Utah trip!

During our trip to Utah we had the chance to visit the Beehive House, the Church History Museum, Austin's football game at Alta High School and the Lee Family Halloween Party...! We had a wonderful time and made many fun memories!!

Love McKay's face in this one!

The kids loved the tours and the fun Pioneer games they provided for children at the Church History Museum during Conference Weekend. We were there for at least a couple of hours and had a hard time pulling them away from all the activities when it was time to go! We had a fantastic tour guide through the museum who had some fascinating insight to share with us about our church history.  It was neat for Bria and Case since they are studying church history in seminary this year.

Conference Weekend

     Last month we had the opportunity to go to Utah to hear Grandpa speak in General Conference. It was a week filled with many family events. I love being in Salt Lake City for Conference there is a buzz in the air that I remember so well growing up. 
 Sunday morning we took the girls to "Music and the Spoken Word" before the first session of Conference. It was an amazing experience for them to listen to the choir live- absolutely beautiful! Afterwards we picked up the boys and headed back over to the Conference Center for the Sunday afternoon session. Grandpa did a great job, he spoke on "Courageous Parenting" the kids all loved seeing their grandpa up there!  Case and I enjoyed being able to take our four oldest into the Conference Center to see the Prophet and to be there for Grandpa's talk.  These are treasured memories and a wonderful experience they will always remember!
