life lately :: september

From finishing up our summer in California (packed with last minute adventures) and driving 3 cars back to Utah it was a busy month! To top it off, I went back to work and we've just been trying to settle back in our home. Mostly though, we are loving this fall in Utah. I almost hated it because when we first got back it was freezing (and snowing in the mountains!) but the temperatures have since redeemed themselves settling in the 60s. It's pretty much perfect.

Goodbye September and Hello October!

^ surviving the 100 degree weather in September the only way we know how! ^

^ an afternoon at the Sacramento Children's Museum with Marci and her cute kids! Mckai was obsessed with the train table and no matter how many times I tried to show him all the other cool things that there were to do... he always found his way back to the trains! ^

 ^ a weekend anniversary getaway to Carmel by the Sea... ^

^ our last park day in Sacramento, California! ^

^ Tristan's last day of work was the 15th, but the MOIC didn't open until the 17th... he was the perfect instagram husband and let us postpone our trip back to Utah until after the museum ;) We made a trip of it to San Francisco and it was the best last trip of the summer! ^

^ the second day of our trip to San Francisco consisted of visiting Alcatraz! If you'll remember, we tried to go when Tristan's family was visiting but turns out you have to plan WAY in advance. I'm so glad we were able to fit it in before we headed home. ^

Calling Nana & Papa to come pick him up from our hotel room after a particularly rough day ;)
Almost home!
And home sweet home.

We are so grateful to be back in Utah in our house and close to family. We had an amazing summer but don't mind us while we rest and relax for the next few months after so much traveling with a toddler #exhausting! I made a video of our summer, it can be found here!

^ a Sunday afternoon spent driving the Alpine Loop to find all the pretty fall colors... only to find snow! ^

^ hiking Stewart Falls with Kenzie, Ryan and Millie. The dogs were in heaven and so was I :) ^

^ the first of many afternoons spent at Cornbellys ^
