Family Home Evening

On Monday we went to Trafalga for Family Home Evening. I had some free passes that needed to be used before the end of the month, so this was a perfect time to go. The whole family played a round of miniature golf, rode the roller coaster and the bumper boats and then played in the arcade. We really had a great time together and enjoyed all the fun!

Blake Starts Kindergarten


Today was Blake's first day of kindergarten! He was so excited and ready for this special day. I am going to miss having my little man around the house but I know he is going to enjoy his time at school. I love you Blake!

Mother's Day


Today was the day! Macy and Abby started 4th and 2nd grade today. They had a hard time falling asleep last night because they were so excited. Their teachers this year are wonderful and I just know it's going to be a fabulous year for them. Blake starts Kindergarten a week later and he is just as thrilled as can be too.

Happy Mother's Day to me! I love you girls!

Kennecott Copper Mine


Yesterday we had a little excursion with the kids to the Kennecott Copper Mine in Utah. It is the worlds largest man-made excavation and is so large that it's even visible from space. I referred to it as our own Grand Canyon because it is that impressive. I think the kids were impressed!

Reunion


The end of July my mom's side of the family and a little reunion at Mutual Dell in American Fork Canyon. What a beautiful place!

We had so much fun chatting with cousins, playing games, and going on the zip line. We all loved it!

Pioneer Trek


This last month Clint and I had the opportunity to attend our Stake's Pioneer Trek. Since I had never been on trek before I wasn't quite sure what to expect, but I loved it! We really had some amazing experiences there with the youth and our testimonies were definitely strengthened.
Walking through knee high mud along the trail.

Sunburned and no make-up, but still happy!

Our last day at Disneyland

The Monsters Inc. Door

Some sweet teenage girls gave the kids their balloons.
Macy, Abby and Blake were in heaven!


Spending some time with the cousins.


I was terrified for Macy to ride this one, but she
tells us it was her favorite!


The Dumbo Ride


Had to get a pic with Abby and the castle.
