The Pumpkin Walk and pumpkin carving



We started out our Halloween Festivities by going to the pumpkin walk at the mill. We had a good time, Diessen had went earlier in the day with a friend and all he kept talking about was how he wanted to ride the bull. I was thinking that maybe it was a mechanical bull and we didn't have any cash to pay for him to ride it. I started to worry that he would make a scene because we didn't have money. Well when we got there he found his bull and he was very excited and it was FREE! It was fun to see all the fun pumpkins from around our community. The next day we carved pumpkins. It was really fun to carve pumpkins from our garden. We had a aThomas the tank engine, a U of U pumpkin, an owl, and a scooby doo.

Utah State Fair





Thanks to my wonderful sister who sent me her SD card reader I can upload come pictures. we have made it a tradition in our family to go to the Utah State Fair every year. It has also become a tradition for Thiess to take Diessen down the big yellow slide. I love the fair, I really would like to know how you become a food tester there. The kids really enjoyed visiting all the animals. Who knew that sheep smelled so BAD!!
FFA has a great exhibit that is for kids that the kids loved. We had a lot of fun.

Sorry I haven;t updated the blog lately. I tried to a week or so ago but the cord to camera no longer works therefore I cannot download any pictures. So until I buy an SD card reader there won't be any blogging. :(
