Lilly - February 22nd, 2016

Lilly was here for a couple hours, and it was so nice outside, that we decided to go to the park. She had a blast on the slide, and walking on the Balance Beam!




Zion National Park - February 12-14th, 2016

We had a great 3 days in Zion National Park. The weather was perfect. We were one of the lucky ones staying in the park campground, so we made it up the mountain before they shut down the roads due to all the cars. We saw a few waterfalls. We went and watched the new IMAX film about The National Parks. It was breathtaking! Jessica's family came up for a few hours and we hiked to the south campground Amphitheater and the kids had fun playing on the stage. We also drove through the tunnel and saw the Checkerboard Mesa. That side of Zion has the most unusual formations. I stopped and hiked to my favorite tree growing out of a rock. I take pictures of it in all seasons. It was our maiden voyage for our new Keystone Cougar 5th wheel!!
















Tree Pruning - February 8th, 2016

We decided to pay BA Robinson Tree Service, to come and trim all our trees. We try and trim them ourselves every year, but we can't reach high enough anymore. It only took then a few hours. They ended taking out our flowering plum tree in the front yard because it was dying.







Page, Arizona - February 7th, 2016

Before we left Page, we went to church with Brad's family, then on our way home we stopped at a park for a few minutes, and then we went to the Glen Canyon dam and toured the Visitor Center.







Swimming - February 6th, 2016

After Emily's birthday party, we all went back to the hotel pool. The kids had fun playing with all their cousins. Then we ended the night eating pizza. It was a great day.









Emily's Birthday/Baptism - February 6th, 2016

Emily turned 8 years old today. It was a special day. She was able to be baptized on her actual birthday by her grandpa Hawker. She looked so beautiful in her new white dress. Stephanie made her the most awesome rainbow cake. We all stayed and played games, opened presents,  and ate at the church afterwards.








Lilly & Rocky - January 20th, 2016

Lilly and Rocky came today and had a lot of fun together. They were so excited when the garbage man drove up. Then they played dress up, and loved sitting at the little kids card table to play on the
 I pads, and to eat their lunch.





Dance Recital - January 9th, 2016

We went to Page, Arizona to Izzy and Emily's dance recital. They did a great job.
