October is a great time to be in Southern-ish Utah. Nice weather for hiking, and beautiful aspen leaves. And the cabin wasn't rented, so we got to be there with cousins!
We stopped at Bryce Canyon National Park on the way there and back for a quick look at the views. Andrew is in 4th grade so we have a free national parks pass.
The next day the older cousins and dads hiked the Willis Creek Slot Canyon.
While they did that, the youngest went with the moms on a ride through Dixie National Forest. We saw lots of yellows and pretty views, but I think the brilliant reds and oranges had already faded, and at the top the leaves had already fallen. But the kids love to ride in the side-by-side. Millie and Spencer even got drowsy.
The best part of the cabin is the kids just play and play. They build with sticks by the creek and imagine new games on the big rock by the driveway.
We roasted marshmallows and played games inside at the big table. We ate great and I read books and talked and laughed.

That sky! Those rock formations! Truly beautiful, and such a fun/relaxing getaway.
