Aerospace Museum Field Trip






On Wednesday Ashton and I went on a field trip to the Hill Air Force Base Aerospace Museum. Ashton was in heaven with all the airplanes. They got to make paper airplanes and fly them, and do all sorts of fun things.

Las Vegas Trip






This past weekend we drove to Las Vegas for a soccer tournament for Tayden. We made it a "vacation" and saw some of the Vegas sites such as "the strip" and walked around some of the hotels, etc. The kids loved the M&M World and the lions at MGM. One of the pictures looks like the lion is going to bite Tayden's head off! We had a great time, but I wish the weather would have been warmer! In one of the pictures, the boys are enjoying an "ice bath" to help their muscles recover from the games. Their feet are in a tub full of ice water and they had to sit there for 20 minutes. (It was optional, but each one of them wanted to show how tough they were.)

Vegas Cup






Tayden's team did great at this National tournament. We went in thinking we wouldn't win a game, but ended up winning two out of our three games but it wasn't enough to make it to the playoffs. The kids were pretty upset about that, but they should be proud of how great they did.

Las Vegas Temple





On Sunday we went to the Las Vegas temple and walked around the temple grounds. We also attended a ward in Las Vegas and it was good for the kids to see that the church is the same wherever you go. We went with three other families but Scott was the only man so we looked like a big polygamist family with Scott walking in with his four wives and a grundle of kids. It was funny!
