Utah visit

I get the great opportunity to visit my brother, Jake and his wife, Kathy for a week. Here are some pics of my adventures with them and their three daughters.


Brooke, Skye and Sunny loved playing on the playset (or their "fort" as it was fashioned with lots of blankets!) after church on Sunday. (l-r Brooke, Skye and Sunny)


Since the trampoline is down for the winter I showed the girls some of my old tricks. Here's Brooke, more to come...!!!

Here they are catching Sunny in a blanket. Seconds earlier they were threatening to 'eat' her legs. Now she trusts them with her life. Ahhh, sisters!

Skye and Brooke. Beautiful. And great posers too!


Sunny isn't as graceful in her poses, but still enthusiastic!

The girls like to wear this chef hat and apron their Grandma Meyers made for them. Their speciality - ants on a log!
Jake owns a painting business. He wanted his office to be "happy." What do you think - would this room make you happy? What about the coordinating bed linens?
More chef-ness from Skye and Sunny. Knives are essential not only for peanut butter application, but also for licking and scraping the salt off of pretzel sticks.

Jakey brought home a snowboard. Brooke is taking skiing lessons from her Granma Cheryl, but she knew immediately this was for her!

Sisters are important when you need to get up on a board.
Without their help, this is what you often see!

Look at that smile. Any doubt what she will be doing after ski lessons?

More Sunday afternoon fun. Walking the bars with Sunny.

Dad (Jake) even tried it. He made it completely around the first time. Way to go Dad!


Sunny-side-down smile.


Look Mom - No hands!! Skye.

Whilst Dad and Brooke kicked some goals Sunny worked in the garden. "Digging up treasure from the sea."



Afterwards we all ate some yummy fruit, dipped in chocolate! Sunny.
