Elk Time

First Day of School

The kids were so excited to start school this year.  They all have amazing teachers.  Reagan gets to go to all day kindergarten!

Family Reunion

We took a big family vacation this year with my entire family up to Cour d'Alene, Idaho.  My Grandparents have a summer home there.  We met up with both my mom's sisters and their families.  It was so much fun getting to know two of my cousins Sierra and Caleb.  The kids adored them.

 Ashton lucked out and got to ride with Gram and Papa.

 We HAD to stop at the Elk Country Visitor Center.  It was pretty cool actually.

 The minute we hit Grammi and Gramps' the kids dove in the water - clothes and all.  We spent most of the week at their private beach getting a tan.  It was the most relaxing vacation I've had to date!

 We really enjoyed touring the town.  It is such a fun place.  The kids found all kinds of neat places to play.  My whole family stayed in one house together.  It made for some fun meal times and even better party games after the kids were in bed.

We can't wait until the next reunion!

Ogden Temple Open House

My parents live across the street from the Ogden temple, so my kids really feel like it's their temple.  We've watched the entire demolition and reconstruction week by week of this new beautiful temple.  It was such a privilege to finally be able to take the kids inside.

A Family "Picnic"

It was supposed to be a family picnic that turned into a hike down Little Cottonwoid canyon. It was really beautiful, next time we'll wear tennis shoes :). Life is always an adventure with Aaron.
