Fun Trip!

This is what is looked like when we arrived at the North Rim, Grand Canyon! We were originally wearing shorts :)
Here we are at Zion National Park in southern Utah.

This is an awsome view of Zion in the background



We saw this snake on a hike!


We were glad our campsite had flush toilets right near by with me being pregnant and 3 girls!

Audrey's Baptism


It's hard to believe we have a child old enough to be baptised! Audrey got to pick out a dress for after the baptism and fell in love with this beautiful pale pink one. She couldn't find a white one she liked as much, so here she is, setting a new trend in LDS girls baptism dresses! The spirit was strong, and we are so proud of her. We did have to go a couple hours before the baptism and buy last minute new shoes because her other white ones disappeared from our house somehow...

San Diego Zoo, Snow, and More!

We recently went to Redlands, CA to visit Duane's sister and her family. We had a blast going to the San Diego ZOO (with a discount, yeah!).

If you look really close you can see the panda. It's the same panda that played on "Kung Fu Panda". That whats I told the kids anyway:)

The highlight for me was watching the gorillas. Especially the one that picked it's nose and was eating it's bugers! The girls got to see a close up of a giant gorillas rear end, which was facinating for them. I love the picture of the gorilla holding her baby too.
The day after we got back from CA we went sledding at the gravel pits near Strawberry (eating breakfast at The Strawberry Lodge cafe, a family favorite). We of course had to make a snowWOMAN. Thats what you do when you have all girls!


I also wanted to post a picture of my brothers awsome headstone/bench. As we were driving to the grave in Casa Grande, listening to a church CD, the song I played on my viola at his funeral "I know that my redeemer lives" came on right as we pulled into the gravesite. (now think of the twilight zone theme song in your head)
