Josh and I have wanted to do a weekend in Logan for the last few years. We decided that this was the year. Little did we know that it was also USU's homecoming (we definitely should have known this). I think we got the last hotel room in the whole town. The main reason that we have wanted to go was to take our kids to the North Logan Pumpkin Walk. This was always a highlight to me when I attended USU as well as when Josh and I were first married and then later when we had young kids. It is such a good memory for me. The last time we were here Hunter was only a baby.
We got to the Pumpkin Walk at the absolute worst time ever. 7:30 on a Friday night...very bad. The lines was huge! Luckily they have these cute little scenes you can take pictures of the kids in.
This is a new one that I have never seen before and so clever. There are glasses on it's face! Brilliant! How is it that so many brilliant people live it Logan, because this is definitely a great event. We have gone to other pumpkin walks and they don't even hold a candle to this one.
Hunter was way too short to do this one so Palmer lifted him up as high as he could. He had to hold on while he did it. I asked him if he could move his hands and he looked at me like I was crazy!
My favorite part of this little scene is the pumpkin/carrots they are toward the front. They totally look like carrots. I think i was a little more excited about this than the kids were. I just thought everything was so creative and fun.
McKay finally fell asleep. Lately he has a hard time falling asleep anywhere except his bed.
This Polar Express scene was my favorite. You can't see it as well, but the faces were AMAZING!
The Christmas tree was made of corn stalks and the presents were pumpkins.
These penguins were made of zucchinis.
A great time was had by all. I wish we could do this every year.
One of our favorite things about this trip to Logan was this. An "A" on the mountain. My older brother was the Student Body President of Utah State back in the day and he fought so hard to get an A on the mountain to no avail. I am not sure if this is permanent or temporary for Homecoming week, but it was so fun to see it.
After the pumpkin walk we went and got pizza and watched movies in our hotel room.
Can I just say how fun Josh is. He is such a great husband and is usually up for anything. He loves having adventures as much as I do. He even watches the Disney channel without complaining (but not without a few eye rolls :) and rocked McKay to sleep without being asked.
