Shaking Quakies 2014

Shaking quakies (shaking quaking aspen trees) is a yearly tradition my family has to go up the canyon on General Conference Sunday and shake aspen trees simply for the pleasure of watching the leaves fall.  Basically, it's a nice reason to go up the canyon and take a walk and have hot chocolate and donuts.

This year we made a change and went up American Fork Canyon to the Timpooneke Camp Ground.  This ended up being a great call because there was ample parking, less people, picnic tables and a fire pit!  We love Millcreek Canyon up in Salt Lake but it's just so small and getting so crowded.

Cute hat, huh?  That is from his "Aunt" Naty

We take a family photo about once a year.

Happy Autumn!!
