A Trip to Remember

We made it to Utah and what a great trip we had! Trevor could only get 1 week off and I wanted more time there with the kids so we left a week earlier and Trev met up with us. It was great to see so many family members and good friends.

Here is a pic of my two dear friends Tiffany and Angie. So fun to sit down with them and visit and our kids were thrilled to play together! As an added bonus I finally talked Tiffany (still working on Angie) to starting her family blog so now I can keep up with her cute family better. YAY

I feel so blessed to have such amazing women in my life.

We enjoyed a yummy lunch at the Olive Garden with a few aunts and a cousin which was fun and I also got to spend a morning at the park for West Bountiful 10th ward's "storytime" and catch up with some great friends and neighbors. So fun to see them and all the sweet new babies. Love you guys!

There are just too many things to write about...

We were so blessed to be able to attend my families annual trip to Bear Lake. It was the first time in many years (if ever) that all of us were there. We had a blast swimming, wave running, playing the wii, golfing, hot tubing, eating, and playing card/board games late into the night. Hallie and Megan were in heaven with so many cousins to play with.

I just love these people!

Melissa and Jeff (aka. Howie) planned a fun surprise for all of the kids and each grandchild got to play "Deal or No Deal" with the chance to win up to $20.00!!! Makenna was the grand prize winner with $20 but Hallie and Megan (and the rest of the kids) didn't come out empty handed. Hallie won $8 and Megan $8.50. It was a lot of fun. Thanks Melissa and Jeff, hope we didn't put too big of a dent in your wallet. ;)



Lot's of fun in the sun at Bear Lake then we were off to Trev's parents home. Trev took the girls up to Causey for the "Cousins Campout" (sorry, he forgot to take pics) and we enjoyed visiting with family and attending a new nephew's baby blessing.

Kaye made a fun little hideout for the kids in the old hot tub and even Julie climbed in and read stories to the girls. They love their aunt Julie, she is the best storyteller around. We also got to attend our old ward... so many good people.

My favorite part about the trip was just the little moments of visiting and enjoying being close to people we have missed.

Unfortunately we spent the last 2 days with the stomach flu so we didn't get to spend time with some of our dear friends which totally stunk but there is always our next trip.

I just want to thank everyone who housed us and fed us and spent time talking to us and letting us be a part of your lives even though we live way out in Kentucky. It was a memorable trip and we are just so thankful.
