Bisch's RV Challenege- Free Dinner

Sorry, I did't get this up earlier but this week is Bisch's RV Challenge. Throughout the week there are competitors staying in campers without acess to cell phone or showers and every evening they compete in challeneges. Players get elminated throughout the week and the winner gets a new camper. Each evening they have a free barbeque open to the public during the nightly challenege. We went tonight and the dinner was great (hamburgers, philly cheesesteak, steak bites) and the challenege was super fun to watch. They had to milk goats and then drink the milk.

It's worth going over if you have the time. It's through Friday, 5:30 PM dinner starts and the challenge is at 6 PM. Bisch's is just off of Holmes past the Highway.

Halloween Ideas, Safe Trick-or-Treating

This coming weekend is Halloween weekend and I thought I would post some things that you could do this weekend.

2. Trick or Treat Street: Oct 29th 3-6 PM (Go early, it gets crazy) is at Snake River Landing. Kids trick or treat to businesses and RVS.

3. Trick or Treat on the Greenbelt: Oct 30 6-7 PM games and candy is given out along the green belt by the LDS young single adults.

4. Ririe Spooktackular: Oct 30 4:30- 6 PM this is an event that you can go and enjoy the whole time. A fundraiser dinner starts at 4:30 along with hayrides, there is a pumpkin carving contest, a trunk or treat along main street, and a haunted fire house. It's in downtown Ririe.

I know there are more but those are just the ones I know the most about, have a fun Halloween everybody. Below are the pictures of the pumpkins my husband and I carved for our date this week. We got them at the pumpkin patch a few weeks ago.

Pumpkin Patches and the Rexburg Straw Maze

We had some company this last weekend and their request was to do something "fall-y" there are quite a few Straw or Corn Mazes around here so we choose the Rexburg Straw Maze, which is close to Big Juds where we ate lunch. We made it through the maze pretty fast, but we know it took longer for most people. We also thought it was fun enough to go in again. We did it three times. We opted to go during the day because they haunt it on weekend nights, and I definitely see how it could be scary. I know the weather looks yucky, but it doesn't matter, it stays warm in the maze.

You can buy pumpkins at the maze, but I am a firm believer in going to a real pumpkin patch. Last year we used this website to find a pumpkin patch. We choose Ashland Produce in Jefferson county. It's a cute little farm between Rigby and Ririe where you can either pick pre-picked pumpkins or pick them from the field. From the field they are $.20 a pound and they are beautiful pumpkins.
Look at these beauties:

Also we couldn't resist a few cheesey pics of the baby:
