Spring Break 2012

Well, I must say this is one of the most amazing and unique places I have ever seen! It's a place called "Goblin Valley"...and you can see why.:) We all loved it, and had a blast climbing and exploring(despite the cold temperatures and wind). Simply breathtaking.

One of the best parts was the cable tv at the hotel! This picture is just after smimming.;)

We spent a little time at a local park in Green River and had a picnic lunch.
Next, we headed to a dinosaur quary...here's a pic I got from the car window along the way.

After several hours of driving, we found out the quary was CLOSED that day.....but we saw this interesting little animal along the way.

So we headed home, taking the scenic route. We came upon this beautiful little creek, and stopped for a while.



We had a great time and made some wonderful memories!

Emma's Birthday! (a little late in posting)

With a baby on the way, things got a little crazy...but I didn't want to miss posting about one of my favorite girls! On November 19, 2011, Emma Jane Olson turned 10! Hard to believe.... For her birthday, she invited a few friends, an uncle, and her dad to go see the movie "Puss in Boots", then go to Boondocks. Sounds like the movie was a hit and they all had fun! Emma is really getting into fashion nowadays, so we gave her some shopping money. We all love her so much and appreciate her being such a great helper to her siblings. She's even started babysitting a little here and there! Thanks for being so great Emma!!!:)

Lincoln's Blessing

February 5, 2012.....a wonderful day! Our sweet little Lincoln was blessed by his daddy through the power of the priesthood. I am always amazed at Heavenly Father's love for each of His children.:) We were lucky to have many family members attend his blessing and spend some time with us over the weekend. We're so glad you're here Lincoln, and we love you!!

Special time with grandma and grandpa Allen

I was so grateful to have my parents here for about a week soon after Lincoln was born. We had a lot of fun with them and they were soooo helpful! Thanks Mom and Dad!

My mom usually gives my newborns their first baths....she came a little later this time, so this is about his third.;) I love the tradition anyway!

Lincoln 3 weeks

I'm lovin' the hats! :) My sister, Amber, made him the cutest owl hat...so impressive! And my sister-in-law had this cute monkey hat made for him. I did update my photo blog in case you want to check it out.:) www.countyourblessingsphotography.blogspot.com

So here is our precious new addition! We are all completely IN LOVE with this little guy!! I feel so honored and blessed that he was sent to our home. Here's a sample of his first photo shoot!:)
