Millcreek Canyon & Floating Boats

Jack and Granddad & Nana were collecting fallen leaves to throw into the water, and they would call them boats. The other day Jack said to me "Mommy, the leaves fell down, and now they are boats". I thought it was pretty cute.

A couple of weeks ago we went up Millcreek Canyon with some of our family. It was beautiful and so great to be out enjoying the gorgeous fall leaves.

We had a fun time, even if Jack's face suggests otherwise.

Here you go Papa

Jack is starting to brush his teeth and actually like it!:) He has always chewed on the toothbrush, and has wiggled his head back and forth when I tried to brush them, but now we have a good thing going. We bought some little kid toothpaste which always helps, and I brush his teeth first and then he takes over. He brushes and brushes, and then drinks the water out of the bowl, I think that is his favorite part.

Don't you think this one should make it to the office Papa?

Drinking the water!

I love my Jack Jack

Jack and I have so much fun together. We spend most of our time together and for the most part it is all good! He is a great boy and I just love him so much.

Wheeler Farm

Last Friday we went out to Wheeler Farm. It was a lot of fun and Jack had fun driving the tractors and looking at the animals. It was a beautiful evening and a great place to take fun pictures. Here are a few that we took.

Correction

So that cute pumpkin decorating tip is not from Better Homes and Gardens, but from Good Housekeeping! Thanks for the clarification Rach. And here is a picture to show you how cute the pumpkins are.

Fall is Coming

As I have expressed to many of my friends, I don't really blog, I just post pictures of Jack and put a few words down to explain the photos. Here is my attempt to make a true blog post!:)
I love this time of year, when the evening and mornings are cool, and there is beautiful clear sunny days to enjoy. It has been a little bit warm, but that is ok I will keep it. I was reading in Sunday's paper about some of the greatest drives to take during the fall time to see the leaves and I was wanting to get others input on some of there favorite fall activities. I want to take Jack and Rob even out to enjoy this time of year and was just hoping for some help on what to do. Jack and I went out to Gardner Village last year and that was a lot of fun, I think I will do that again this year. They have all of these crazy witches up and it is fun. Anyone who wants to go let me know and we can get a group together.
One of my favorite views of the fall leaves is right in Bountiful where I live and I will post a picture as soon as more of the leaves change.
I was at the dermatologist today and picked up a Better Homes and Gardens magazine and they had some very cute and simple, which I like, decoring tips for Halloween. The cutest one I saw was they took smaller little pumpkins and used double sided tape and stuck cute black and other colored ribbons around the pumkins. Very simple, cheap, and very cute. I tried to find the link to show you the picture, but I couldn't. Sorry.
Thanks for reading and letting me share and I would love to hear from all of you out there!

Like Father Like Son

Jack and Rob both using the "puter". Jack is watching the DVD Cars and Rob is working. You gotta love those father son bonding moments.
