"I looked out the window and what did I see?"

A view from our front window. 


A magnolia tree a little past it's prime. 

This is called a weeping cherry 

That's a whole lot of popcorn. 

A pink dogwood 

Reminds me of a snow fort. 

 Bumblebee heaven

You can almost smell them can't you?

Where's the beef?

Hmmmm, nothing here... 

...and nothing here... 

hmmmm, how come there's nothing to eat? 

Oh, the Elders are here, thats why.
Elder Kaahanui and Elder Hunt.

Daddy Daughter Date

 Becky and Elder Ashby take a fun trip to
Jersey to see a really big lady.

 And Evie stayed home to help grandma clean house.

A cool ride on a double decker boat. 

 The immigrant's view, very inspiring.

The hike up the base is filled with cool displays
of how she came to be and what she's made of.
This is the actual size of the face.

Inside the statue. The outside is copper,
about the thickness of 3 pennies, held together
by all these braces.

Now that's a close up.
We had a wonderful time.


New York in a day! April 14, 2011

 First stop Time Square
A Big Wow!!!

You could get lost in this concrete jungle. 

 Evie's taking time to smell the flowers.

 Battery Park. Can you see
 Lady Liberty in the background?

 On top of the world or at least the Empire State Building.

Evie found another happy place! 

 Can you name this famous place in New York?
E-mail us with your response.

This is truly the city that never sleeps
 but we're going home to get some.
