Oquirrh Mountain Temple Open House

We attended the Oquirrh Mountain Temple Open House in southwest Salt Lake. The temple was beautiful and we really enjoyed our time there. Here are some of the pictures we took. I would have loved to take more, but it was so hot I felt lucky to get any at all.

Ogden Rodeo and Ice Cream

For Family Home Evening we attended the Ogden Days of 47 Rodeo...The kids weren't all that thrilled, but Annicha loved the Rodeo princesses and Joran and Maren loved the clown that made balloons...

Sierra's Birthday Party

We had to wait a couple weeks to have Sierra's birthday party because we were so busy, but I think it was worth the wait.
First they all went swimming at the Complex, then back for pizza. After pizza they watched a movie and made s'mores in the fire pit. It was a lot of fun!

Camping At Pineview

We planned a camping trip at Pineview up Ogden Canyon...I took everyone up early. Connor had soccer and Jeff was in a conference so we had an entire day to set up and play before they came up. We had a great time playing in the water...it was about 100 degrees so the water felt great. We played games and had great food...it was a wonderful break from everything!
