Temple, Hike, and a Broken Bike

We started off this week with a trip to the Mesa Temple.  We enjoyed walking around the grounds and exploring the visitors' center.

Big Hug!

Getting ready for Church.

Looking good!

Carter drinking a tall bottle of milk on his throne.  It's good to be King!

Carter loves the library.  They have a fun kid's area with a bunch of toys.  He is especially fond of the block box as you can see.  

After three weeks of waiting for parts, tools, time, and more tools, Craig was finally able to fix his bike this week.  It was a very Happy Day.

Daddy's best helper! "He couldn't have done it without me."

 Thunderbird Peak Hike
Amanda found a fun hike that is actually right off the freeway near Midwestern University.  We all went on a hike this weekend to check out Thunderbird peak.

Carter "Are we ready to go yet?"

"Carry my things Farmboy."  "As you wish"

Alicia: "Dad!  I told you to leave that baby pack at home!"

Carter's got his game face on.

Cute picture of Alicia walking with her daddy.  Notice the spire in the background.  That is the new Phoenix, AZ temple under construction.  This is going to be a great blessing to us since it is only 10 minutes away from our apartment.

Hiking is tiring.

"Why did you guys wake me up?"
