Temple Lights

A few more pictures from before Christmas.

Brrr it was cold that night!


I love the clusters of floating ornaments.

This is the view from inside the Conference Center. We were very excited to get a private tour of the building.

Thanksgiving & Fall

I haven't been very good about updating this blog...however I am determined to do better. The first step is posting any old pictures of Mike and I. So here they are.

Sky through sunglasses in St. George

Mike's dad (Gary), Uncle Greg, him, me, brother (Derek) and Charlotte. We drove forEVER on a dirt road and finally found a mine (although we will never know if it is the one we set out looking for).

M & K at the mine

The sunset after our rock excursion. I practically jumped out of the moving Prius so I could snap this photo.

So many leaves!

Isn't Autumn pretty in Utah?

Catalina

On Monday Mike and I went with his friend, Fred, to Catalina. Fred's father-in-law owns the plane pictured and he was so generous to let us use it.

We took off from Chino at about 9:00, the morning haze is still lingering in the hills.

The view from above the Pacific was incredible.

Fred let Mike fly the whole time! Luckily he had been practicing right seat so he was able to land and everything.

I love how the sunlight reflecting on the wing shows all its details.

There's Avalon.
The water is sooo clear.



This is our dream...to one day own a plane and a huge hangar!

Drive to CA

Please enjoy the following photos from our California Christmas trip.

I had to sneak this one in even though it was before we left for Cali. I just love it.



Scraping snow off the car at 6:30 am.

We drove in a snow-storm for the first four hours!

Finally, sunrise and it stopped snowing!
Beautiful Nevada skies.

The mountains are reflecting in the snow melt outside of Vegas.

Snow

It finally snowed last week! Here is a picture I took of the snow on the ground in front of our apartment. That's about as white as it got, and it melted an hour later.

Such a perfect and happy day!
