Hobble Creek for a Little R&R...

First thing the Girls run to...The River!

Kenzie in her cute new blue winter jacket.

Ashlynn in her cute new PINK winter jacket. Everything she wants has to be Pink, she is a girlie-girl!

My Handsome Hubby. What a Sweet-heart he is! I am truly blessed!

Here is that Handsome man again! He made a great fire. Thanks for keeping us warm!

The Girls with a BIG pile of leaves!

Kenz and Ember looking cute.

I love this of Kenzie. Pretty, Pretty little Girl.

The Girls loved throwing the leaves. I happened to like this picture of Ember.
Very Fall!

Ashlynn still wasn't sure if she liked getting into the leaves!

What a cute bunch of girls! I am truly blessed to have them in my life as well as their wonderful Dad!

Fun in the leaves!

Ember decided that they all needed to be buried in the leaves, as though jumping and throwing them weren't enough.

Ashlynn having the time of her life!

Kenzie wasn't too sure about this until I told her to "Smile".

Ember was in Heaven!

Here I am getting into the spirit of things.
I hate pictures though.

Marshmallows Galore!

Roasting Marshmallows. Kenzie was able to do her own and she did such a great job. She is growing up too fast!

More Marshmallows!

Ember couldn't stop eating them! I thought she would turn into a Marshmallow!

Donovan cooking our stew for dinner.

Our Yummy stew!

Have no clue why I threw this in here. Maybe because Donovan doesn't think we have enough pictures of Mommy.

I love this picture of Ashlynn and Her Daddy! They are so cute together.
With me working they really started bonding. It's about time!

The Little Ones huddled up with Their Daddy! How Cute!

Donovan was sweet and so thoughtful. As you all know I haven't been feeling the best as of late. So earlier in the day I had gone out to my work (yes, I started working again, part time) and had to let them know that I was quitting. This was the hardest thing I have done in a long time. I starting working only 2 weeks prior to this. I worked a week and then the next morning after one of my shifts I broke out in a terrible rash. Well, I was out of work on sick time for a week. I didn't think that it was fair to my Supervisor or anyone else that I worked with that they would be short handed. So...I quit. I was bummed so Donovan suggested having a little R&R up in the mountains. We went and picked up some dinner to make (stew, bread and marshmallows). Then the Allphin's headed up the canyon. It was such a great night. I really needed this trip. The girls had a blast playing in the leaves, roasting marshmallows and making smores and sipping hot chocolate. Me, I enjoyed watching them and taking as many pictures I could of the fall colors. This is my favorite time of year and I am truly grateful for the experience I was able to share with my family. We all had a great time and I am hoping here in the next couple weeks we will be able to make it back before all the leaves are gone. Thank you so much Donovan, you truly are a wonderful man. I am so blessed and loved! I love you.
