The Gang's all here!

Easter Weekend always brings a flood of kids and grandkids to our house in southern Utah. They enjoy hanging out at the St. George Art Festival and soaking up the beautiful desert sunshine. The weather cooperated nicely and we got in a lot of outdoor time.



Before the Festival started I took my son Jon and his kids on a hike in the desert behind our home. They found lots to do.

Max struck his own desert trail. Even at age 3 he's a big BYU fan like his dad and brother.

Travis Alyssa and Hannah play in the "secret rock caves."

Jennie, Jason, Emma, Ellie and Baby Josh at the art festival. Two-year old Ellie gave us a scare when she decided to go exploring by herself. Everyone pitched in looking and she turned up by the fountain in the town square.
