Swiss Days Finds

Crafts, Shopping, Traditions, , , , , , , ,

Labor Day Weekend is one of my favorite weekends of the year!  Not because we have some great family traditions that we do, but because I have a personal tradition that I do! I go to Swiss Days in Midway, Utah every year.  I have been going for years and I look forward to it every fall!  We go up Provo canyon to get there and it is always such a beautiful drive because the leaves have started turning their bright and beautiful colors. There is usually a little bit of coolness in the air and it is perfect for shopping at all the different boutique booths! Continue reading →

A Little R & R

Fall, Family, , , , ,

This last weekend we went to the cabin. It overlooks Rockport Reservoir and this is the view from one of the front windows.  It was a little cloudy and all the leaves have fallen off the trees, and I was thinking that it was kind of drab, but when I looked at the pictures I thought that it was really beautiful and it is so relaxing to just sit and look out the windows at all of the beauty below us!  There were actually quite a few boats out on the water this weekend, my husband says that fishing is usually pretty good this time of year.  I thought that the fishermen were pretty crazy, but I can think of a lot of things that I do that are pretty crazy too! :)

Another view.My oldest son and his family came up and joined us this weekend, so we had fun working on puzzles…wrestling…romping…
and playing with toys!But the next morning when we woke up…This was the view out the front window!  How beautiful is that? If I did not have to worry about everyone driving down the mountain, I could just stay there all day and sit in front of the fireplace, but we had to leave early before the big snow storm came in.

I don’t know what it is about being out in nature that is just so relaxing…but it is!  Ahh…

Swiss Days

Misc., ,

This week end I went to Swiss Days in Midway.  For a girl who is usually in a hurry and does not like to wait in line, this is a crazy place to be.  But I always love it and love to look at the different vendors and the booths they create!  My hubby took me up and dropped me off at the curb.  What a sweetheart!

After all the fun we went to lunch at Don Pedro’s in Heber.  They have the BEST bean dip!

This is one of my purchases at Swiss days.  I love to do puzzles and hope that it will help with my alzhiemers prevention :) This is my most favorite purchase of the day however!  A Hammock for at the cabin!  It is so relaxing and I love it!

 This poor little doe looks pretty shabby this time of year, with both coats showing.  She kept coming to see us while we there.  We think that she has twin fawns, but we did not see the fawns this time.

 Ahh! The good life!
