Here is me hiking in the Wasatch Mountain Range East of SLC.


The temperature, already in the 70s, drops another 10 deg around the mountain streams. They are icy cold.


Enjoying the cool mountain air.

Like I said earlier, click on the top photo to see all the photos in the album.

I rented a mountain bike and took a ski lift to the top of a Park City mountain and took the fast way down. That was a blast. Also, did the Temple Square tour and a two day-hikes in the nearby mountains. All-in-all it was a fun trip- though I did manage to squeeze some work into it!

Took the girls to Ft Gordon today and after taking off Kenny's training wheels, she quickly learned to ride her bike. Just needs to work on turning. She's very proud of herself.

We finally got around to taking pictures of the girl's Easter dresses. Kiley and Bailey had a fun time posing.

Bailey decided to help herself and make chocolate milk. She had about an inch of chocolate on the bottom of the cup, it was enough to make 3 large cups of chocolate milk. She only spilled a little- but we aren't encouraging her.

Friday, after Chad came home from work, we went out to the lakes and played on the playground and visited with our neighbor who was camping out there. We stayed for a BBQ.


Afterward, we watched the horses grazing by the stables. The stables were closed for the afternoon, but we enjoyed looking at the horses.


On the ride home, we saw an old Army medical helicopter and Kiley and Bailey wanted to get out and take a look. They wanted Chad to drive it, but he told them he didn't have the keys.


Wednesday, while Chad was at work, all the girls went to the strawberry patch and got a bunch of fresh strawberries.


Today Kennedy continued enjoying her Spring break and posed for this picture.


After work today, Chad worked on the pond, adding a few more plants and moving rocks around.


That's all for now-

Chad made these for my Birthday.

We made indian fried bread (fritters here in the South) on Saturday. The extra girl in the photos is Kennedy's friend. It was a good rainy-day activity.

Chad took the twins to the stables this morning. The girls had a great time riding Buttercup. They both thought it was so funny that one of the ponies was named Ty-Ty- since that's how Kiley pronounces her name sometimes.
