Copper Mine Adventure

A week and an half ago we went to the Kennecott Copper Mine which is an open pit mine.

I found the terraces very interesting.

This truck is huge! It's wheels are like 25 feet tall and only last one year of use. The truck it's self is like three times the size of a semi. Oh how it made me want to play with Tonka trucks!

I love the colors of the rock face.

Bruce has moved to a new area, Denton, TX. He loves that it is a college town. Spencer has been dropped off for his one semester college experience at BYU - Provo. He is excited to go to classes and learn to feed himself. He seems to be taking care of himself just fine, Within an hour of being back in his apartment he had his router set up and was getting internet on his computer. The older girls have started school and are doing well. It was exhausting, but the Show choir and Ballroom performance on the first day went well for the senior. The Senior and Sophmore have survived 2 days so far. The 7th grader did very well adjusting to lockers and middle school. She didn't get lost, and it only took 10 tries at the end of the day to get her locker open! We walked the 5th grader to her class the first day and she thinks her teacher is fantastic! Still waiting for Kindergarten assignments so we will know who Holly's teacher is. She starts a week after everyone else. I am sort of in mourning after sending off the college boy. He also has finished both of his interviews and submitted his paperwork to be called on a mission . Excited to see where he will be called!
