Magical Temple Square

On Monday, DeRae, Matt, Lukas and I went up to Salt Lake to look at the lights at Temple Square. Here is documentation:

"Wow! Look at those killer icicles!!"

"Killer icicles?! I worship killer icicles!"

This is the pretty Little Mermaid fountain. I took the picture and thought it was magnificent and wonderful...but it came out masterful...go figure

The magical floating nativity with the magical floating candles

Look at all those lights! It's amazing!!

Lukas and I...one of these things is not like the other...

We made Matt frolic through the trees...well I suggested it, and he was all over it.

Porcine Pals

My favorite part of our Best Friends Animal Sanctuary stay was working with the potbellied pigs. Matt and I had a lot of fun and learned a lot about these unique pets. Did you know they are smarter than dogs? And cleaner too! They designate one area of their area as the "bathroom", whereas with dogs...well, that's not always the case.

We started out on a tour of the pig pens, and then worked on getting dinner ready. We chopped lettuce, added food pellets and vegetables. Than we took Sprocket on a walk. He was a cute little pig. He was young, so he still had a few good years of growing. We than went around and gave all the pigs a snack--Popcorn! The pigs loved it.

We then took Naniue on a walk. Naniue means beautiful in Hawaiian. She was a lot of fun. She kept up with us, thanks to the Shredded Wheat.

The Walking of the Pigs

Little Hollywood

Who knew that Kanab, a southern Utah town, was once known as "Little Hollywood"? Kanab was the place to film western movies cuz of all the landscape. The big red rock formations are stunning! I loved it! These pictures don't do it justice. The city's website has better pictures.




But with Kanab's place in cinema history, they have to have a way to commemorate it, right? You know it!! My cousin Matt and I had a lot of fun looking at the different sets...as our pictures will tell you.

We started out by breaking into a house where the Rat Pack filmed some western. We sat on the bed, but it was uncomfortably wet...

Well the sheriff caught us in the Rat Pack house, and took us to the big house...the clink...jail that is. Luckily we made some new friends.

But justice was swift, and I was tried and hung, and faked my death.

Why fake my death? To get Matt out of jail of course!!
