FALLing in <3

Anyone who knows me knows that i love fall.  It's my all time favorite time of the year.  The cooler weather, the changing leaves, the pumpkin flavored EVERYTHING (I <3 pumpkin), all of the festive pumpkin patches/corn mazes/hay rides/ and a major holiday every month with the promise of the first snow/xmas goodness around the corner?? forget about it!

Not to mention the start of football season (Go Cougars!)  and what a fun first few games we had! 2 Hail marys to win the game?? so good :)  I'm really starting to get excited for the future of our football program and it's been awhile since  I felt that way.

Love Campus in the Fall!

 What's that?? (Jake wouldn't go near cosmo)

Saw BYUSportsNation about to film at the bookstore

 Geared up for the game!

 ready to watch the first game of the season!

 our snacks

With the coming of cooler weather we're excited to up our hiking with the kids.  We have a few local hikes that we enjoy doing but we figured we'd try out the Cecret ("secret") lake hike up north with Uncle Eric & O.

Waiting for the shuttle to the trailhead

 It felt like we were hiking in Rohan ;) (nerd alert)

 Taking a rest

 O was fearless and didn't want to stop for a rest even tho i'm sure Uncle Eric did ;)

 throwing rocks in the lake

 Later in Sep my Brother Mike & his family came to Utah for a funeral so we got to spend some time at the Museum of Curiosity and our house
