St George!

 

I love St. George! It was fun to see things we hadn't before...we did some of the walking tour, which is mostly old pioneer homes, Brigham Young's Winter Home and the Tabernacle...places like that. Thomas Judd's store was very fun. They serve homemade soup and breadsticks and sell fun little old fashioned candy and sodas. I just noticed the phone booth picture is sideways! I'll fix that later...maybe!

Jacob Hamblin Home

 

The Jacob Hamblin Home in Santa Clara. I hadn't been for about 10 years, but it is always an interesting place. Megan is pointing to cotton, and we got to pick some peaches off the trees. Megan even endured the LONG tour by the senior missionary. What a patient girl! Someone found the stone in 1965...100 years later that Jacob had carved. The little person is an Indian sign for someone in mourning. He had lost his wife a couple years before and it was very hard for him.

Tuacahn!

 

These people know how to put on a show! I am telling you...I LOVED it! I had seen Peter Pan there, and I loved that, but this was just such a perfect musical for Tuacahn's outdoor setting, plus who doesn't love Footloose if you are from Utah?

Tanner Riding the Bull!

Megan's ride is below, and also other pictures from the Lindon Days fair, and the boys' Uintas camping trip. Good times!

Megan Riding the Bull!

Fun at the Fair

 

The kids had a great time going down all the slides, petting the animals at the petting zoo, getting face paintings, eating shaved ice, riding the mechanical bull and trying out the climbing wall. The mechanical bull was a blast for Tanner and Megan. Tanner would like one in his back yard! Summer is comely to a close very quickly. It has definitely been busy and fun!

Camping in the Uintas

 

The boys(minus little Gavin) went camping with Grandma Leesa, Grandpa Mike, Tyler and the boys, and some of the Washburns and their families on July 31st-August 1st. They backpacked their belongings in, and only complained a little! ;) They really enjoy camping-all three of them. They seemed to have a good time and the scenery looks so beautiful! They used up a lot of their energy...hmmmm....maybe they should go more often!

The Most Wonderful Time of the Year

Our summer has been great,
but I've gotta tell ya...I'm ready!

Six-year photo shoot

Sorry, but it's more pics! It's just that time of year, what can I say?
Happy Pioneer Day!






Poor Meg. This says it all! How many more times am I going to put her through this?

Only about 12!

Oquirrh Mountain Temple

 

We had the chance to go through the new Oquirrh Mountain Temple. Of course, it is beautiful and it was fun for the kids to see. We got some great pics this time. The day we went through the Draper Temple, it was very rainy and cold.
