A Trip to Idaho Falls

A sneak peak at our Fall Photo Shoot in the Leaves. I will share a few more when I get them edited and cropped! Thanks everyone for a great week in Idaho Falls ... we missed you Sarah and Makinley!!!!!!!!!




We baked and made gingerbread houses with Grandma Kiesling!

We painted Turkeys, Candy Canes, and even did a few Christmas Projects.


We had a great week in Idaho Falls with Grandpa and Grandma, Chad, Grandma Kiesling, Ashley, Braxton, and Taylor. It was fun to spend time together crafting, eating out, and running around. It sure made my kids 3 weeks of off-track go a little faster. (Thanks to everyone for that!)

Last Weekend's BYU game






Last weekend, we spent some time with Heath's family. They all came to Utah so that we could go to the BYU game. The weather was cold, rainey, and snowy, but we braved it and enjoyed 3 quarters before the snow dumped.

Halloween Tradition's

For as long as I can remember, we have been eating Chili and Scones on Halloween!! I remember going to my cousin's house every year! When my aunt passed away, my mom kept up her tradition and now it a family Halloween thing that we can't go without! When we (probably my aunt too .. I don't remember for sure) make scones we always use the infamous Rhoades Dough. It is easy. Recently, I decided it might me fun to try to make scones from scratch so that I could make them this year for our tradition dinner. So last night, I tried this recipe from a friend. They were yummy and easy!! The recipe worked great for scones and since we had extra dough, I decided to try rolls. I think these are the prettiest rolls I have ever made! Anyways, try out this recipe for great scones, rolls, bread, cinnamon rolls, orange rolls, or even chicken roll ups! (Let me know if you want any of the other recipe variation's .. the dough is the same.) I would love to know what your Halloween Traditions Are???
