Lost and Found

Last Sunday someone turned in my lost GPS to the police station, and they called our house.  It gave the person who answered the phone a heart attack when they heard, "This is officer Green from the police dept." It had fallen out of my jogging stroller in Santaquin Canyon. What a nice person there is out there somewhere.  So glad my name was written on it.  The crazy thing is it still works!


Also my camera memory card was lost.  It fell into my box of not-frequently used linens.) But now it's found.  Hooray!  Here are some of the items that were stuck on my camera:

Glen cut down the tree in Scott's parents' yard:


Bowling on our anniversary:




After visiting the BYU anthropology museum I decided to look for the one standing Fremont Indian pueblo (1000 years old) in Utah county.  BYU recently excavated it and had artifacts in museum.  It's about 10 miles from our house.  I didn't get a visual on it but I think it's near the trees in the middle of the picture.  This is a mile or two from the Jerusalem set where the church is filming new testament videos of the Savior's life.  
I also liked the corralled tumble weeds.

Mt. Nebo in the back.

Alphabet Apps are great

Showing off the drawing skills

Fishing at Burraston Ponds.  Caught lots of sunshine and one fish. 


Caught 2 "fish"

Just before tripping in the mud.

Rowing the boat.




 We had a fun visit from Scott's sister Emily and her family.  Jed is growing up.  They drove all the way from Georgia.  Celeste and Jed had fun together.


I'm growing out C.'s bangs for fun.  The other Sunday went to look for her in primary and didn't recognize her for a few seconds.  The same thing happened to Scott the next week when he went to get her from Primary.




Pinata Party Reunion Preparations  

 I eat dinosaurs for breakfast! 

Payson Canyon yesterday for lunch. Soon it will be spring!






 We took a break from pinata treat shopping to go to a park.  Can anyone name this park?

4WD Fossil Adventure

Adventurers Bethany, Katrina, Jackson, Celeste and Annie showing off their mud.  
I downloaded all of these pictures from Katrina, thanks Katrina!

The Forest Service road that Katrina handled like a pro. 
This is where we parked and turned around, because it was finally wide enough.

These really are wild turkeys up in the hills in a 
cattle corral that they could easily get in and out of.

Looking South.

Nice muddy/snowy hike up the hillside where we found 
our fossils.  A lot of it was led by Celeste.  
If there are rocks or a steep hill to climb, she races up it.
These 3 year olds showed off their climbing skills.

Annie relaxing in the back of the jeep with our gear and fossils.

Katrina found this part (star) of a crinoid sea creature 
in the Jurassic aged rocks we were hiking in.

Antelope Island

Flying!
(Actually jumping and throwing wet sand at the same time)

Resting at the top of the mountain we hiked to.  
3 year olds can hike forever when they have a buddy to entertain them.

Playing in the sand.

View to the West.

Bison.

Climbing the rocks. (Tintic Quartzite Conglomerate)

Walking out to the Great Salt Lake.  
Scott didn't get to come because he had to 
work with 3 different clients that day.  
I missed him all day long.

Annie and her mommy

View from the top.  We heard coyotes howling down in the valley.  So eerie.
