Monkey Bars

This happens to be out of order but I had to post anyway...

 We stayed in Logan on Saturday after my parents 50th birthday party. This is a picture from my cell phone in Sardine Canyon...no I did not enhance or color edit the photo the leaves truly were this gorgeous!

We stayed Saturday so the gals could attend the General Relief Society Conference, while the boys all attended the USU Homecoming game. We had sometime to kill before both events so we took the boys down to the elementary school playground. I cannot explain how in shock we were when we watched Ian go from beginning of the monkey bars all the way to the end. I remember having contests in elementary school (yes this exact playground was there while I was in school) to see who could make it the furthest...and my four year old just cruised through it like it was nothing??? We though maybe it was just luck. Then after he swung across them all a few more times we decided we better record it.

Which brought about a little competition. See how far the rest of us could make it.  Clearly given my toothpick arms my chances were not high.

Even Aaron got in on the fun!

After we were all exhausted from swinging on the monkey bars we headed back to my parents house. My mom ended up staying home (she did not feel well) and Aaron ended up staying with her (he did not want to leave grandma's sight. My dad and his dad at the game.

We headed back home late that night after a great weekend!

The next day we enjoyed coloring outside in the shade..

And inside when it got too cold. The boys were coloring pictures for a halloween contest. 

Fall cleaning began and quickly came to an end. Aaron enjoyed helping wash the baseboards. I really can't believe how dirty the lower half of ALL of our walls get :( I have only completely the top floor of our house and now need to get the energy to tackle the basement.

The boys have been getting along and playing together very well. Don't worry they still have their moments. They love to take turns pushing each other in the tikes cars. 

They have also been going a little crazy with halloween stamps. It is much more fun to decorate yourself than a paper. Ian's scary face does look quite frightening.

I think next year I may have to pull the halloween decorations out closer to halloween. We still have weeks to go and everyday they ask is it halloween yet?
