Snow days!

Scott and I had a great time playing in the snow. The first night it fell we were with our friends Megan and Josh and we immediately headed outside to take it all in. A few weeks later we weren't so excited that the snow was still sticking around.

Halloween

Scott and I dressed up for Halloween as Mario and Princess Peach! :) We had a great time celebrating this holiday with friends!

October Adventures

Scott and I did so many fun things in October!

We took a day trip to Leavenworth with some friends to check out Oktober Fest! The town is beautiful in the fall. We had such a great time with our wonderful friends, Megan and Josh.
I really want to go to a pumpkin patch (Scott had never been to one), so we talked our friends Sarah and Nick into going with and we had a great time! We spent forever searching for the perfect pumpkins...Sarah and I set them down for a moment to take this cheesy photo and someone took mine from under Scott's feet! It was a traumatic pumpkin patch experience. :)

Our perfect pumpkins....before mine was stolen. :)

Whistler Long Weekend

I had a Tuesday off from school in November for Veteran's Day, so I took the Monday off and Scott and I took a long weekend in Whistler. Whistler was hosting Cornucopia: A Food and Wine Festival that weekend. When we arrived at our hotel on Friday night at 1am, we found that our hotel was hosting a black tie event. We looked VERY out of place in our jeans and t-shirts and got plenty of odd looks...a memorable way to start our adventure.
As it turns out, November is not a good month to go to Whistler...there is nothing to do. The lifts are closed, the gondola is closed...the summer activities are over and the winter activities haven't begun yet. So it was a forced relaxing weekend. We walked around the town, checked out the cute little stores, and relaxed, a lot!

On our drive home we stopped at the most amazing waterfall, Shannon Falls.
