Silver Lake

It has always been our family's tradition to go up to Silver Lake the day of General Conference to check out the beautiful fall colors and simply talk to each other while we walk around the lake. Unfortunately, this year it was much too cold and rainy so we settled for our biannual general conference scones at my mom's. Tucker and I then took our kids a few weeks later. The leaves had dropped, but we had such a nice outing with perfect temperatures and just being outside before we are cooped inside for the rest of winter!

It was still beautiful up there, I just love the reflection in the lake:
Roman and Capri were obsessed with having walking sticks. Roman had to touch every rock with his stick, which got a bit dangerous. So, I simply found a reed for him to use instead. Problem being it was broken in a matter of seconds. Here he is saying "broke."

There were some patches of snow along the way and the kids were in heaven. Snow is still pretty new to them! Capri was so happy after eating a bit of snow, she was willing to smile for me:
