Could this little man be any cuter?  I think not!!

Conference Centre light show.



The flowers at Temple Square were unlike anything I've seen before, colors and varieties, it was stunning!!







These 2 are the Vernal Temple, what an amazing story this is about how it became a Temple.  It was in disrepair for so many years, falling apart until one day the Stake President received a call from the Asst. to President Hinkley the night before he showed up.  He came out with his counsellors and were discussing what they could do to this building, the Stake President had no idea what was going on until he got a phone call a while later saying we are going to turn the building into a Temple, but you cannot tell anyone, not even your wife!  So for a year they were planning and planning until finally it was announced!!  Can you imagine how hard that was for the Stake President?  Sitting on such an amazing secret and had to wait a year before you could tell anyone?  The miracles this Temple went through were amazing, I wish I could write them all down.  It was a privledge to see it, thanks Kirk!!


The Bountiful Temple was by far one of our favourite places to stop.  Not only did we get to tour the grounds by ourselves since it was closed, but we had the time to reflect at the pool and really enjoy ourselves.  What an amazing Temple!!



I love my children more than anything, and to see the joy in their eyes as they walked around the Temples, knowing what they are and what they mean to us was amazing.  They are truly the best blessings in our lives!!

This is the "Castle" Playground in West Jordan, the kids had so much fun playing here!!  This park had about 4 different playgrounds for the kids to choose from, it was a blast!! 

This Jump n' Jive in Vernal, a play place full of these inflatable jump houses... we had 3 very tired kids... and some tired adults as well.
