February Fun!

 February was a full month, which is the only way, in my opinion to get through the winter blah feeling. 

UVU sponsored a Solider Hollow Tubing. We didn't stop once for the full 2 hours and the kids were in heaven!

Riding up!

 She didn't move much in that 2 hours either, she was pretty cold at the end, but my tough little girl wouldn't stop the fun for it!

We decided to escape the cold and head south! We stopped in the Grand Canyon on our way to Arizona to visit Andrew's sister and family! 

We spotted this gem at the Grand Canyon. It made me feel like our Angel boy was with us, as he should be on our family vacation. 

 Spectacular. Heavenly Father's creations are exquisite.

We made it to AZ and enjoyed nearly 90 degree weather!!!

We were there in time for the last 2 days of the Gilbert Temple open house. It is such an amazing building and we definitely felt the spirit there! I really loved taking Jack and Emma through so they could get a personal idea of what Mom and Dad do every time we go. I loved hearing them tell us of how they felt the spirit too. 

Cute Cousins!

 It was valentines day and I love being with my valentine! He surprised me with this amazing gift. I miss Sam so much but, love the way we keep him alive in our home, and remember his memory while striving to be with him again. 

 Lucky us, Andrew's folks drove down and spent time with us there too. It was an AWESOME trip. I really can't wait to go back! Maybe when it's cold here again…

This happened every night we were there. Surrounded by Grandpa and Grandma Stone reading. Love the memories we made!

Enjoy.
