So Much Fun In October!

A couple of weekends ago, Julia took us on the adventure hike I had been wanting to go on for a long  time! This was the hot springs hike up the Spanish Fork Canyon - 5th Water Hike!
The view was beautiful and the weather was perfect since we were in the middle of October!
Waterfalls and the changing leaves, and being with people that we love...

We even discovered a fun little campsite by the river clos to where the hot springs were!
Kambriella on the rope swing.

The hot pools were amazing!!! The water got progressively hotter as you went further up the mountain...
It was a 5 mile round trip hike, and we spent a good amount of time relaxing in the warm water.
The waterfalls themselves were freezing, but a great way to cool down if you got too hot!

I heard people say while we were there that the water temperature varied between 90 and 120 degrees!
I'm so glad that Dallin and Julia wanted to take us with them on this hike!
It was a blast!



After spending ALL morning on the hike, we got home just in time to prepare for our ward Trunk or Treat!
We whipped together a competition pot of chili and one amazing trailer full of skeletons passing out doughnuts, along with some cool lights and fun Halloween tunes!
Carew, Kara, and Rodney were the Incredibles!
Kambriella and Kesslyn were a wizard and a cheerleader.
Clint was my date and I was a witch!
(Anything to not have to do my hair! ;)


My friend Laura was Patrick Star
I love her so much!
We didn't even know that Kesslyn's friend Kate was going to be a cheerleader too! :)
Clint and I also attended the musical play Little Women with our friend Rhett Butler as the star!
Sweet Kesslyn also gave a beautiful talk in primary about loving to learn the gospel and growing from Come Follow Me and messages from conference.
Clint and I went to the temple again this week! YAY!!!
And I even squished in ONE MORE hike at Mueller Park!
I went with my sister for an jour, and we both decided that we would take what we can get!
I'm not sure how much longer this beautiful weather will hang around, but I figured we will just enjoy it as long as we can!
I LOVE October!!!
