allow a 2, 6 & 8 year old guide you through!  This year's maze is in honor of 100 years of scouting!  How cool since Riley is in his first year of Cub Scouts?  Here are some pics of the other stuff we did while we were there.

Riley was wondering what he was supposed to do with the rope!

The only maze we didn't get lost in today!

Our three jailbirds!  Kendall just had to be part of the action!

She LOVED these slides and probably could have easily spent 45 minutes there!

Didn't even think twice about climbing this to the top!

Riley had fun playing on the tractor and taking me for a hayride!

Kendall's turn to drive the tractor.  She told all her pretend riders to make sure to sit down!  I about fell on the ground laughing!

Air pillows are always a hit with my kids.  

Check out Riley's expression in this shot!

It's no wonder why we got her a trampoline for her birthday, huh?

Check out how high she gets!  Crazy nut!

Unfortunately our trip ended in tears.  Riley and Tristam were on the fire truck when Riley got stung by a bee.  Thankfully we discovered he's not allergic to them...his first sting ever!  All in all the kids had a blast and I'm glad we got a chance to take them...still not feeling like fall here though...notice the tank top and shorts Kendall is wearing in all the shots!  It felt like near 90 there!  Ugh!  I'm ready for sweaters and jeans, crisp mornings, and cool evenings...maybe next week.
