A dip in the DRY pool! No fins or snorkels needed!

What a GREAT Conference weekend! Our family was able to get together at Kitch and Angela's house as well as Jenny & Corby's house. Mike and his sweet girlfriend Casey were even able to come up and attend the Sunday afternoon session in person. A first for both of them!
Here is handsome little Hayden in his backyard enjoying a dip in the pool full of balls. (Don't need a swiming suit that way!) I was not able to get a good picture of him DIVING in, but he did it over and over. It was so funny! Finally as you will see below, Jaxon tried it and found it to be great fun.
It was a very special time to be together as a family and feast on the words of the new church presidency and other great leaders. Paul and I were sad to leave. Not only because we would miss our wonderful children and precious grand children, but we had to come back here to Star Valley where winter is still very much with us and theres LOTS of deep
SNOW, penetrating COLD and FROST! I know spring will come up here one of these days, but until then, the only spring we've found was in Jenny's back yard!

Little Cousins


Once upon a time I was THIS big. Jaxon gives Hayden a tender touch as they play in Jenny's back yard over Conference weekend.

Fun Conference weekend at Jenny & Corby's house!

YAY diving into a swimming pool full of little balls! What little boy wouldn't love to do that! Jaxon is sporting his new spring time buzz. It ended up a little shorter than mom and dad intended, but Jaxon doesn't mind a bit.

Jaxon's FIRST horse ride!


What a fun day that was. This was Jaxon's first ride on one of grandpa's horses. Of course you can't see him, but grandpa is standing right next to Jaxon behind the tan horse. This was taken Easter weekend. You can see that we still had considerable snow. The horses were very curious about this little featherweight cowboy, but Jaxon didn't seem to be concerned at all by their attention.
