Katie's Blog

Her blog is http://toddandkatiemanning.blogspot.com/


I thought this might be an easy way to let people know that my little sister Katie has a blog now. Since a lot of people that know me...know her! If you want to keep up on the newlyweds you can! She just put up her honeymoon, which I covet. Oh it would be so nice to have a fun long vacation with just Bryan again.

Happy Halloween

We are usually at Disneyland the few days before and on Halloween so we haven't done all the fun Halloween stuff since we have been married. And although I missed Disneyland SO much this year, being able to do all the fun stuff made up for it! (and if you know my un-healthy obsession with Disneyland...you know that is saying a lot)

Oh and we lost our camera so our pictures are from our phones. Except thew few trick or treating ones that our friends took for us. Thanks Erica! (they are obviously the ones with more the 1 megapixel in the camera)

Here are some pumpkins we carved.
Bryan did the awesome Mickey Mouse one. Ethan loved it!


Ethan being a little hesitant. "can I really just take the candy?!"

This is buddy Gavin, Gavin had to help Ethan out and show him how its done. It was Gavin's birthday on Halloween, fun huh?!


Getting the hang of it and LOVING it! I seriously about died from happiness that night, it was so fun taking him trick or treating.
And I know Superman doesn't usually wear Penguin rainboots, but this Superman had to. It started POURING like seriously pouring about an hour before trick or treating and it stopped right in time for us to go.
This is Sarah, she kept giving Ethan candy. Like "here take some more" haha And of course Ethan just kept standing there and waiting for it. After we left this house he told Erica that Halloween is awesome. Umm ya I would have to agree.

Gavin and Ethan. I think Bryan was holding his trick or treat bag at this point. It was slowing him down and he wanted to get to the "next door" fast! So he started having us carry the bag for him.

Here already has next year planned. He wants to be Buzz Lightyear. And he told Bryan that Bry is going to be Woody, because they are buds. I was hoping to get to be Bo Peep to go with them but when I asked him what I was going to be he said a Pirate....

Fall Time (Part 2)

Vermont is the most quintessential place for Fall. I absolutely love it!

We went apple picking. There are apple picking orchards all over here. It is SO much fun! If anyone comes to visit us in the fall, we will go apple picking! Ethan on a tractor. He is just too cute, we are always taking pictures of him.


Here is Ethan at the orchard.

We had a lot of fun picking apples!



This is the handy little apple-picking-helper. Helps you get the awesome ones up at the top of the tree.
As you can see we had a fun little photo shoot in the apple orchard


Ethan thought it was so fun to pick his own apples and put them in his own basket!

And of course, we visited the Jospeh Smith Memorial. We love that place and want everyone who visits to feel the spirit there.


That bench is where the house was.


A pretty little river. I still can't get over how picturesque Vermont is. We didn't have to go up to the mountains searching for beautiful things like this. They are just everywhere!

Covered Bridges. That was one thing my mom really wanted to do here, see some covered bridges.

So one day when I was first here I saw a perfect little white church like this one and I about came un-glued. Oh my heck i thought this was the cutest thing. Then I kept seeing them everywhere! There are just too cute!

This is at the top of Stowe Mountain. Stowe is the most perfect little town ever. We were driving around for a little while and then all of a sudden we came into their "downtown". I can't believe we didnt take pictures of it. My mom and I at the same time just ghasphed and were like "are you serious?!" it was so stinkin cute it was almost un-real.

We rode a tram to the top of the mountain and it was the most beautiful view!
We thought this was kind of amusing....look at the elevation. 3625 feet. This is the highest peak in Vermont.....Cedar City is 5834 ft. not even in the mountains. haha. It made me wonder why Vermont is SO much colder then Utah when Utah is way higher.

The view from the bottom of the tram.


Ahh...beautiful, eh? Anyone wanna come visit?
