Lee’s Marketplace Opens! This is perhaps the biggest news since they paved the dirt roads in our neighborhood in 1966! No longer do we have to travel down the canyon or up to Morgan for that one critical item we ran out of or forgot to buy. Not only are we having wonderful October weather, but we can be grateful we finally have a legit grocery store in our midst! Hallelujah!! Click here for live footage.

Welcome to Ethan & Paris!  Ethan Bell (22) and Paris Campbell (22) are a hardworking, adventurous couple raising their daughter Saylor while navigating the demands of their busy lives. They have recently moved to the Highlands and live on Sierra Avenue. Ethan, a diesel mechanic, works in fleet maintenance, fixing everything from semi-trucks to construction equipment, while balancing a rigorous apprenticeship program. Raised in Roy, Utah, he’s always valued hard work and lives by the motto, "If you do a job, do it the best you can." Paris, who met Ethan at In-N-Out Burger, is an inspiring partner admired for her strength and resilience. She balances caring for Saylor with working at Lee’s Supermarket in Huntsville, where she decorates cakes and pastries. The fun-loving couple shares a passion for the outdoors and they embody a strong work ethic and commitment to their family. We are so glad to have you in the neighborhood!

 Spotlight on Copper & Finn.  Copper and Finn are Brad & Johanna Winn’s grand-dogs who come to Mountain Green to be babysat when their parents, Christian and Sydney, are out of town. They are known as “the boys.”  Old Copper, the beloved Cavalier King Charles Spaniel who has been a cherished part of Sydney’s life since childhood. This affectionate pup is always ready to cuddle in Sydney's lap, making him the perfect companion. With a nose for adventure, Copper loves to "hunt for squirrels" in the yard, and he’s always on the lookout for tasty treats. His treat obsession keeps him motivated, whether he's exploring or lounging at home. Young Finn, the playful pup, joined Sydney and Christian's family last year. It’s fun that Finn and Sydney have similar hair coloring. Finn just had his first birthday and is full of energy and curiosity. He thrives on sniffing in fields, always eager to discover new scents. Known for his mischievous side, Finn often keeps everyone on their toes—when the house gets too quiet, it’s a sure sign he’s up to something! His favorite pastime? A spirited game of tug of war that showcases his playful spirit. Together, Copper and Finn bring joy, love, and a bit of mischief to their family, creating endless memories in their adventures.
