This year we went to Goblin Valley with Janine, Aaron and Aiden. Evelyn's friend, Ian, also hitched a ride with us. It was colder than it usually is in the fall, but it was beautiful. The kids loved it and we hiked all the way across the valley and came out the other side. It was very fun. We played cops and robbers. Went swimming. Played laser tag. For the first time ever, we had to wait in line to get into the park. Usually people just park on the hill, but now they won't even let you in until there's a spot in the parking lot open. We chatted and waited. Then had lunch and fun. Sam drove us down there too. He's getting to be a good driver. I think he'll be ready for his birthday. I have some of the pictures here and I will post the ones off Jer's phone soon.
Today I had a neat discussion with Seth. He told me that today was rainy and windy and we are remembering Jesus' death so it was appropriate. We talked about Christ's friends falling asleep and about how a lot of the stories that we tell today were originally to teach about Jesus Christ. Narnia, Hercules, Thor. We talked about how God withdrew his presence and that Jesus Christ did the hardest thing that he'd ever done all on his own. I'm so blessed that Seth wanted to talk. It helped me keep in mind Christ for today. Thanks buddy. Thank you for following the Holy Ghost.
