Working with Dad

Its that time again! Time to get stocked up on wood for the winter. Angel spent a few hours splitting wood and Anthony stacked it for him. I love his little squat to drop the wood.

Meet Gary

Want to know what we do for fun in Virgin at the Staples compound? Meet Gary. Gary is the kids pet tumbleweed. They found him at my dads house and tied a rope to him and dragged him around like their pet. When they were done playing with him the tied him to the fence so he wouldnt blow away. I love when kids use their imaginations!

Zion and Kolob

Saturday before last we decided to head up to zion for a picnic in the rain. We brought some of the cousins. We had fun playing in the rain. We were all soaking wet when we got home. Then sunday we drove up to Kolob in between sessions. I cant remember the last time I went to Kolob. Probably at least 3 years. It is hard to believe it is right up the road from us! So beautiful!

My Birthday

I want to thank my family and friends for the wonderful birthday I had yesterday. I got to spend time with a bunch of my friends from high school. We went to lunch at oscars in Springdale. Thank you for all of the thoughtful gifts also. I love them. I am blessed to have such good friends who have loved and supported me and my family, especially this past year. We then went to John and Lorenas for dinner. It was nice to spend time with them and Joels family. Lorena made some delilcious crapes. I love my family and love spending time with them no matter what were doing. Thanks everybody!
