Waterfall hike

I hiked up to the waterfall behind the house and thought you might enjoy seeing the view.

Afton, Mei Mei, and Ben come to visit

We enjoyed seeing Afton, Mei Mei and Ben a couple of weeks ago. Thanks for coming to visit.

Easter Fun!

Here is the Easter Bunny with Moma and Papa. We are visiting Robert and Marisa in Folsom California. We attended the primary activity, where the children made bunny masks, colored pictures, planted seeds in pots, and collected colored plastic filled eggs outside on the church property.

Robert and Marisa's church house is right next to the Sacramento Temple. This is a very nice church with lots of landscape around the building. Great for hiding the eggs. Marisa is in the primary presidency. We all had a fun time at the primary activity.

Later that day we visited the Folsom Prison Museum and ate at a Thai restaurant. This was a fantastic day.
The next day we went downtown Folsom and walked around the Historic part of town. We took pictures in front of the Historic Museum. Papa and Robert went to a church meeting and Moma and Marisa went shopping and getting great deals on shoes and clothes.

Thanksgiving Family Activity

Papa, Moma, Bryce, Maile, Brady, Leilani, Carter and Robert, Marisa rode the Front Runner from Ogden to Salt Lake to see the lights on Temple Square.

Richard, Courtney, Afton, Madelyn and Ben also joined us for Thanksgiving. We all had a great meal and enjoyed family over the Thanksgiving Weekend.
Here is the weather in Utah the first week in December. Here is Brad using the snow blower and in his new machine to help clear all that snow off the driveway. I know all of you really want to ride on the tractor and plow snow.




Well, this is the picture of a hawk in our backyard. He is eating one of Richard's families chickens. We gave the rest of the chickens to a neighbor. This chicken kept wondering all over the neigborhood. We think this chicken got out of the chicken coop, when the hawk got a tasty meal. It was one of the black chickens.
I am trying to learn from Minda on how to blog. We just spent 25 hours driving from Ogden to Waco Texas. I will try to improve our Blog.

We enjoyed seeing Bryce, Maile, Brady, Leilani, and CARTER!!! Thanks for the hospitality. You have a great family.

Painting Gallery

I wanted to show you the painting gallery with the newest addition being Mei Mei. Lana finished it yesterday and will be working on another of her choosing in the coming months. I hope you enjoy them.

Minda, Alan, Samuel and Jacob head out for Texas

Early in the morning, Minda, Alan, Samuel and Jacob start on the road to a new life in Texas. After spending a night in Denver, they arrived at Uncle Tracy and Glenda's for a couple of days. They moved into their home on Saturday with the help of their new Elder's Quorum. All were safe.
