Temple Square

Bjorn's choir sang on Temple Square and Enoch requested we take the train! We had fun seeing the lights, listening to the choir sing, and drinking Hot Chocolate - it was COLD!

General Conference

Enoch's dream to see the prophet in real life came true this year. He's been waiting for quite a while! It was great to see his excitement as the prophet came in and then sad to see his disappointment when we couldn't go up and shake the prophet's hand.

Lunch with Suzanne & Anita!

All three of us live in Utah now, so we got together for lunch at Thanksgiving Pointe! Ellie took this picture...

The Pumpkin Patch

Just Ellie and I had a preschool outing to the pumpkin patch and apple orchard. It's so much fun to pick an apple from a tree and eat it while you walk through the orchard - tastes so much better that way.

Grandma's House
