I have driven past the Bonneville Salt Flats so many times over the past 9 years. I have photographed here a couple of times, during the summer when the water is all dried up. It is a pretty amazing place. I've always loved the beauty of the perfect reflection of the small jagged mountains on the water. A couple of weeks ago we were headed out to Wendover and decided to stop and play here at the flats. The kids loved running around and trying to skip rocks like their dad. These are some of my favorite images from the flats. Enjoy.
Last week the kids wanted to make Valentines Day Cookies "for their friends". (They ate all of them but a few that we took to Trevor's family and one for each of their teachers). Basically I made the cookies and frosted them and the boys dumped sprinkles all over them. :) Happy Valentines.
In June we decided to go fishing with Mike's parents and his niece, Maren, up at the Fish Hatchery in Ogden. I wasn't sure how the boys would react to catching a fish... sometimes they are pretty scared of ANY animal, no matter the size. It was hilarious to watch them with their Grandpa Simpson. Raleigh would take off running whenever he caught a fish. Crew, on the other hand, would stand and hold his fish up with pride, and then jump and get nervous when the fish would move around on the hook. It was a really fun day, and although they didn't learn much about REAL fishing, we caught a whole bunch of fish and had a blast.
