Zion

Now that we have our Sunday afternoons back we have been taking advantage and going out as a family to enjoy our weekend. Today was Zion's. It was magnificent! A little chilly but with snow on the peaks of the mountains it gave it a new look. We hiked to Emerald Pool and only made it to the first but that is progress! We haven't done that one so it was a nice change. The kids really liked it (as you can tell from the funny faces!) We also drove through the long tunnel and slowed at the windows since there wasn't anyone behind us. What a beautiful day!

Panaca

To celebrate Celeste's birthday we went out to Panaca for a visit. While there we went to Cathedral Gorge and it was incredible! We are already planning our trip back with Grandpa McArthur to explore more of the caves. Keena and I are too woosy to actually go too far back into them.

It was a short trip but super fun! Nick and James ended up going out shooting so no pictures of them. What a great day!

Cousins

We have been lucky enough to have Bob and Malea join us from Provo permanently! Drew turned 6 and we had a lot of fun with ice cream cone cupcakes, presents, and lots of friends! In a spontaneous trip Celeste and James came down and so we had a lot of cousins playing together! They are so cute so I'll let the photos speak for themselves.

New Year, New Post!

The Christmas season is finally over and I can blog again! The boys went with Grandpa Larson and cut down his tree.

Miss Liv and I were able to go see The Nutcracker. She loved it! I'm glad to take her but I'm not a big fan.

Christmas came and the children were spoiled. Ryan got a Mechatar (I still don't know what it is). Drew got an easel so he can color with markers or chalk. Liv got a Rapunzel doll.

We rang in the New Year with cupcakes from 25 Main and mustaches!

And what better way to celebrate New Years Day than with Strawberry Waffles and Whip Cream!

Here is to a New Year and me keeping up with the blog! Next post My Goals for this year!
