Labor Day Ride
On Labor Day we took the kids for a ride up the mountain behind our house. It was Luke's first time to ride the four wheeler and of course he loved it! I forgot my camera...but next time I'll take pictures of the view, it's gorgeous....oh, and the wheather here has also been beautiful, I could stay outside all day! (notice we're wearing jackets! we went in the evening)

This weekend was stake confrence for all of Utah and Wasatch counties. It was a broadcast to all 135 Stakes at once! The speakers were Elder Jensen (70), President Uchdorf, Elder Boyd K. Packer, and President Monson's Daughter (sorry, forgot her name) It was pretty neat.

Our adult session Sat night was very good as well. The stake presidency spoke on the atonement and the president's talk was especially powerful. I worried all week how we would attend...having no babysitters, then we took Jeff's advice and took the kids with. When we went to go in the nursery another ward had girls watching kids and they volunteered to watch ours. What a blessing! Jorden was so sweet...he watched Luke most the time and let me take notes. I love how I feel after Stake Confrence...uplifted and blessed.
Jeff and Jenn and their girls came to the meeting with Neil and Michelle and us. Afterwards we ate in our house and Neil made yummy fresh peach shakes for us, which we ate on the front lawn. The girls had a blast playing dress up together. It's nice to still have family close by and see my brother's families more often.
