October 2013

October was a traveling month for us. Brad presented research at the MESA conference in New Orleans- highlights of course were jambalaya on Bourbon Street. I had fall break and Erica and I headed down for some sunshine and hiking in Zions. Lucky for us the government shut down ended just a few days before we got there. We had planned to hike the narrows but once again- too cold. It was beautiful to see Zions in the fall. Mountain biking and finding more petroglyphs were another highlight, and of course basking in the sun at Sand Hollow. Then of course the season of Halloween was celebrated with Girls day out at Witchesfest (we missed Angie but Dixie loved the witches, just not her witch hat.) This was a fun movie month with scary Hitchock movies and watching the black and white silent Dracula with Angie. And the Hebdon Halloween Party was another Halloween success. We all dressed up as Minions. My co-workers and I also dressed up as Minions and led the Halloween parade. The kids loved it!
