This is the Place Heritage Park


Here we are at 'This is the Place' Heritage Park in Salt Lake City. Our good friends Joe and Leslie took Charlie (and his family) for his birthday. The petting corral was a big hit.

Hi there!

Off to Church


Do you know how long it takes to get your hair just right? It's exhausting.

Checking out Jane's Birthday Cake




Laura made Jane's cake and put it in the fridge before the big event.

New Reality Show


We've been approached by a TV producer here who wants to do a 'Super-Nanny' meets 'Burke's Backyard' program.

Gardening


After some initial skepticism regarding dirt and grass etc, the children are now enjoying helping in the yard.

It's Official


We took Jane to the doctor and she ran some tests. Our suspicions were confirmed. Jane is a monkey.

Gracie at three and three quarters


Grace is enjoying the outdoor lifestyle and exploring our home, yard and the neighbourhood. She is constantly upbeat and willing to try new things.

Josie at four months


You'd think that after living in three continents Josie would have picked up a few languages by now.....

The 'Good Room'


Visitors are not allowed past this room.

Our Home in Draper, Utah, USA


This is our new home in Utah. Every national holiday that is associated with patriotism some young men in the neighbourhood put flag poles and flags in our yard (and everyone else's). They just appear in the morning, like mushrooms.
