St. George Trip II

Here is Corbin and Jadelyn's Funny faces

Uncle Shawn was making Corbin laugh so hard I had to take a picture.

The kids and I stopped at the St. George Temple after the evening events before we went back to the hotel. We could't resist its beauty at night when it is all lit up.

Fall Pictures

Well Fall is here and it is so much fun to actually see trees turning colors!! The kids are actually seeing and feeling the difference between seasons. Before they had to "imagine" what real fall leaves were and soon snow!! We went for a drive up the canyon and ended up getting out and hiking in the trees for a bit and taking some fun pictures.

We saw some deer on our drive up the canyon.

We had to stop for a minute to let the cows get out of the way on the road. The kids loved that one.

The boys: Tanner, Spencer, Ethan and Corbin

You can't resist throwing a bunch of leaves in the air when you are surrounded by so many of them on the ground.

Fall Pics II

Kindergarten Pictures

This was a picture taken on her first "school picture day". Yes, Brad and I are first timers here and it was exciting. look out for one in the mail we got some wallet pictures to send out!

New Camera!!

So I got a new camera from the best dad in the world!!! Its the NIKON D80 and I am loving it! I have used it quite a bit this past few weeks, but I still have a lot to learn. Fun Stuff. I love taking pictures. Thanks Dad. I love you.

What a Hail Storm !!!

Last week we had a huge hail storm come through. Myself from Cali and AZ never saw such a thing!! Yes we did have hail storms in those places, but hail this big was beyong cool to watch. It covered the yard within minutes. Once we knew it had stopped the kids got buckets and went to collect as much ice as they could. They didn't get very much because their hands got to cold holding the ice. I am getting my first exposures of different weather each day that I am here. Crazy, yet so fun!!

Football Season Part I

This is Spencer playing at his football game.
He is Number 87. This is his first season and he is getting better each time he plays. Since Brad and I don't have kids with sports yet, It is fun to go see these boys at their games and be involved. Its great to see them out there playing because they love the game so much.

Ava cheering for Spencer. I have to bring FruitLoops to keep her in the stroller and off the field.

Football Season part II

Ethans Fan Club

Ethan loves football. He is number 40. The kids like to go the games too.

Here are the cheerleaders for the game. They have some good moves.

Children's Museum in Salt Lake

Julie had tickets to go to the Childrens Musuem from her school so we all met up in Salt Lake and had a blast. There was a ball play were the kids put plastic balls in tubes and down chutes and holes, they loved it. They played with magnets, the media center, pretend everything you can think of and miniturized for kids. Play kitchen, house, construction zone, play store, rock wall and more. It was a lot of fun. Thanks Julie for inviting us.

Tanner getting more balls.

Here is a real helicopter on the roof that the kids got to pretend to fly and learn about helicopters.

Ava liked the garden, but wanted to pick more carrots by the fence which required her to climb.

Corbin, Tanner and Spencer did the rock wall.
