Smithsonian Tour

By
When Jessica and Blake were with us this summer, they wanted to tour the DC Mall.  So, with my Mom, we drove into DC on a Saturday morning.  First, we walked near the Washington Monument and took lots of photos.  Then we waled to the Museum of Natural History.  We took Blake through the Ocean and mammals and gems exhibits before we found out that the dinosaur exhibit was closed.  They had moved it to a smaller exhibit on the second floor.  We took Blake to the smaller exhibit before leaving the museum.  Next, we ate outside under the shade the umbrella chairs.  My mom treated Megan and Blake to a round of the merry-go-round.  Then we went inside the Air and Space Museum.  We went through the rocket.  That's all we had time for that day.  But it was fun to go into DC for a day.

Christmas in Utah

By
This Christmas we decided to fly Breeze Airlines from Dulles Airport to Provo, UT.  And it was a breeze.  We were able to see Grace performance her dance.  Afterwards, she and her siblings had a photo op with Santa. We also were able to attend Sofia's Christmas concert at school.  Can you see Sofia? Our long-awaited family group photo at the Utah State Capitol turned out beautifully despite the cold.  Thanks, Veronica, for taking the photos. We are grateful for the time we had to spend time with our family during Christmas and New Years Eve.
