More visitors!

Landon decided that he wanted to do his hair. He was quiet for a little too long. He started screaming when the hair gel started to run into his eyes. Kaylee's face reflects my own. 

 My parents came to visit this month. I thought I got more pictures.... apparently not. I will have to get more from my parents. We went to the Fox Air Museum and got to see a lot of planes and sit in one. 

Apollo Park- "Bumpa" is such a good sport! 




We went to the Bill Hart museum again. Beautiful weather in Newhall! 

We didn't do as much this time since it was General Conference weekend. We enjoyed every minute of the time we had anyway! Thanks for coming to visit! We miss you already! 

Visit to Arizona

At the end of February, we went to visit my Grandma. She spends the winter in Beaver Dam, AZ- five hours away. We made a trip up to visit her on her birthday. 
Valley of Fire








Mouse's Water Tank- an Indian renegade 




The kids had so much fun. I'm afraid they had a little too much energy at times... 

Happy travelers! Despite the crazy Vegas stretch. 

We visited the Mormon Massacre site. 



The only snow the kids got to play in this winter. They were thrilled! 
We went to dinner at a Mexican Restaurant and then came back for cake and ice cream. Landon was so excited to make her a chocolate cake. 
Thanks for letting us come and visit you, Grandma! We had fun. See you in Idaho! 

Visitors... wow I'm slow.

Wayne's parents came to visit in February. We had lots of fun! 
We went to the Bill Hart Museum. They have a cool petting zoo. We are not exactly sure the gender of the cow... so weird. 

It snowed while they were here- just for them!


L.A. Zoo again! We love the zoo! 





Griffith Park Train Museum

First ride on a train for the kiddos. They loved it! 



I don't know how many stories they read... The kids love books! 
 Thanks for coming to visit us, Grant & Cheryl/ Mom & Dad! We miss you already!

Easter Fun...

 This month has been an interesting one. Wayne has been applying for different jobs and waiting on what the sequestration has to throw at us. And.... we are still waiting :-)


We went to Placerita Canyon on Saturday.... a little hiking and Easter egg hunting. 


We went on a random drive to Topanga. It is an interesting place... supposedly celebrities have getaways. We saw a lot of fancy cars, but a lot of weird buildings and art. 

It was a nice change to see green mountains. 




Looking down into San Fernando Valley.

Weekend Fun

This month has been an interesting one. Lots going on for our family in Idaho. It's hard not being able to help them at this time of moving/changes. Send those good vibes our way.... The weather has turned hot. It got up to 87 degrees. We have tried to stay busy and upbeat!
The weather has been nice so the kids have been able to play on our 8x5 foot patio. 

We went to Devil's Punchbowl in hopes of finding water. No luck... we heard some, we just couldn't see it. 

One thing that keeps Landon hiking is chasing all the lizards. 

Hard hats advised. 

She tried to pick up every stick on the trail. 


 Another day at the temple and the zoo! I sure miss having the temple close. It takes a little more effort to head to L.A. 
Landon's favorite animal is the turtle.
