FAMILY TIME

IN ALL OF LIVING HAVE MUCH FUN AND LAUGHTER. LIFE IS TO BE ENJOYED, NOT JUST ENDURED.

President Gordon B. Hinckley

Since Byron took the day off and the kids were out of school - we planned another fun day away from the house and cleaning :). We went up into Millcreek Canyon for a picnic and to enjoy the beautiful fall colors. I had never been up in that canyon before. We usually go up Provo Canyon or American Fork Canyon so it was fun to have a change. The colors were BEAUTIFUL!!! We had such a great time walking around and enjoying a family picnic. I absolutely love this time of year. I love walking with leaves crunching below my feet and not being able to see the sidewalk because it is covered with leaves. The colors were also gorgeous. We took a short hike and loved how refreshing and fun it is to be in the outdoors. I am sad that this time of year will be short due to the inevitable cold weather that will roll in soon. For now, though, we enjoyed it and took plenty of pictures to remember this great day.

Our picnic - we enjoyed subs, chips and pretzels. The yellow jackets came and made a relaxing lunch turn into a hurried lunch.

Enjoying a leisure stroll!

After leaving the canyon, we headed to Hogle Zoo. We enjoyed the 70 degree weather and had these yummy ice-cream cones to show for it. I originally got a churro for Bradley, but after he saw my ice-cream cone he didn't want anything to do with it. He was so messy, but such a happy kid. There were so many people at the zoo, but we still were able to enjoy ourselves. We enjoyed an elephant show and were able to see so many fun animals. The baby meerkats were a hit.

We had such a fun day together. I just love those days where we can run away from everything and enjoy time together.
