We have a family tradition - when you turn 8 you get to go to Salt Lake City and go to General Conference (with Dad for now). General Conference is a church conference held twice a year (1st Sunday in April and October). Our prophet plus many other leaders speak to us at this time. (It's on television for those of us who don't go down to SLC.)
Since Nicholas turned 8 last year (right after General Conference was held) he had to wait till this year (April 3rd) to go. After conference they hit the slopes of Alta! They had a WONDERFUL time skiing! (We would never go to Conference in October; there may not be enough snow to go skiing!) Thanks for waiting NICK!
As for Christopher and Emma and I - well, we had fun going to Chuck-E-Cheese! Christopher also had a soccer game in there! Chris enjoys soccer and a few weeks back scored a goal from 1/2 field! The ball sailed up and over the other team and came down right in front of the goal and rolled in!! It was amazing!!! Coach was amazed!!! We know Christopher has some GREAT LEG POWER, but didn't know he could do that! Now he's faithfully practicing in the back yard - full on power house kicks! Watch out!

Chris looks so tall!!! How did that happen? Your boys are lucky that the older ones get to go, too! We only take the one that just turned 12. I would love to stick skiing in there, too!
That is a very cool family tradition.
Look at those good lookin' kids! It's fun to see them growing up! Where does the time go?
Those are some crazy candles!
