Fun around town

 We have taken some beautiful morning/afternoon walks the last week.  You can see the effects of all of the rain we've had recently with rain puddles, greenery and flowers blooming!  So beautiful.  And one night we went out back and enjoyed roasting marshmallows for s'mores!  


We also enjoyed going to a birthday open house for one our Single Adult ward members #38!  Clarissa Humphries.  She's one of our favorites!







Zion Plein Air 2026

 We made a late start and almost didn't find parking but I'm so glad we did!  We loved seeing the art happening and enjoying the beautiful Fall weather. Then we hiked on down to the Grotto for a picnic lunch.  After that we took the shuttle to the end and walked the trail up to the narrows.  The Fall colors and Zion's cliffs were the best art of all!  What a beautiful day we had in the park!  





Christmas Airplane ride gift!

 Lance and Juge gave us a Christmas gift of an airplane ride with his pilot stepbrother Zach Sheffield.  It took some time for him to feel ready, but the last week of October we did the deed...and it was SO much fun!  It was a small plane, with 4 seats.  Paul sat up front with Zach and Lance and I were in the back.  Zach did a great job of giving us a smooth and so scenic flight!  We saw so much beautiful stuff  that we love with the up above perspective!  We saw the Coral Pink Sand Dunes, Gooseberry Mesa, the Snow Canyon Cinder cone area, the Zion area and more!  Thanks so much for this really fun adventure!

A new patio shed!

 We bought the makings of this shed a few months ago when it was too hot to build it.  Now it's much cooler and Bean and Paul and a little bit me, got it put together amid rainstorms from our El Nino weather.  It looks so nice!  Much better than the old rusty one that came with the house.  Thanks guys!  Another good thing about it is that we also cleaned it out and threw away junk in the process.
