Happy Halloween!!


We had our annual Halloween party at the Maughans this year. It was so fun to see everyone and their crazy costumes! This year Bray and I were struggling to find a costume so if you can't tell we were pretty desperate. We ended up being a UPS worker and a box. (Yes, lucky me! I got to be the box!) But we must have been more creative than we thought because we tied for 1st place in the costume contest! We also did some pumpkin carving with the Olsen fam. Dax was loving playing with all the pumpkin guts. Hope you all have a Happy Halloween!!

Moab




For Fall Break we made our way down to Moab with the Fam. It was the yearly get away for the Olsen crew. We had a blast checking out all the little shops, going to the gem show, hiking to Delicate Arch and biking good ol' Slick Rock. We want to give a big THANKS to Mommy and Daddy Olsen for a sweet weekend!

Park City


We went to Park City for the weekend and it was freezing!! It was snowing!! It was a lot of fun though just to get away for a weekend. We stayed in this REALLY nice place and we both were laughing at how out of place we felt with all the bell boy services and amenities. It was fun to pretend like we fit in there even if it was just for the weekend! Oh well back to reality!

Camping with the Fam


So we went on our annual camping trip with the fam and it was a lot of fun! We go up Salina Canyon every year with my family and it is like a big Olsen reunion! (Poor Bray gets chased around all weekend by all of the little cousin admirers!) We just chilled, played games, went four-wheeling, and ate way too much junk!! It was good to get away. (Sorry about the picture it was taken during and FOUR hour long jeep ride!) We both look retarted but that is the joy of camping, who cares!! Right?
