Vacation Recap

This is the very longest I have gone without blogging. I was going to blog our trip to Utah while it happened, but just couldn't. Am I the only one who goes on vacation and thinks--three weeks is so long. We have so much time to do everything we want to do. And then suddenly you are leaving in two days? There were several people I wanted to see (I was going to call you Tresa, sorry), but it just didn't happen. I don't think it helped that we ended up fighting sickness that took us out for like 5 days. The adults all shared a lovely 24 hour stomach bug, and then Carter got an ear infection, with a 105 fever!

But anyway, we are all better. We had fun. We even survived the plane ride. So here is a recap and a promise to get back to blogging.

The babies loved grandma's piano.


My fun mom had lots of "adventures" planned. Here is one to the dinosaur museum at Thanksgiving Point.


The Lehi city miniature parade. I just love this parade.


The babies loved getting to know Uncle Dave's dog. Tyler, not so much.


Another "adventure." This is the Place Heritage Park. Not only is this place educational, but it is a lot of fun too.

My kids have 3 living great grandparents, none of whom have met the twins. We were glad to be able to visit with Dan's grandma on this trip and let her meet the boys.


Our fourth of July picnic up the canyon. My mom was determined to get a picture of everyone. Here are my parent's 4 children and 10 grandchildren.


Happy 4th of July!

I'm glad you had such a great time! I'm surprised we didn't run into each other at some point; it looks like we did a lot of the same things - parade, picnic in canyon on the Fourth, dino museum.
It looks like the boys had a great time with grandma, grandpa and cousins. We'll try to get together next time around!
