Utah Part II

Part II of our Utah trip. 

I really have no idea how many parts there will be, I am just going with the flow.

Anyway, the next part of our Utah trip is - once again - a photo overload.  But sometimes pictures are better than words, right??

Part II has included...


Swimming with cousins.


Getting in daddy time.


Being a super cute Little Sister.


Jumping on the tramp (yes..in swimsuits, it was part of the "swimming").


Fireworks (they tried to be brave...they only lasted a few minutes).


Addison being grumpy (she may be sick...we're still not sure) while Brielle and Claire try to be happy.


Claire being cheesy.


Brielle looking WAY too grown up.


Getting a half grin out of Addison (FINALLY after 4 days of screaming)


More attempts at sibling photos.


Making corn on the cob.


And plotting against their mother while daddy is away.


We sure miss Marty like crazy...even though it hasn't been all that long.  But I think it's safe to say that no matter how long you are away from your best friend (and daddy), it's never ideal or easy.

Good thing we've got some more partying planned to keep us busy for the next couple weeks!!

WOO HOO!

Utah Trip...thus far

Glad to know I have so many faithful followers who were distraught over the thought of me being absent from my blog for a while.

Well, lucky for you all - I have taken my parents computer hostage and decided to do a quick picture post about our trip thus far.


The drive went surprisingly well.
(Especially if you just look at the pictures of the kids from the first hour.)






There has been a reunion and a lot of reuniting.





A little falling in a creek and having to wear our 9 month old cousins dry pants
(Brielle was VERY mad about getting her pants wet and refused to "let" me take a picture of her in her wet clothes...so this is the best I could get).



A family picture moment (the only one with all the kids looking and Marty's head got cut off...I guess you take what you can get though.)


A parade



And a sweet mo-hawk

We have loved every second of being here and look forward to more fun and time spent with our families.

(And if my parent's computer weren't so slow I would have done more pictures...maybe a blessing in disguise for those looking.)
