Washington D.C. (3 weeks ago)

Kipp, Chelsea, Ayden, Cami, Zack, Adam, Betty, Marc with the Washington Memorial behind us. We had a great trip and made some great memories. It was great being together seeing the sites in Washington D.C.

Adam is worth a lot!
We visited the Bureau of Engraving and printing. It was really cool to see how money is made.

We visited the Bureau

Adam had a great time with Zack at the Aerospace museum. I think this was my favorite.

Zack was a little angel on this trip. Even in the heat he slept great and was happy all the time.

We visited the Vietnam memorial and found my uncle David P Dunyon's name on the wall. It was a special moment to be there and see his name with the thousands of others who died for this country.

We rented a car for three hrs. so we could drive to the D.C. temple. This is what it looks like from the freeway.

This temple is beautiful. I'm glad that we took the time to go and visit it.

We had crazy weather while we were there. First our plane was diverted because there were major storm watch going on and a tornado touched down right in the city. Then it was a serious down poor the night we got there.

We went to Jim Matheson's office so that we could go on a tour of the Capital. It was really cool.

Easter in Sunny St. George

On thursday my mom called to let me know that my Grandpa had fallen and broken his hip. I felt that we should go down and visit him because he wasn't doing very well, plus we wanted to spend some quality time with our kids before we left for Austrailia for a week. Ty and Randi had decided not to go so there was an empty room at Dad and Mom's house. It was so much fun there. The Kids had a blast at the Easter egg hunts, we went to Pizza Factory(a tradition), we shopped around at the outlets for a while, visited Grandpa at the rehab center, went swimming at the Zimmermans and absolutley enjoyed the wheather! Zack started coughing on saturday and sat night he was coughing so bad that he couldn't breath. Iwas so freaked out so we called Chelsea at 4 am. She was luckily just getting home from work. She told us what to look for and finally Zack calmed down. I was so scared because he is so little and I didn't really know what to do. But except for that we had a great time in St. George.

Addie, Ellie, Chase, Emma and the Easter Bunny

Emma had a sticker in one of her eggs that siad she had won a grand prize basket. I pretty much have never seen her so stinkin excited.

Ellie and Hailie checking their eggs for a grand prize. They didn't get one but they had a great time anyway.

Ellie having a great time at the Easter egg hunt!

Adam, Ellie, Emma, Addie, Corbin, Dillan, Branson, Mykelle, and Devin. We had an easter egg hunt at grandma's house. Usually we tell the kids a specific ammount of eggs that they can get and all the big kids run and find all the eggs and the hunt is finished in about 2 seconds. This year we did it a little bit different, all the kids had their own color of eggs and they got to find eight each. It was really fun because they couldn't find them very easily. All the little kids found theirs way before the big kids. I was a Blast watching the older kids trying to find theirs!

Catching up on December stuff

Island Park with Cami's family. We had a blast snowmobiling, hot-tubbing, playing games and just hanging out. There was so much snow-it snowed the entire time we were there!

Here are the girls playing in the snow. Ellie was standing next to uncle Ty when suddenly she sunk in several feet of snow! Only her head was sticking out! Luckily Ty was right there to save her.


Hot-tubbing with all of the cousins


Happy New Year!
