The last 3 days...

Life has been kind of crazy since we got back. But we have filled our time with some pretty good things. We got to go with Teague to the Oquirrh Mountain Temple dedication. That was a great experience. We could definitely feel the Spirit. Hopefully, Teague will always remember it and have the desire to go back as soon as he can. We are so excited to have this temple just up the street.
New FAVORITE family night treat (at least for the summer). Sorry Yogurt Vibe - we will be back to you but probably not on a Monday night. I know frozen yogurt is so much better for you but you can't beat the deal or the flavors. $3 for our whole family to have a snow cone. Seriously? It is buy 1 get 1 free on Mondays at the place on 90th and 1300 West (in the Stock parking lot).
Flavor Selections:
Teague and Elise: Sour Watermelon, Apple Pie and Toxic Waste (eww? but they loved it)
Gavin: Banana and Apricot
Annie and Kenyon: Tiger's Blood (strawberry and coconut)
and next time...Quinn needs her own. Or at least she thinks he does. She LOVED it (almost as much as she loves sand).

A little walk at Cascade Springs (it is way the heck up American Fork canyon). It is a beautiful drive and the springs are pretty. It is a paved, nature walk and just perfect for us. (Reminder to the brain dead moms like me: take food for the baby. It is way too far to go without being prepared.) **Courtney - thanks for the fun idea!!

Thanks for the Shaved ice tip!

So glad that you guys were able to go to the TEMPLE for the dedication. We are so blessed to have so many temples so close.
Glad you were able to get away before school starts. It will be weird for us to have a traditional schedule and not year-round.

PS- If you are ever at Cascade Springs with a hungry kid, stop by my house and get some snacks. No one leaves hungry.

You have such a beautiful family.

Good times. Quinn is not allowed to be that big. She is supposed to stay a little baby so that I can hold her next time I see her. I know I'm probably preaching to the choir though.

Ahhhh . . . the beach and now this? Sounds like the perfect ending to summer vacation.
