Camping, Birthday, Fall Catchup

Hello All! Well it's Fall and I'm in love with the cooler temperatures and jackets and boots that accompany it. The Mr. and I have taken lots of drives up the canyon to breath in the crisper air and clip some leaves. I wish that I had kept up on my blog/journal of our adventures because now it's hard to recall all the fun we've been having. Some things of note we've done: (We don't have a camera so they pics were taken on old phone. Now with new phone I can't get them off and took pics with another poor quality camera! BlurrySorry!)

Fishing: I caught my first little fish! He was little alright-makes me excited for next year!
Babysitting Indy, Libby, Ellie and Milo! 4 perfect kiddos that made us smile with their humor, sweetness and smarts! Glad we got to go to the zoo-we've wanted to go for a bit!
First day of Autumn: Paddle Boarding at Jordanelle. Beautiful day, Balance Needed!

James Bond Day: Mr. Finch requested that I be dressed in a little black number to accomplish our mission. With Gold Painted Nails (Golden Eye Polish thanks to my mom) we headed out to dinner but not before enjoying some pre-dinner mocktails. Shaken not stirred of course! My own James Bond dressed to the nines! Our mission: to finish our meals-we tried!

Real Salt Lake Game: Tied but still fun to go! Not a bad seat at that stadium! Go Real!

Mr Finch's Birthday! He took the day off work (Present for me!) We started the day with a doughnut (his request) then sandwiches at great harvest, Hotel Transylvania (not really recommended:() Watching the Fish Feeding at Cabelas (They feed them Gold Fish!) Dinner at Rodizio Grill. We ate so much we were too stuffed to enjoy a piece of the pie Brandon wanted. We blew out the candles of course though!
Annual Jaynes Family Campout: Another Super fun night! Fall Soups, Salads and Bread. Smores and Scary Story around the fire. Croquette Tournament that ended up with flashlights lighting the way-hey there was a trophy bowl of prizes at stake! 
Camping with Chip in the Finch Backyard: Brandon often comments on how he misses his dog. We decided to camp-out with chip. He was pretty interested in the food we cooked and nearly cooked himself trying to smell by the fire! 
Treats and Eats at a few of the restaurants featured on FoodNetworks Diners, Drive-ins and Dives! Great Shakes, Tacos and more places to visit soon!

I must say that I'm enjoying fall! There's so much that comes with this time of year and the time starts getting faster and faster as we get more holidays and family events. I'm so looking forward to Thanksgiving, Christmas and traditions galore! 

Enjoy this time of year! It goes much too fast!
