The best part about living in our house is the pond and field behind our house.  The kids were super bored today, so Wade blew up the rafts and took them to the water.  It was super cold in the water, but they liked it.

Courtesy of the good folks at a blogging conference, Wade and the kids came up to park city for a BBQ dinner (sponsored by Busch’s Beans) and riding the Alpine Slides! We had so much fun.  We rode the lift to the top of the mountain, which was gorgeous.  Then raced down the mountain on …

This year’s Lehi Round Up Parade theme was, “Guess What I Saw”.  Our ward’s float was “The Three Little Pigs”.  Since all three of the kids were in the parade, and Wade was at work, I was on my own for parade viewing. Luckily I saw mom and Bruce along the parade route and sat …

We had so much fun last week. We drove on Monday, May 10th from Lehi to Newport Beach. We made amazing time and got in around 2pm.  We stayed with Grandma Farrell, who was as gracious as a hostess could be.  The first day, the kids ran down to the bay to check out the …

This week the fifth graders all over Utah County went to BYU to perform some songs about America. They call it Hope of America.  Nathan is in Yellow at the very top left.  We had a great time enjoying the festivities. Here is the infamous light show:   And a clip of the many songs …
