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.

The best way to start any day is to eat your Daddy's Cheerios!!!

Me and Hanna on our way to the Selena Gomez concert... what a great Christmas gift for her, she had no idea we were going and was so thrilled!!! I love my daughter, what a gift she is in my life :)

Remember when you were this small and could fit into a basket? Me neither :)

Thanksgiving Day Aaron, Nicole and Brian took the kidlets out to the Calgary Corn Maze, it was such a great day for all of them, Kieran especially enjoyed the goats (or so I hear :) ). I spent the day at home getting our family dinner ready and then they took Hanna and Elijah back home with them so I could work in peace :) Thanks you two!!

Tetherball with Aaron... go Elijah/Hanna go!!!

Pillow Bouncing!

Yup, those are my turkey's!!! Love them!!!

Classic Kieran!!!

Well, it has been some time since I've had a chance to sit and update our blog.. we've been so busy!!! We sold our Townhouse in June and bought an amazing fixer upper and moved in here at the end of July, so we have been very busy with that. Our summer has been filled with birthdays, friends and family, Hanna and Elijah spent 3 days out at the farm by themselves with Grandma and Papa and got the chance to go our and pick up round bails, which I think was the highlight of the trip, other than when they got to jump on the bails :) And today is September 1st so the kids are off at school and I am saddened by the quiet it in the house - but only for a moment as Kieran is sleeping so it is a great time for me to take some time for myself and get on the computer and update this for you all!! I will take some more finished photos of our house for you all to see, my friend Jenny is going to come help decorate in Hanna's room for us with some cool flowers, she can't wait!!! So enjoy the pictures, we all do and I'll be back much sooner this time!!!

Lunch at Elbow Falls... what a great outing!!

Cool geocache

He's only a little excited isn't he?

These are some images of our house we bought... as you can see it needs some TLC... but it is amazing!!! The top picture is of our covered deck, which is gone, and then some pics of bedrooms and bathrooms. I'll post our makeover pics sooner than later!!!

This was one of the most amazing days our family has shared in... being Sealed at the Temple for all eternity... we were so blessed to have our Missionaries with us and all of our dearest friends that were able to share in this day with us!! The weather was just perfect for our arrival and departure as the rains started on our way home... thanks so much to everyone for all your love and support... we love you all so much!!!

Here is Kieran helping Sabine with the gardening... how he loves the dirt!!!
