Red Rock....

(there is a waterfall in the background but some kinda poltergeist made it invisible in this shot! Weird.)

Went to Red Rock Monday and had a blast. We love going out there and exploring. I need to remind myself occasionally that "there is beauty all around", even in Vegas.

Great imaginations in these two.

They had a blast!

Love hangin' out with Uncle Mark and Carli.

Trevor wanted his picture taken at every corner....always acting like monkey!

Watch out for that tree!!
Carli needs to be done with this pregnancy.

She's just a "little dingy"

Taylor was very concerned about getting there on time. She kept on telling us "Come ON! We're gonna be LATE"! (imagine the influx in her voice as she said it)

Oops! Wrong way! But we made it down.

The day wasn't short on adventure. Trenton decided to hide in awkward crevices. Yeah.......not a good idea! He got really stuck for about 6-7 minutes. He had his leg in some weird position and he wasn't budging.

Say Cheese!

"Mom, take a picture!!!!"

Always posing. Lots of fun.

Al - le - lu - ia !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It has happened. Taylor is finally potty trained!! The same day she professed what kind of "person" she was, she came to me that night and said, "I want to potty train". I said "What? You want to potty train and wear underwear?" She said "Yeah" So the next day we tried it. No accidents, no #2's though either, and I still had to tell her when to go. Today we were out of the house from 7:45 til 1:00 and everywhere we went she told me when she had to go, and she went. And when we got home she came to me 3 times saying she needed to go (#2), but to no avail. The 4th time she tried she announced from the bathroom, to everyone, including my Mia Maids, "I did it! I did it!" Finally, she can do it all, and without my probing. It is a heavenly day!

For the Birds............

Potty training is for the birds. Girls are supposed to be the easiest, but NO, not Taylor! She goes into the other room, lies down, and poops in her diaper! Apparently she knows she has to go, and that I get upset with her still doing it in her diaper, so she left the room. What? She couldn't just go to the toilet instead?!!!! I asked her why she won't us the bathroom? She replied "I'm just a poopin' person and a peein' person. I'm am."

GROSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Brian Head Weekend...........

Spent time with great friends and family this weekend!!

Shannon and Zoey

Trevor throwing snowballs at Wiley..........not much of the snowball went forward!

Trevor was a mad man in the snow.

Feeding the horses was the hit of the morning!

Wiley and Trevor

It was beautiful up there.

The boys were a little lazy!!! But Amanda and Ella sure had fun!!..........

....until they crashed, hence, the worried look.

Cason thought he'd be fancy and jump into a 10ft. pile of snow...................He got stuck!!

Trenton kept climbing random pile of snow and riding down. Him and Chris called it Man Vs. Wild, Trenton won!

Of course, it had to happen! We got stuck. Chris dug the snow out and Eddie pulled us up and out! Thanks!!!

The kids didn't mind being stuck. They dug tunnels, and Taylor just walked around looking cute!!!!!!

What a blast!

I'll get a couple of Cason and Eddie boarding down the hill later.
