Conference Weekend fun..........

Along with being spiritually fed by all the wonderful talks of this general conference......

We also went up to carter mountain for the annual apple picking festival, got some delicious apples, and enjoyed being physically fed delicious apple crisp on icecream!!!

Cash is in a phase where he only wants me to hold him......but we tried to get him to ride on daddy's shoulders as we walked up and down the mountain!

right at first

hating it....i want my mommy
up on the block getting the best ones!

some apples were HUGE.....almost as big as Chip's head!!!

Emily getting her first experience at the orchard!

Cash wanted to pick some too.......altho mostly just the gross ones on the ground!

Had to throw in another picture of the great old man band they had - and beautiful vineyards behind them!

Our annual picture up on the lookout - it was a PERFECT day!


Then, on Sunday we went to this beautiful park between sessions so I could practice taking pictures for my photography class. My assignment was contrast, and I wanted to get one of Cash and Chip together to contrast age/big and small!!! Which one do you think is best?


I like seeing Cash's feet peeping from under the bench!

I see you mom........and now i want OFF this bench! boo!

love my 2 boys!

Great Pictures!! I love your hair! Had no idea you were going red. I went red last fall and loved it. It's great for the time of year. I miss you. Can we please play this week before you go to Mexico?
