~Tony's Grove~

The "BUFFALO" in the middle of the road on the way up to Tony's Grove.
Shelby waiting for Shawn to throw the ball! We have the hardest time keeping her out of the water!
Mckaylee, Pearce (Wyatt's friend) and Wyatt out in the freezing cold water!

Just another fun saturday with the Pickett's all you need is some water, food, and family and your good to go!!

~ Scout Group ~

Shawn and I are Bear Leaders in our ward. Each month we are to take our den on a field trip. Well, this was our first field trip as leaders and nothing like going to the Police station to make a little bit of a serious impression on them that we don't take or deal with anyone's crap. Right? We actually had a great time. You can see Wyatt in the back right hand corner he's one of the tallest boys. Officer Bird that gave our tour is actually our N.O.V.A. (DARE) officer for the school is a great man. He did a great job with the boys!!

~Wind Caves~

Our Beautiful Destination!
The Wind Caves are located up Logan Canyon. We decided to go up during morning and afternoon conferences Sunday. It's a 1.8 mile hike. You are not able to see the Wind Caves from the road but once your in about 1/2 mile this is what you see!

Shawn is standing at the bottom of the cave and I am at the top. There is a very steep decline to the bottom. The view was beautiful.
They are actually standing on top of the caves
This is standing farther away from the caves.
At the bottom of the trail just getting started!
It was a great family hike. We talked the whole way. Nothing like a conversation with two very curious 9 year olds. I love talking about stories from the scriptures. I learn so much from them each week. Mckaylee had actually brought up Elder Hollands talk from Saturday about how gratefull we all should be for what we have. Didn't even think she was listening. Now I know I was wrong! They are turning 10 next month and I feel like they are turning 12 on me! Scary! All in all it was a great day for family time!
