St. George 2010

The family took a trip to St. George the first week of January to celebrate Haley's 5th birthday. It was awesome! Everybody made it down at some point except David. :( But we did some great hikes, saw several Church history sites, attended the temple, and generally enjoyed lots of "down time" just hanging out. I've posted some pictures below.






Haley's favorite stuffed animal, Brownie, comes
EVERYWHERE with her. Here he's enjoying the view
from some petroglyph-covered cliffs on a hike. Classic!

Family Pictures, aka Wheeler Farm Part II

We had family pictures taken a couple months ago, and I thought it was about time to share! The location was Wheeler Farm in Salt Lake. My sister Mary's friend Heidi Lynn was our photographer, and she did a great job! Check out her work at http://heidilynnphotography.blogspot.com/. Enjoy!

Wheeler Farm

The Utah Supreme Court summer party was tonight at Wheeler Farm. Families were invited, and since I don't have one of my own, I borrowed Mary's. :) All the Hoffmann's came. Although we were denied a tractor-pulled cart ride by an officious farm worker who "couldn't possibly give one more ride because others on the farm are already milking the cows!" and "Oh, you don't have tokens? . . . (superior and knowing chuckle) . . . well, you couldn't have had a ride anyway!", we did milk cows, eat food, and see lots of chickens, roosters, pigs, goats, horses, ducks, geese and a ladybug. Good times had by all. Check out the pics! (Oops, sorry Scott and Parker, I guess you didn't make the team! It was unintentional....)

Haley and Erin Dressing Up

A little while ago my niece Haley and I decided to play dress-up. In addition to looking fabulous (as you can tell from the photos), we also decided to debut our incredible singing and dancing skills. The video below is particularly funny. I hope you enjoy! Erin
