Skyfest!

We had such a fun time at the annual Skyfest last year, that at 7:00am, I pulled Elina out of bed, threw on some warm clothes and headed down to the Bicentennial Park. She was mesmerized by the balloons and couldn't take her eyes off them. I'm excited for the years to come when she'll be old enough to really enjoy them!

Summer Harvest

When Bryce and I were first married, we made a random trip to Lowes in St. George. We walked out with a grape plant. Having no idea if they would even grow in Cedar City, we stuck it in the ground and hooked it up to the drip system. After three years, we had this awesome harvest of grapes. Yum!! I also had to show off my roses. I've never considered myself to be a "green thumb" but I'm discovering that I really enjoy plants. Who'd have ever thought :)

Picture Day!

My sister, Sheri, blessed her baby Thomas on September 9. My entire family made it, so we decided to take advantage of the moment and take family pictures. They didn’t turn out as well as we would have liked, but we had fun none-the-less. Matt & Jeralyn let us stay with them so we didn't have to crowd everyone out at Sheri's. Elina had a great time getting more acquainted with Leah. They especially loved dancing together!!
