Over the River and to the Woods

Make sure you turn the music on by clicking on the megaphone right next to where it says slide (in the top left corner). Enjoy!




My older sister, Amy came to visit us this past weekend. On Saturday morning, we dropped the boys off at my friend Kathy's place (Thanks, Kathy!) and met Grandma Hallstrom at the Logan Temple. Grandma was just expecting me to come, so it was fun to surprise her with Sam and Amy there too. We had a nice time. Sam had to go to work for 2 hours and the rest of us just visited at home. We had an early dinner together after Sam got back from work. Later, I thought it would be nice if we all went on a walk in the mountains. As we were leaving, we saw a double rainbow. I looked in the direction of where we'd be walking and the sky looked nice and clear. Well, we were all walking on the trail and all of a sudden it starts raining cats and dogs. I took Tyler's stroller and started running as fast as I could. There was thunder, lightning, and everything. Sam put Brian up on his shoulders and started running as fast as he could. Amy was behind us just laughing. She thought it was great. Sam and I ended up trading kids. The kids weren't complaining. Brian just kept saying "wet" and "rain" and "noise" (thunder). By the time we made it back to our car, about 10 minutes later, the rain had stopped. We turned around and saw another double rainbow! We went home, soaking wet. I washed a load of our wet clothes and Sam gave the boys a bath. What an adventure!
