Harvest Festival At Our Country Mercantile











Then on Sat. Oct. 11th, I again met Jay at our Merc & we watched BYU play NMU in Provo & beat them 21-3. They had their 16th straight win and have a 6-0 record & may possibly qualify for a bowl game! They are ranked eight and nine in the polls. I have really been getting into this college football thing. It was also an extremely busy day at our harvest festival, which is a very good deal, & it wasn't even our normally busiest weekend. Here are several more pictures taken inside our store (picture murals of the cable bridge & grape vineyards & fields in the Tri-City area, our deli, homemade icecream & chocolates, gourmet items, other food items, fresh produce & crafts) & around the outside where much of the festivities take place. Check out countrymerc.com to see what we have to offer there.














On Friday, Oct. 3rd I met Jay at our Country Mercantile to watch BYU football play at Utah State & win 34-14. Yeh! Then the Pasco 7th Branch Young Adults came to have a fun night at our harvest festival. Jay & I occasionally attend the branch with our calling as Stake Young Adult Coordinators. It started pouring rain & we eventually had to take down our fun obstacle course castle & frog. They still played on the pyramids & in the mazes, road the wagon to the pumpkin patch, visited our petting zoo and drank hot chocolate as they visited. The missionaries were also there to join in on some of the activity, mostly just talking. Some had to go inside and try out some of our famous chocolates, etc.

That looks so fun. I have never been to the store. My boys would have a blast out there. I would probably end up at the top of the Pyramid or inside of the bounce toys dragging them out because they wouldn't want to leave. What a great setup.
