Cornbelly's 2014

Being a member of Seven Peaks, Pass of all passes, has its perks. The biggest one is the last two days of Cornbelly's they were offering to get in for $5.34 a ticket, can't beat that especially when tickets are normally $11.95.

So the kids and I, the P Family and Jeremy's cousin and her son, we decided to head down to Thanksgiving Point Cornbelly's for some Halloween Afternoon Fun.

Halloween Week

This last week was Halloween week, which was filled with activities almost everyday.

Wednesday was Trunk or Treat. The kids were able to get all dolled up in their costumes. We theN headed to the near elementary school for some soups and trunk or treating .

Thursday was Abi's preschool party. Abi was allowed to dress up, so into the costume we go.

Friday...Halloween! Jack s able to dress up at school, but he had to dress up as a book character so he chose a Dementor from Harry Potter. He w able to wear part of his original costume minus his mask.

After school we headed to Cornbelly's which will have to be its own post.

Once getting back from our adventure we ate dinner (pizza) then got ready for the Halloween Trick or Treating. 

The kids were able to go trick or treating with their second cousin Samuel.

They collected A LOT of candy, had a good time and was able to go visit Grandma and Grandpa South.

A Sisters Lunch

I have been a little lost lately with my BF L moving away to Spokane. So I figured I needed to try and fill that void and by doing so figured it would be fun to start doing a once a month get together with one one of my sister in laws, Brooke. Since they were down a car I headed to Brooke and Logan's house to pick up my sister for our afternoon outing.

Brooke and I headed to "The Gateway" to enjoy some sushi at Happy Sumo.

It was delicious and I LOVED the company. After our fulfilling lunch we decided to walk the what is left of the shops at Gateway. 

My Brothers Birthday

My Sister In Law, Brooke, is quite the party planner. She put together a nice delicious party for my twin brothers. We headed over to Brooke and Logan's house for this fun celebration. She had a Halloween themed party. She served cup cakes with spiders, a delicious clam chowder with pumpkin shaped bread bowls, candy bags for the kids, orange punch with striped straws, a pumpkin pie for their cake and much more.

A Fun Friday

I decided since for October we were having beautiful weather that the kids and I headed to Riley's to pick up some sandwiches then we headed over to the West Jordan park for some playing, eating and enjoying th sun.

After playing at the park we headed down to Gardner Village for their Witch Fest. We looked at all of the fake decorative witches, tried on witch hats, shared a donut and sugar cookie and enjoyed the wonderful October weather.

The kids and I headed to the Witch Playground. I felt it was a little expensive especially for parents that want to go in to keep and eye on their kids, but other than that it was fun.

Just Us

Square Pumpkins

When worked for Mountain America Credit Union I was first introduced to "Square Pumpkins" from Arctic Circle. Since I am no longer working there I figured I would share the tradition with my children. So the kids and I decided to head to our neighborhood's Arctic Circle and get some Squared Pumpkins.

Mrs. Cavanaugh's Chocolates

During UEA beak, our neighborhood put together a group tour of a chocolate factory. So we headed up to North Salt Lake to tour Mrs. Cavanaugh's Chocolates.

We were able to tour some of th factory mainly looking through windows. We got to watch a movie on chocolate and how Mrs. Cavanaugh starter her success as well as try some chocolate. 

2014 Pumpkin Patch

For the last few years we have been taking the kids to The Schmidt's Pumpkin Patch this year was no different.

A Discover Card Wedding

When Jeremy worked for Discover Card, he met this kid who moved out to Salt Lake from California for a girl. After getting out here she dumped him and he was kind of homeless so we let him crash at our house for about a week until he figured things out. Two year later gets an invitation to his wedding and come to find out he met his wife at Discover Card.

Jeremy and I headed up to the Homestead in Midway to help celebrate this occasion.

The ceremony was held onto of the crater at the homestead. The hike was quite a hike, but the views were beautiful.

After the ceremony he headed to the main house for the '50's reception.
