Halloween Preview

Annual Dental School 
Halloween Parade


So, maybe I have been looking forward to this all week. It is just so fun to dress up a baby :)
 Gwen- spider                    Savannah- BYU cheerleader

She was a little nervous at first with all the costumes


A little blurry, but she was so cute walking up to all the professors/
employees and holding out her bag for treats.
She got a rice krispie treat first and just chomped on it while she walked around.

Brady- mummy       

Yoda is one of Jayson's professors
Maybe just a little creepy for little kids...

More to come from the ward Halloween party 
(where Jayson will dress up for the first time in our 5 year marriage), 
Saturday trick or treating around the neighborhood, etc.
I kind of like it when Halloween falls on a weekend :)

Pumpkin Patch

We finally made the trip to Vala's Famous Pumpkin Patch this year, and it was well worth it. The place is seriously a mini-Disneyland for kids. Savannah was a little young for some of it, but we found plenty of fun things for her (and Jayson) to do.





Jayson's favorite ride. 
Family sized manual four wheeler.
We went around twice.



Picking our own pumpkins

The admission price was a little steep and it said something about a free haystack ride to pick your own pumpkin, so we assumed the pumpkins were free with our ticket. 
So naturally, we picked the largest pumpkin we could find.
Only to find out later that they do charge for pumpkins at a price of 49 cents a pound.  
Well, our great find was a whopping 29 lbs.
We left her at Valas.

Minneapolis


Jayson had a fall break last week so we headed to Minneapolis for a few days. 
It was gorgeous fall weather and just so fun to spend time as a family exploring a new city.
Lake Calhoun


Sculpture Park


Shopping at Mall of America


Nickelodeon Amusement Park inside of Mall of America
(Savannah wouldn't turn to look at the camera so Jayson's excited face is because he was turning around fast to catch her face. 
Also why she looks a little unprepared:)


Metrodome
Minnesota Vikings


Of course the metrodome was closed but Jayson weaseled our way inside to see the field
