Halloween

The boys were Harry Potter-ish wizards. Here they are casting the "Expelliarmas" curse.

Katrina went with her friends to her first Jr. High Halloween dance. Look at these pretty princesses.

Jim and I were costume idea stealers! Thanks Allison, we were a big hit at our neighborhood party, especially because In-N-Out opened here 2 weeks ago.

Jim and I chilled on the porch with hot chocolate and our fire bowl. We had so much fun while the kids ran around trick-or-treating in the rain.

Happy Halloween!

Wind Cave

We took the kids up Logan Canyon last week and hiked to Wind Cave. Here is a brief description of the hike: "Millennia of wind and water erosion have created a delicate triple arch and natural cave in the limestone outcropping at the end of this 1.9-mile trail. Also known as Witch’s Castle, the location of this interesting formation provides a clear view of the China Wall, a limestone rock formation, as it winds through most of the canyon’s midsection. This is a steep trail". I should have paid a little more attention to the last sentence in this description when I read it. Had I known before we started how steep and treacherous this hike is from the bottom of the canyon to the top, I would never have suggested it!
It was beautiful though. The fall colors were amazing and the cooler fall weather was perfect for this hike. Jim and the kids loved it, I however, have sworn never to hike up there again. My knees and hips are still in agony 9 days later!!
