We liked the Scarecrow Family Reunion best ~ doesn't Ray fit right in? |
Ray and I went up to the Homestead in Heber for the 2nd Annual Scarecrow Festival. Anyone can enter a scarecrow in the contest, but it was mostly local businesses and different departments from Homestead Resort - a new festival, it has room to grow. But the drive up Provo Canyon was spectacular, the autumn colors are blazing and we enjoyed our Saturday afternoon out last week-end!

Ethan - getting fancy with the dough |
Each year we have our Annual Pumpkin Carving Contest - Sydni and Kourtni, Ethan and Megan, Brittany, Cory, Ashton and Hunter all came on Friday and they were all a great help in getting ready and we played games and had a great time.

Cory - getting a good stretch on that dough |
I was making crockpot soups (Taco Soup and Chicken and Noodles) and Cory and Ethan decided they wanted to try making handmade noodles the Asian way . . . so they got on the internet and watched several "how-to" videos - it looked so easy! Then they took the pasta dough and started kneading, stretching and twisting . . .an hour later they were exhausted and the dough was still not co-operating. We decided my home-made egg noodle recipe wasn't right for the job, so we got out the pasta press and Ethan finished the noodles. The soup tasted great - it must be all the love that was kneaded in!

Kourtni ~ just relaxing! |

Sydni - our Wii Golf Pro! |
Sydni and Kourtni came over Friday for a Wii Slumber Party and they were also great little helpers. Sydni is a good little cook and Kourtni is happy to do whatever task is needed.

The post makes me homesick all over. We LOVE Heber, and the drive and festival sound like autumn perfection. And the anual pumpkin carving is so great. Love seeing all your pictures!
