Cornbelly’s


We made it down to Thanksgiving Point this week.  
Kristy and I drove down together and met Darin and Ben after work.  
We had a GREAT time!  
They had some new things this year, including a giant slide that Lindsay LOVED!  

On to the pictures!

#4- Do the Dirty Dash

Another 30 before 30 accomplished!

THE DIRTY DASH!!

It was SO MUCH FUN!
I laughed so hard.  I really have the best family ever!

I ran the race with my awesome brother Rick, and my two fantastic cousins McCall and Blake.
They really are all SO fabulous to have run this with me!

I think we need to make this a family tradition,
and hopefully we can get more of the family to join in.

And a special thanks to our photographer Darin (who has committed to running next year).
And a special thanks to my mom for cheering, making our banner, and watching my kids!

On to the pictures!

McCall, Rick, me, and  Blake






Aren't those mountains BEAUTIFUL!?

Coming down the slide!





My mom made us this awesome poster.


I LOVE this photo!  Just wish those three guys weren't there.




Running through the awesome poster mom made!

One last awesome group shot.



And if you want to see what the dirty dash is like...check this out!

Brigham City Temple Open House

Today we were able to go to the Brigham City Temple open house.  It was beautiful!  
We had a little bit of a rough start (hence why everyone but Darin looks homeless), but we made it, and we were glad we went.



Our family in front of the temple.

A hallway.

The baptismal font.

The celestial room.

After we went through the temple my grandpa Welling gave us a little tour of Brigham City.


We saw some cool places, read some newspaper articles, heard some stories, and learned a lot of new things about our family.  For example, have you heard of Brigham City Peach Days?  Well, today I found out that my great-great grandparents were in charge of the FIRST Peach Days!


This restaurant, just blocks from the new temple is where my great grandpa grew up.  
The parking lot is where their garden was.

Another home of a great-great grandparent.



This is the chapel where my great grandpa was the bishop for 20 year!  Whoa!  That is long!

We ended the tour at the cemetery.







You can read  some of my favorite stories about my great grandparents, on my cousin Lori’s blog 

You really should go read it, Lori wrote it with her mother, my aunt DeAnna.
They are both excellent writers, 
and the stories are inspiring even if you're not related!


Then, we got some lunch at Madox!










And visited a little side of the road produce stand.  






Love those kids!
