Raking leaves
At a pet adoption event (We just needed to get out of the house!)

The girls got candy and other treats, and they got their faces painted.

This video is kind of long and boring, but I thought William was pretty cute. You can occasionally see Liz in the background. She is wearing a mostly pink leotard and black shorts:

Pittsburgh Airport with Grandpa

Grandpa Baker was so nice and drove us to the Pittsburgh Airport and saw us off. It was great to spend those six-plus hours with him.







Palmyra Temple



Hill Cumorah


The girls decided to have a snow ball fight. If you look closely, you can see that Owen is not happy about it. (And you'll also notice that these pictures are taken from inside the warm car!)


Book of Mormon Publication Site

The girls were really excited about the scavenger hunt.







Alvin Smith's Grave


Four Corners Churches



Sacred Grove





Smith Farm





Can you spot the temple?
One of the places where the golden plates were hidden. Sitting on the original bricks!

Random Pics at Grandma and Grandpa's House

The girls had fun running around with friends. This one was taken after Sunday dinner. 
Lucky us, there was plenty of snow. The girls were excited!
The girls had fun making fairy houses, thanks to Grandma Heidi.
We got to hang out with Sarah's Uncle Seth and family for a couple of days. The girls loved playing with eight-year-old Pip!
Owen loves Grandpa!
Saying good-bye to Grandma Heidi this morning.

Aunt Sarah's Harry Potter Birthday Party

The was a sorting ceremony. Inside the cupcakes were M&Ms colored to match the different houses: Gryffindor, Slytherin, Hufflepuff, and Ravenclaw.
There was a scavenger hunt, and everyone got a unique wand.
There were all kinds of sweets, including chocolate frogs--complete with collectible wizard cards. 
There were even Bertie Bott's Every Flavored Beans.
I think it's safe to say that Sarah had a great 26th birthday. :)
