Happy Halloween from us! We are calling this year “Classic Halloween” because all of the kids went for some “classic” costumes! Black Cat Spider Witch We also had to document Sarah’s first time using pink curlers! I loved doing these as a kid and it was so fun to do for Sarah. She LOVED it! …
A Great Work
“Wherefore, be not weary in well-doing, for ye are laying the foundation of a great work. And out of small things proceedeth that which is great. Behold, the Lord requireth the heart and a willing mind.” Doctrine & Covenants 64:33 A couple weeks ago, Jacob, Sarah, and Benjamin were able to participate in our ward’s …
Little Haunts
I love autumn activities. Basically, I just love autumn (also, Jacob really wants us to call it autumn now because he thinks it sounds so much better than “fall” – haha!). I love the crisp weather. It is easily my favorite season. The week before Halloween, we went over to Salt Lake for some family …

Downtown Aquarium

Denver Museum of Nature & Science
Our last FULL day in Denver was BUSY! First stop was the Nature and Science Museum. Mark and I LOVED this place when we lived here and it was so much better with our kids! They were a little skeptical before but we stuck with it because we knew they would love it and THEY …
Denver Zoo
Sarah’s pose in this picture makes me chuckle every time I look at it! This day was wonderful. We left Granby in the morning and made the drive over to Denver. The weather couldn’t have been better. It was cool and the sun was out. We grabbed some lunch and had a picnic in the …
Rocky Mountain National Park
We woke up bright and early with the plans of spending the whole day in Rocky Mountain National Park. We were on the road by 8:00 and it was COLD. We bundled and layered with pretty much everything that we had and I had brought hand warmers as well (which proved to be a lifesaver!). …
