Spring Break

First Stop: Orem
Tiger Lily found her cousins dress up box. This was her favorite outfit. She liked to pretend she was "Maria" from the "Sound of Music".

We found some snow up American Fork Canyon. We had a blast sledding and making a snow man. Thank you snow for sticking around so we could keep good on our promise to our children. *they were upset that we didn't take them skiing a few months ago.



Snapdragon in a replica of "Sue" the T-Rex's head at the BYU paleontology museum.

Second Stop: Salt Lake City
Highlight of Snapdragons trip; riding the trax in downtown SLC.

Temple Square

"This is the Place" monument

Hill Airforce Base in Ogden. We were very impressed with this museum. Its free (donations accepted) and any little boy will love it. Don't forget to stop by the kids area. They have dress up (tiger lily was not impressed by their selection) and flight simulators.


Snapdragon loved to play with his cousins dog, "Lucy".

Third Stop: Vernal
Vernal Temple

Look who started walking Easter Weekend!


Spending time with Grandpa at the Dinosaur museum in Vernal. Tiger Lily loved the Woolly Mammoth.

Highlight of Miracle Gro's trip. Going to the rifle range with my dad.

Fourth Stop: Springville
We stayed with my grandparents for a day to visit and recharge before our journey home.

On the way home...
Cove Fort Tour- It was so windy and cold. We got the speedy version of the tour.

Vegas Stop: to and from UT, we made a pit stop with some family friends.
Here we are at the Hoover Dam. Yes, that is a bridge being built over the canyon next to the dam. Traffic will no longer have to go over the dam. This bridge is huge and very impressive.

We had a very relaxing and fun trip. Thanks to all who put us up during our trip!

Fletch has the guns...but who brought the butter?

We traded the butter to some of the local Indians. Life is full of trade-offs.
