Snapshot Expressions

So, that Monday before heading home we decided to to all of the kids out for a picnic lunch at the Garden of the gods. We all had a brilliant time, eating, driving, getting "lost" and just enjoying God's wonder all around us! Reed went looking...um...rather interesting! It seems he takes after his dad with the hat! =) Me and the back crew! =) They look like they're having a grand time! Abby looking cute and Grace.....scary! =D These two are so much fun to watch.... So, after having to turn around who knows how many times, we came to this sign and just had to snap a picture of it!! A stop at Wal -Mart! Then we tried to get the younger kids all together smiling....but they all seemed to be doing something silly!! Jess and I!!! BFF ! <3 Peyton is such a lovely young lady! This is a fun rock to play around with!! William and Faith holding the rock up!! The whole group!! Jess kept trying to get everyone in this one....but some people are just too tall!! *laughs* Take 2...

"Let your memories grow stronger and stronger Until they're before your eyes You'll come back When they call you No need to say goodbye" Although, goodbyes happened to be said this time round until we see them again. Parting is such sweet sorrow indeed! But, I'm looking forward to my sister and Lilyana coming out for a visit very soon!! So, we left them starting back towards home saying goodbye to Sunny California! Even if it did rain/snow most of our time there! Below the Tadris leads us onwards towards Salt Lake City, Utah! Passing through snowy mountains before crossing the California State line..... We stopped at a rest area a bit after leaving California Memories!! Sweet memories..... Driving through the evening trying to get to our destination.....lovely view from my rear-view mirror! The sky was incredibly gorgeous!! The next morning found us at my Great Grandfather's place! He is doing so well, and it was simply encouraging to talk to him and see him...
