Our fun adventures before school

The week before school started Ben and I decided to do some day trips and take advantage of all the wonderful things we are surrounded by. We went to snow canyon, and to zions. How amazing it was to be surrounded by such majestic rocks. Ben and I felt so little.
While we were doing this Ben brought up a good point, faith can move mountains. There are some huge mountains. Especially around here. That would be a lot of faith.
Kate loved it too. We saw some deer right out our car window at zions canyon and she kept pointing over to them.
Zions canyon has a big tunnel about a mile long you drive through. That was a pretty awesome experience.
I have loved spending all of this time with my beautiful family.
Ben started school last week, and he is doing pretty well. He tries to get all of it done so we can spend the weekend together. Ben and I are both currently looking for jobs. Hopefully one of us will find one soon. We think Ben might have a lead for a call center. We are hopeful for that anyway. This way I can continue being a stay at home mom. And I might try to take a few classes over the summer.
Kate will be 1 next week. I can't believe how quick this last year has gone by. I'm still trying to organize her birthday as far as a party and gifts, but I will post pictures and blog about it here soon.
Here are some pictures of our fun day trips.

The Deer Kate kept pointing at. 
I made Ben get out of the car so i could take a picture. This is at Zions Canyon. The sign says BIG BEND so he' covering the D lol. 
This is a rock at Snow Canyon that we all climbed. I got pretty nervous with my baby being up so high on this rock. I'm glad we did it, but wow that was a big rock!

Ben likes to climb. Snow Canyon
