Cinderella!

My sister has season tickets to Gammage and her mother-in-law offered her tickets so Adell could bring Maura to the play! It was so fun to go together!  It was a late night, but oh so wonderful!

Maura was a little skeptical about the show before we went, (she's not a big fan of Disney Princesses anymore) but when I explained exactly what it would be like she was more optimistic.  Afterwards, her response was, "I loved it!!"

 My sister Katie and her daughter (who was so excited that she couldn't stand still), Adell.





Hoover Dam

We paused on the way home to view the dam from the bridge.  Really awesome!

Trivia question for you...What was the Hoover Dam originally called? and why was it a misnomer?

(Maura did an excellent job as a photographer!)





Snowbird!

The snow wasn't the best, but we had a great time!


My two awesome men!  Dale is such a daredevil!  I wasn't feeling up to a big challenge, but Dallin hung in with him once on some really scary slopes!...Next time though, I'm going to be more aggressive!


Oh my heart! These two are just so cute!



One of the really cool lifts took us through a tunnel to the back side of the mountain! They had pictures and stories of the resort that were so cool!
Sadly, my photography skills were not awesome...

Dallin and I had some good one-on-one time.  Love this kid! 













We had such a great time hanging out at my sister's house.  She is such a great hostess and amazing cook... I gained like 10 lbs.   The cheescake was to die for!!

Maura loved having Bella to play with!


I don't get to see my little brother very often. So glad he could spend a day with us on the mountain!  My kids sure do love their Uncle David!  We really had a great time together!
These cousins are the cutest! They could be triplets...or at least siblings!  Dallin was super excited to FINALLY be the tallest one! (I think his hair put him over the edge...)

Spring Break in SLC

We took a few days to go to SLC and spend some time with my sister, Jennifer and her family.  We had some time to visit Temple square while we were there, go to the temple, eat at a great Indian restaurant and do some skiing!  It was a short trip, but oh, so much fun!
It was such a great experience to go to the temple with Dale.  So beautiful.  What an amazing place.  In the visitor center they have a model that shows the inside and computer screens that tell about different rooms and the building of it. Almost unbelievable how much work and detail went into building and designing it.
I love that the first thing on his "to do" list while in SLC is to go to the temple!  


What a fun group!

Conference center

We could have spent days exploring the history of the area...hopefully next time we can do more!
