Zion Nat'l Park

Over UEA weekend the kids and I took a trip to Southern Utah for a few days.  My brother Chris and I took the kids to Zions National Park did three hikes with the children.  The first pic is Lower Emerald 

Pool.  The little ones did so good.  

 Coming down from Emerald Pools we stopped for a quick photo op.

 Momma is a little tired of the whining that accompanied the last hike and Zach was not so fun to pack.

Presley turns 4

Presley had her friends over for a birthday party.  They all dressed in their princess dresses.  They were absolutely adorable.  They played games, had pink "pupcakes" opened presents.  Lot's of giggling from these little princesses.  I can't believe that she is 4 years old.  It has flown by and she has been an absolute delight to have in our family, love you my princess Presley.

Family Pictures

We managed to get a few Family Pictures this year.  The kids are growing up fast.

Dallin - 11 years old

Jackson - 7 years old

Presley - 3 1/2 years old

Zachary - 10 months

Football Season

Dallin played his first year with West Haven Football and he really enjoyed it. It was a big commitment and he put his heart into it. We were very proud of him. He played TE and made a touchdown in his very first game!!

Zachary is One Year Old

Zach celebrated hist first birthday on Sept. 26th Even though he has been a fussy baby we still love our little guy!!

Spring Break 2010 in St. George

Dallin, Jackson, Presley and I went hiking up on the red rocks above St. George. The boys went through the narrows several times. We love the red rocks they are so fun to play on!

It was such a beautiful day in Dixie!!

Annual spring branding in Malad.  The kids love to go although there isn't

much for them to do anymore.  They just want to be with cousins and play

on the hay bales and chase the cows.

Baby Kittens

Our Cat, Tiger, had four kittens.  Long story but here is the short version.

We had her fixed over a year ago, and not to long after she went missing.

Several months later she showed up, and then this spring she had babies,

so you come to whatever conclusion you want but we still ended up with

kittens.  Luckily we got rid of three of them and the kids wanted to keep

Racer, who looks just like her mom.  Kittens are fun but grow up to be big 

cats.  Presley and Jackson can't leave her along for long, very surprised 

she has survived all the love they give her.
