flowers and children


This is Sasha and Sophie coloring eggs at the Grandparent's home Easter 2012.  With the help of Spencer and Shannen we all made some very creative eggs! (We just can't see them very well)

These next pictures were taken in Red Butte Gardens

About a month to 6 weeks before leaving for the MTC, we enjoyed spending  part of a day with Shannen and her girls, Sophie and Sasha. We also took two of Jared and Eliza's children, Naomi and Ella with us, We met Shannen at Red Butte Gardens by Utah State University in SLC, Ut. The beauty of these gardens is amazing! We thoroughly enjoyed watching the girls have a great time.  Part of the garden is gorgeous flowers, herbs and other things. They also have a very creative place for children to play and enjoy.


This pond had lots of gold fish in it and a place to purchase food for them.  The girls purchased some food for the fish and then found that the two mother ducks and the little ducklings would eat the food from their hands.  It was such an enjoyable day for all of us.

This place made me wonder what the Garden of Eden was like.
