This month has started out all our Fall Festivities and we are loving the weather and all the activities we've been able to do. First off we headed to Dinosaur Park on October 16th to try out there Night of the Living Dinosaurs Trick or Treat fun, and we had a blast. Grandma and Grandpa Christiansen went with us. It was decorated so fun.
They had a costume contest and our "Little Pirate" took 3rd place. She was thrilled.
On October 18th we headed out to Black Island Farms. Axiom financial gives us free tickets every year and we look forward to it always. They have a petting farm, swings, slides, kiddy-train, corn sandbox, mazes, refreshments, and a hay-ride to pick out pumpkins.
On Thursday, October 21, we went with Amy and Bentley to the Treehouse to play and up to Beuss Pond to feed the ducks. It was gorgeous up there.
On October 22nd we headed up to east canyon with Grandma and Grandpa Christiansen for Emilee's first fishing trip. It was beautiful and we got to catch a ton of fish. Emilee enjoyed the worms the best! On the way home we stopped at the very yummy Taggart's in Morgan Canyon. Soooooo GOOOOOOOOOOD!
On Saturday we went with some of our friends: The Platt's, The Stanger's, and The Meirhoffers to the Treehouse's Enchanted Woods Trick or Treat, and then back to our house for pizza and games. The kids got to dress up and follow around their favorite storybook characters on the quest for the golden rose. They meet Humpty Dumpty, The Three Little Pigs, Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, A Pirate, Dorothy and the Scarecrow, and a few more I'm sure I'm forgetting. It was really cute and they got a healthy treat at each station.
Then yesterday Emilee and I decided it was time to make some Halloween Sugar cookies. She poured in and mixed all the ingredients, and made all the colors: Sunset Orange, Watermelon Red, Teal, and Jungle Green. They were just as fun to make as they were to eat. We took some over to both her grandparents. 
I know Halloween is this Saturday, so I'm sure I'll have more pictures coming but this month had already been a lot of fun and I had a post overload. I think I'm getting stir crazy waiting for this baby to come and trying to get out as much as possible before I'm cooped up during the winter months.

What an awesome month! You guys look like you had so much fun. What a cute little pirate Emi makes! We need to get together soon.
Alyssa, What a fun month! I love October. I feel like there is so much going on and unlike the Winter months it is still warm enough to head outside. Emilee's costume is absolutely adorable, and you look GREAT in all of your pictures-you're getting so close to having her/him??? :)
