"Bear"

Bear...that's what we call her!

Sunday afternoon

The girls have so much fun feeding Claire...(not sure if she gets any in her mouth) But, it's an activity to them.  After taking the pictures of the girls I notice Jared & Zach reading their Sunday magazines...what good boys they are!

Family Ritual

Same spot on the couch...different day, different snack!

Still in LOVE after 12 years!

Bowling with Grandma...

Candy Houses

A Christmas tradition we will never let go of...thanks Mom for hosting a great evening!

Temple lights for FHE

We had a great experience at the temple lights this holiday season.  We walked around and looked at the lights and then had our FHE lesson on the temple grounds.  It was a special FHE lesson I'll never forget. I love the Christmas season!

They had a blast even though it was freezing at the game...they got to see Todd & Nate too!

Our Fall break trip to Utah - Oct. 10th-17th

Wow...it's about time I update my poor blog.  I'm sorry for slacking off...hopefully I still have friends.  I love looking at all of your amazing blogs and I feel sad that I don't have a chance to comment anymore but I hope you understand and know that I'm always checking up on all the updates...so keep blogging and will try harder to keep mine up to date.  Well...I'm back tracking a little.  This was our family trip to Utah during Fall Break.  We stayed at our good friend's cabin in Ceder Hills.  They were so nice to let us stay.  It was the most gorgeous time of year with the changing leaves!  We had a wonderful and relaxing time.  Scott & Sarah's family were up there at the same time visiting Scott's family so it was great to be with them too.

This was our view from our back door...beautiful!!!

Every morning we would go on a walk up the hill...what an amazing view!

The kids were in Heaven!

At Gardener's Village...the kids were on a scavenger hunt to find all the witches.

Thanksgiving Point was by far my favorite day...the kids too!

We got lost in a corn maze...fun times!

The kids thought this rocking chair was so cool...they each wanted their own picture in this chair.

This was the highlight for the girls...Audrey and Ellie dressed up as every princess imaginable!

 Dallin had fun being the Knight...

Pony rides were the theme of our trip...they never wanted it to end!

I love this picture cuz it looks like Audrey has dimples...

We drove to Logan one day and walked around Utah State.

Watching the ducks...

This was Audrey's favorite...

I love these smiles...

Wow, they're cute...

We hit up the BYU book store...

The boys really wanted to see this...

We went to the cutest little farm at Thanksgiving point...

more pony rides...

Well...that was our Fall break trip and here is our seating arrangement in the car.

Oh the joy of driving!
