My kids were out of school on Friday and Monday. Not sure the exact reason why, but I am calling it Fall Break. It was great. On Thursday night we decorated the house for Halloween, watched a movie, and ate pizza. That is what constitutes a "party" at our house, unless you are Clara who got all dressed up to go to a party and was bitterly disappointed when all we did was eat dinner in front of a movie. Anyway, no one else minded. On Friday there was a school ice skating activity and after we drove down to Provo for some park time and dinner with cousins. My sister and her family are up from AZ for their own Fall Break. Lucy stayed at Madi's for a sleepover and we brought Max home with us. The next day we met up at Cornbelly's, another Thanksgiving Point activity. I was surprised by how fun it is. It reminded me of Vala's pumpkin patch in Omaha, one of the things we miss from our midwest days. We had a great time, and ended the evening with delicious carbonara courtesy of Millie and Mom. Sunday we met up again for Sunday dinner and cousin time. Yesterday, with cold weather, I was forced to go buy some winter clothes. Now it is back to the daily grind. I sure love long weekends!
The 2 year old crowd grazed for a long time on Uncle
Stephens delicious grapes. They are so cute I could graze
on them!
I thought this maze was really hard and
would probably have spent the whole weekend
if Emily wasn't getting texted directions.
When we got out Rob told me it only took
them 10 minutes. Sheesh.
They had a princess section at Cornbelly's and
Clara was in heaven. She danced and danced and
danced.

What a great weekend. I think that is so funny about Clara. I would be alright with that party, but I could see how she might think differently. BTW Anna look cute in your sweater:)
What cute pictures! I am a huge fan of cousins pics. It looks like you had a great time! Now, can you come over and decorate my house for Halloween?
Looks like so much fun! Maybe we'll need to check it out...and can anyone explain how the weather dropped 40 degrees this week!?
Good times. We missed you last night. I still want to go to one of your canyons. Maybe Saturday?
D.
What a fun weekend! Great pix!
I love that Clara is such a girlie girl. She's so cute. And I'm also jealous that you guys are getting cold weather. I'm so ready for sweater weather.
a few things:
1. sophie has that same green shirt that clara is wearing. love me some target.
2. i laughed really hard at you getting lost in the corn maze. i truly suck at those things.
3. what a fun break! our (tom's) fall break is next week and i'm way excited.
So fun! Great cousins pics--it's making me sad to not be nearer the cousins. Enjoy it while you have it, just in case...
p.s. That's a good looking bunch of Taylor women.
What a fantastic weekend! I am still procrastinating bringing out my halloween decor. Cornbellys looks like a lot of fun! We'll have to try that.
Isn't Cornbelly's great?! We got lost in the maze and I swear we went each way we could and finally gave up and went out the entrance! still good times though... great pictures. Cousins are the best!
It was so fun to see you! Cant wait till Christmas!
Did your kids venture into The Creature? I hope it is there this year because my kids are looking forward to it.
