Cold Canyon

As I promised Enoch, we went to the canyon this morning. The drive up was very pretty. Most of the leaves hadn't changed yet or were dead from the snow and frost, but the ones that had changed were gorgeous; lots of reds and yellows. We parked up at the cabin and got out to walk around a bit. Enoch and Kate were immediately cold. You know, the first real cold of the winter season each year when you forget how cold is really can get. It was cold. There was snow on the ground. Enoch was excited about that; he has been asking about snow for three weeks now.


We picked a few leaves and put them in their Conference bags and then they were ready to go. No lingering, no looking - they were cold. We packed up and headed home.


As we were driving home, Enoch said, "Mom the leaves are so beautiful. Just like Kate. She is so beautiful." Such a sweet boy!

So cute, it was really cold. We were at the BYU game and I was worried I hadn't dressed Carson warm enough. I was just thinking we needed to go up to the canyon and take a drive!

You're right! Enoch is a sweet boy! And Kate is a sweet girl! As I told Valerie on her blog: There's no time quite like fall. It has its own feel--kind of a winding down time. Loved the pictures!

Love the picture of Kate, she has the most unique expressions.

That sounds like something Jimmy would say. :)
I keep meaning to go for a drive up the canyon, but have yet to do it.
Cute bags!

Well remember Tresa when we went up to the Squaw Peak camp ground and had KFC chicken and to see the colors and it was just a little cold everybody said and ready to go. But we made you all eat the KFC out on the picnic table.
