Family Traditions



For as long as I can remember. Once a year the Potter family makes a trek up to Bringham City, Utah. We look forward to this day all year long. It is not just because we get to eat awesome prime rib, or we get to pick pumpkins to carve for Halloween, It is one of the few days a year we get to be together as a family.

The first stop on our traditional trek was Smith and Edward's ' The Country Boy Story.' We always find things we don't need. We find things that are extremely unusual. We find things that can bring the family to the floor rolling with laughter.
Who knew there was a pot big enough to cook a six year old in?


After we got our kicks from exploring Smith and Edwards. We made our way down Highway 89 to Paul's Pumkin Patch. This is were we go every year to pick out the perfect pumpkin to carve for halloween.


As soon as we finished gathering our pumpkins, and getting various fruits and veggies. We went accross the street to Maddox's Steakhouse. This is a resturant that our family has been going to since we were all little kids, when they served kid meals in paper cars. Maddox is famous for their beef and buffalo. Infact they keep their grazing buffalos behind the resturant in an open field.


It was a great dinner. The food was good. The company was great. Best of all, we were together as a family. Our Dinner ended with a surprise. Baby Lydia was the bearer of the good news. My Brother Jeffrey and Kathryn announced they were expecting a baby.


Until next year........
