Pigs

It has been a while since I have blogged, SO much has happened. lets start with Pigs.

Some friends of ours talked us into raising pigs this year and showing them at county fair.

so we raised 3 pigs and then added a 4th that will go back to the local youth home.

It was a crazy experience, but well worth watching the kids work. I have a few pics to share

Youth Temple Trip

On Friday I went with the youth to Temple Square to see the lights, It was a fun group of kids.

Lights at Temple Square

For family home evening tonight we went to see the lights at Temple Square, It was a very nice night, not too cold and the lights are beautiful as always.

Friday December 14th State Gymnastics

Friday the 14th, we went to Douglas Wyoming for the State Gymnastics competition which Abby and Jessicsa both qualified for. It was a fun trip, They did pretty well especially considering that this was Abby's third Competition and Jessica's second. We got to stay with Bryan and Kristie Cropper while we were there .It was a very fun time. The trip back was interesting though, we were driving through some very strong 70mph winds.

Ginger Bread Houses

Our annual ginger bread house decorating, one of those family traditions I would never want to give up.
