Our Fall Break

We have an on going argument in our family on whether it takes money to have fun. Oh we know you don't need money to have fun, but we all take turns believing it. Last January we'd planned to do Disneyland this week for fall break.....yada yada yada.... we are in Utah this week. Anyways Dave (bless his heart) was determined to show us that you can have a good time without spending money. So we took the kids the Logan for the day. (I think he was inspired by how poor we were in college.) We've never takin our kids back to Utah State so at least it was new for them. They loved climbing the stairs at Old Main Hill and running as fast as they could back down. They also climbed on all the fountains and statues. Free Fun! We did stop for Aggie ice cream which I reminded him costs money, but Dave is a huge ice cream fan and it was a good deal. I wasn't going to argue with that.

Carter crashed half way down, it's steeper then it looks.

On the way home we stopped and visited Uncle Greg and Aunt Erin and had some dinner. Then we stopped in Paradise where my cousin lives and ended up going to a farm for a Halloweenie Roast. This cute Family opens up their farm for people to come visit. They take you on a ride pulled by a tractor (drivin by a cute little grandma) to tour tons of Halloween scenes. (8 years in the making) They also had barrel rides for the little kids and a haunted barn for the older ones. The kids loved it! And guess what IT WAS FREE!!! They do it cause they think that's what Grandpa would want. (the grandpa who handed down the farm) That was perfect for Dave's crusade for free fun.
So somehow we managed to have a lot of fun on a little money. Side note- Yes I did buy Utah State t's but they were only 5 bucks!

P.S. I have nothing against Disneyland, fun resorts, boats, ATV's, cruises, or anything else that expensive fun. ha ha
