The guys...the phone shows a pic of Uncle Tom! We missed him!
Late Summer fun
The kids have loved the blow up pool Grandpa and Grandma got them...
Oh yeah...and can you believe that another season of baseball started...
Quincy now plays for the Bombers. It's been a great team for him to continue to learn and become better with. So proud of these boys.
Ella LOVES to get dressed up for church.
See her baptism pic in about 6 more years...
Porter is still our master artist. The rain came about 10 minutes after we took this and washed it all away!
Trying a movie with all the kiddos!
We LOVE having visitors...
WARNING: PROOF THAT MOM IS GETTING OLD!!!
Played in a kickball tourney and tore a ligament in my finger.
Had it in a splint for 4 weeks.
Mom thinks she's losing her mind...

UTAH VALLEY CHILDREN'S TOUR 2014
Church History Tour
There are WAY too many pictures to post here. And they are not of the concerts! Most were in chapels where we were not filming!
This 16 day trip was amazing and we got to see most of the church history sites and heard amazing music all along the way.
Miles and Quincy are both singing for the choir this year. We were so lucky that Grandpa and Grandma Hansen stayed with Porter and Ella.
We started by getting to Mount Rushmore...
(along with a couple of bus problems/etc...)
We had concerts and LOTS of bus time as we made our way across the country.
Kirtland Temple. The kids got to sing in the temple. Choice experience.
Sacred Grove. Hope to have the whole family there next time.
The Spirit is so strong there and I hope the boys recognized that.
Hill Cummorah...
Nauvoo
Carthage Jail
(took this shot through the bullet hole in the door)
The Group at Carthage
Quincy Illinois
We had a great time! Loved the time to spend with just the older 2 kiddos.
We ended our adventure stopping in Denver for something exciting...
AND the kids at home were so well taken care of. We feel so blessed to have these 2 Grandparents in our lives. They took over as mom and dad and now they have a special bond with Porter and Ella that is different than before. We love them so much!!!
We face timed once and Ella loved it...but we had to abandon that idea because she had a hard time after that "visit".
These 2...so glad they will always have each other!!
Summer Ball
We watch and play a lot of baseball at our house during the summer.
Miles' Warriors team won the Utah's Perfect Game Championship this year!
Way to go Warriors! Fun group to watch play.
Quincy has loved the opportunity to play accelerated ball.
He loves to catch. He's crazy enough for it! :)
Ella is drug to A LOT of games! But she sure loves it when she can recognize the boys.
She especially loves when Miles is on deck!
There's nothing like watching your children play and excel at something that they love.
Take us out to the ball game...
all summer long!
Payson Temple coming along
We love going down to the Payson temple site and have a FHE about temples!
We are so excited to have a new "home" temple.
Ella is so excited she is putting her wrestling moves out there in front! :)
