Halloween 2008!

Brooklyn was a "Funky Sheep" for Storybook Day at School and a "Funky Witch" for Halloween Night. I guess she's got the "funk" down! Parker was Tom from the book "Ghost Hunters" for Storybook Day and "Scream" for Halloween Night. What fun that Maddie and Tyli stopped by so we could see their darling bee costumes!

St. George


One of our family traditions is to go to St. George and hike on the beautiful red rock. It is always a hit with everyone. We had a great visit, and even saw "Les Mis" at the Tuacahn Theatre which was wonderful - in spite of the unseasonably cold weather (luckily we were prepared with lots of coats and gloves).

Zions




Zion's National Park was so beautiful. We took the tram up and down the different sites and then got off and hiked around. It is truly amazing the beauty there is in these amazing formations so close to our home!

Hiking to Timpanogas Cave!





Labor Day 2008: What a beautiful day to take a hike to Timanogas Cave! It started out raining and cold but we had no fear and forged on and to our pleasant surprise, by the time we got to the trail, the sun came out and it was a perfect day. The last time we did this, I was pregant with Parker, so it was about time to do it again. Unfortunately Dylan had to work or he would have come too - you'll have to ask him some time about his experience the last time he went through the caves.

First Day of School!



Parker and Brooklyn started 3rd and 5th grade this year. They both seem to really like their teachers and enjoy school. Mom was especially happy for school to start.

Summer Highlights




Posing With Cousins: We are having so much fun with my sister Amy and her kids here from Florida for a visit. This is in my sister-in-law Jodi's cute backyard and a bunch of really cute kids.


Train Ride to the Gateway: We toook a fun train ride to the Gateway Mall with a bunch of the cousins and they had a blast on the train and playing in the water fountain.



Swimming at Grandma and Grandpa's: One of the best summer memories is swimming at my mom and dad's pool. It is a family tradition and the kids love it. Darin especially loves throwing them in and seeing how high they can fly!
