Well I got back from Las Vegas yesterday evening. It was an interesting trip. I spent most of the time with my mom, sister, and cousin. I would say the trip was about a 75% success. The reason I say this is is because I had a lot of fun with family, yet I realized how much I dislike the Strip in Las Vegas.
Reasons I really enjoyed my trip: I loved the shopping. I enjoyed the few sites there was too see. I loved spending time with my family and all my cousins that live there. We all enjoyed a restaurants called the Claim Jumper. My mom, sister, cousin and I had lunch at Mesa Grill which is one of Bobby Flays restaurants; that was an awesome experience. Finally hanging out with Jessie and Eddie my cousins the last night.
Reasons I very disliked my trip: The Vegas strip itself and everything it stands for (didn't realize this until this weekend). The terrible smell of smoke in the air, everywhere. How expensive everything is. Finally the feeling I left with.
I will share the pictures I took of the good memories.

Key Rack
Since we moved to our apartment we have been loosing our keys. Matt and I just place them wherever and end up loosing them for days/weeks at a time. Yesterday I finally found one set of keys that we had lost. I decided it was time to fix this problem. So I made a key rack. I love it and am so happy to have a designated place for our keys!
Of course I love taking pictures so I took some to show the process of me making the key rack.

Cohen the artist...
Last week Cohen climbed out of his crib one morning and didn't wake up Matt or I. Instead he found a marker and decided to draw on both bedroom doors and closest door. He was so proud of his work. Lucky for me it was a washable marker and was easy to clean.

Octobers festivities...
This was probably one of the funnest Octobers I have had in my entire life. Sharing it with Cohen and Matt was the best part. We did lots of stuff, so I will tell you in a caption after each picture.
We went to the pumpkin patch in South Jordan. This is the first pumpkin Matt picked out. This ended up being mine.
Cohen wanted so bad to push the wheelbarrow, all the little kid ones were being used.
He did it for a sec. with the big one.
He loved trying to help put the pumpkins in the wheelbarrow.
I picked out Cohen's pumpkin because he was happy just walking around the pumpkins. It was fun though.
Our pumpkins!
This pumpkin patch is awesome, if you have never been there. It has tractors to play on and a corn maze, also cute settings for pictures.This is the one tractor Matt played on!
Into the corn maze he went.
He loves doing everything with his dad.
Two very handsome boys!
We spent some time in the maze together as well, I needed to take some time away from my camera.
Cohen...He had fun even though he will never smile for a picture.
Matt made me do it.....Cohen was laughing....at first.
Good times.
There is my happy boy..
I love the lighting in thus pic. Cohen loved playing in this tractor.
There he is...
Matt, Cohen, and I at the Witch Festival in Gardner Village. We spent the evening with Rob and Maria. It was fun.
I felt cool sitting by that witch, Cohen not so much.
Collin as Captain America, Cohen as the tiger, my mom as my mom and Broc as Bumble Bee the transformer.This was the Saturday before Halloween at my mom's house for her Halloween party for the boys.
Halloween Day I picked Cohen up from preschool and brought him home to a pumpkin shaped pizza for lunch.
Cohen enjoying lunch and the snacks he got from school.
Halloween evening, on our way to Charlene's house for trick-or-treating.
Me in my high school cheer uniform, Cohen, Sterling as a car racer, Cameron as Steve Ercle, and Tavia as a rocker cat.
Lorne as Nepolian Dinomite, if you couldn't guess.
Trying to get one good picture together, this is the best we could do.
Hannah and Tavia out trick-or-treating.
Cohen just went to his first house and pick out his first piece of candy...a tootsie pop.
His costume was so cute. Oh and this house handed out glow in the dark bracelets.
Eating his candy already. He couldn't even wait 5 min after he got it.
Mine is on the left, Matt's in the middle, and the one Matt carved for Cohen on the right.This is sad but we carved these a week before Halloween but never got to leave them outside our door because we weren't home for Halloween so I put candles in them the day after.
Close up of mine.
One fall day. It was nice outside. Cohen wearing his new hat.
He is such a fun little boy. He loved playing in the leaves, he would randomly go lay down in the grass and start kicking the leaves around.
