Sunday-- Church and LDS Temple

On Sunday we went to church with Mike and Autumn and then went out to the LDS Temple visitors center. It was Christmas time so there were tree decorated all over the visitors center. We had a very relaxing Sunday afternoon.

Capital Reef National Park--UEA weekend

Over UEA weekend we took atvantage of school being out and visited Capital Reef National Park. I have to say that Utah is one of the prettiest states in the country. I think it has the most national parks out of all the states. We love living here and love being able to visit some of Gods creations. Below is Hickmans Arch
Why do my kids always like to be near any cliff? They love being daredevils, but it scares the heck out of me.

Strong man contest.... No the rock did not budge at all.

hmm alex thought she could move mountains with here pinky finger.

There were tons of places to climb around.The kids thought the following set of rocks look like a giant butt. So, they all had to take their picture below the butt crack.

Halloween

What a fun Halloween the kids had. Here is a picture of the fun kids Ethan went trick or treating with. Ethan is the kid in the ski mask, he was a robber.

This is the teenage group that went trick or treating together. Alex and Jordan were hobos.

Reflections

Ethan's fourth grade teacher requires that everyone participates in the the reflections program at school. The theme this year was "Diversity Means". Ethan did a board relecting how people live in different homes around the world. He won the 2nd place award for his grade and his type of project (mixed media), Only first place winners continued on to the finals. Great job Ethan.
