Annual Fall Traditions

IRON COUNTY FAIR
Our Little Oreo Stacking Champ.  I think he came in second overall (even beating Michael and Adelyn.  Loved watching him!
Iron County Fair means Family for us.  Mark and Mandy spoiled us by coming and doing all the usual stuff, including the Rodeo, 5k race and the Parade.  We all went crazy with treats and enjoyed late nights (in this case, playing Atari).  Ruth and Tyler joined the festivities with some fair food, carnival rides and parade.  They even bought some yummy goat cheese.
I got to be in the parade this year on the city's float entitled, "Double the Tradition."
Joey was too scared to climb to the top.
BYU FOOTBALL
The kids all got their faces painted at the pre-game.
Yes, the kids were all sick, the game didn't start until 8:15 at night and we have 5 kids under the age of 7 who are all up past their bed time.

We made it to half time.  Pat on the back.  The kids have fond memories I do believe.
Bundling up for the coldest game thus far in the season.  I guess they had their fevers to warm them up.
FALL DRIVE TO YANKEE MEADOWS
The most beautiful weekend ever!
The traditional picture of "our" rainbow tree.
Yankee Reservoir
There were too many folks at the Yankee to get our traditional fall photo, so we stopped here for a group shot.  This was the first year exploring with the mini van.  It was an adventure I'm not sure if we'll decide to take next year :)
