Washington DC

At the US Capitol Building reflecting pool



Washington DC Temple - got caught in a downpour getting here.

Tomb of the Unknown Soldier - very quiet and solomn. They have a changing of the guard ceremony every 30 minutes.




Arlington Cemetery





Mt. Vernon - George Washington's home - overlooks the Potomac River.

Viva Las Vegas

We took a little trip to Las Vegas last weekend for the Best of the West Lacrosse tournament. Taylor was playing with the Bingham girls JV team and Matt for the Bingham 8th grade boys. We stayed at Grammy and Wolfgang's house in Hurricane Thursday night - then they joined us in Las Vegas.

We stopped at Hoover Dam on Friday morning to take in the sites. The new bridge above the dam was amazing.

You can walk out across the bridge for a great view of the Dam and Lake Mead.


A picture of the dam that you used to be able to get only from a helicopter can now be taken from the bridge.

Taylor and Matt each played in four games Friday and Saturday. Here Taylor takes the ball in close to the goal for a shot.

Tay catching and ready to shoot.


Matt takes the ball behind the goal to try and sneak in a shot.

Matt gets whacked in the mid-section while trying to control the ball.

Nicky ready to get in the game....


There were a lot of people there supporting Bingham teams. There were 5 boys teams and 2 girls teams that came from Bingham. Taylor's team won two games and lost two. Matt's team won one and lost three. Both of them were able to score goals for their team. The weather was great - sunny and 70 degrees.

Wanted: Two Front Teeth

A few days after Christmas, Nick lost the second of his two front teeth. He has now lost a total of 5 teeth. He couldn't quite sing the song "All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth" - but it was pretty close.
