Amazing Views At Every Turn

I'm a little bit late posting about Ben's football game..........His team won 40-0 :)
He played most of the game and ran an extra point. He had some of his best kicks yet.


The dr. looked at his cast this week and said it could come off in 3 weeks. Saturday is the last game of the season.

Saturday was Heather's 17th birthday! It's hard to believe I got out of the Air Force that many years ago to be a stay at home mom!!

For her birthday we went to a park for a picnic supper with a group of her friends from church and then they all went to the corn maze and had a wonderful time.

Autumn in Utah is spectacular!!

The colors are different this year because of the unusually wet spring and early summer. The aspen have been slow to turn yellow ( and are still working on it ) but the maple have more than made up for that. They are displaying flaming reds and oranges with tinges of pink reminding me of an incredible water color picture.
Of course the scrub oak is beautiful as always.

Yesterday my parents and I took a 13 hour fall color drive. It was actually a 3 hr. drive but we stopped often to take pictures and soak up the amazing views at every turn. I uploaded pictures to my photostream.
We took the dirt Avon road out of Liberty ( Ogden Valley ) over to Logan Canyon which leads to Bear Lake then came home the way of Monte Cristo which takes you back into Ogden Valley.

Then today God gifted us with snow in the mountains.....is anything more beautiful than snow in the autumn? I'll try to get pictures tomorrow. We got some snow down here but it didn't stick.

Are you enjoying Autumn in your neck of the woods?

Blessings to you and yours :)
