October in Review!

WE ALL SCREAM FOR ICE-CREAM!!!
Gearing up for the 2010/11 Jazz season. A tough job, but someone's gotta do it!!!
Sleepovers with cousins rock!
The Ward boyz...Gunnar, Isaac and Garrett.
One last slip-n-slide venture...80 degrees. Not too shabby for an October afternoon.
Adyson and Isaac chillin' out with chocolate pudding. How do girls stay so clean, Isaac wonders as he scratches his beard..or is that a chin???
Garrett, our adorable cousin that literally spent 2 hours on the slip-n-slide. That kid was a maniac on the hill! Gotta love him!
Ran a 10K race with my neighbor, Summer. So much fun! It's been at least 5 years since running a race. Felt good to be "in the groove" again. We've been working consistently since June to build our mileage. Now that it's dark and cold, we've retreated indoors. Interval and strength training is now our focus! Summer introduced me to Kempo (a form of martial arts similar to karate) and it's starting to grow on me. We workout to some great DVDs that target all the muscle groups. Jab, upper cut, sword...a whole new vernacular and oh, the moves! Don't pick a fight with me or Summer!
Never a dull moment @ our annual Thriller event ~ Kingsbury Hall. Did I mention it was "thrilling?" Good times with friends from my neighborhood!
Thanksgiving Point in October is simply the best! Couldn't believe how much there was to do at Corn Belly's this year!
Always more fun with friends. They were behind us on the hay ride...yahoo!!!
This ride made Dad's back ache, Isaac jump, Eliza laugh, and mommy...not sure...I think she was too busy snapping pictures.
Who shrunk mommy and Liza?
Purchased our pumpkins here. Isaac picked his own "punkin" as well as a mini for his sis. Always on the look-out for her like a true big brother!
Liza's first bike! Took it while we vacationed in St. George. She maneuvers like nobody's business. Don't get in her way, she's a biker machine!!!
Cruised through Zions Nat'l Park in a rainstorm. Waterfalls like this spilling down the rock were abundant. We kept pulling over to the side of the road to take pictures like everyone else. A very picturesque day in the canyon!!!
The vivid Fall colors made for a spectacular scenic drive!
These two lit up the canyon as much as the fall foilage!
This one makes my heart sing!
We worked hard carving these pumpkins. Of course, our favorite is the white one...a cyclops of sorts. Hard to tell, but he only has one eye. We thought we were very clever :-)
A true golfer is never bothered by a little snow on the ground.
The cutest lady bug this side of the Mississippi!
A fireman or a witch...hmmm...you decide!
