Alpine Slide

We got to go up to Park City two weeks ago and ride the Alpine Slide as a family. We had to take turns going on the slide, because one of us had to stay down with Vivi, so it took double the time. Plus it was super crowded. We spent the good part of a day on the mountain. I took Will up and Shawn took Claire. Luckily it was a beautiful day and the kids loved the slide!

Claire ready to take off down the mountain!



As we were leaving I realized I hadn't taken any pictures of the changing leaves, so I made Shawn take a picture of us in front of this little tree. See the little bit of red in the background :)

Here's a sweet picture of Claire and Vivi holding hands!

Vivian's Blessing

Vivi is now two months old! I can't believe how fast she is growing up. She is smiling and cooing all of the time! We were able to bless her last Sunday at church! Shawn gave her a beautiful blessing! I'm so grateful for the priesthood and that Shawn is worthy to hold it! We are also grateful for our family that came to support Vivi! Here are some pictures of Vivi's blessing day!


Sweet Vivi in her dress!

Great Grandma Vivian (who Vivi is named after)


Another photo of Vivi in her dress. My mom and dad bought this beautiful dress for her and my mom had that tiny bracelet made with Vivian's name on it! So sweet and cute!


I couldn't resist buying these cute silver shoes for Vivi's blessing- aren't they fabulous :)

Witches Weekend

Last weekend we went to Gardner Village for their Witches Weekend to kick of Halloween! We went with my parents and sister. Gardner Village is so much fun by itself that with the witches we had a blast! Here are some pictures!
