Long Trip = Long Post

We got to spend two weeks in Utah and got to see most of our family, but we must have been having fun because time sure flew by!

Goldilocks trying out a chair that's just her size

And our new little fireman taking his new ride for a spin
(well, it's for all the grandkids, but we won't tell him that quite yet!)



McCall returning some phone calls

Being a fireman again at the Treehouse Museum with Kent

Trying out the giant xylophone 

These two had to wait a lot for their older brothers

The babies in the "hospital" were a favorite of McCall's...

And Kent's
(I'm sure Ammon won't mind when Kent is a doctor one day!)

Aunt LeAnn helping build an arch with giant blocks

A little interaction

She apparently felt like she had won a major award when she got ahold of one of Kent's birthday cards 
The cool new fountains in Farmington

They sync them with lights and music at the top of every hour. Very cool.

A little swimming to beat the heat

Cheese fries at Johnny Rockets - Yumm!

I guess we were having too much fun for me remember to take pictures of everyone in the canoes. This was the only one I got of the lake, but it sure was fun!

Sandcastles at the park

Two peas in a pod (or at least a swing)

A pair of animals

Watching the seals

The polar bear was a big show-off and kept coming right up to the glass

Almost always content if there's a morsel of food to be found

One of my favorite pictures to get at the zoo

Enjoying a cool beverage at the Provo parade

The bubbles that my cousin Stephanie brought were a big hit until Cade tipped them over
(I owe you a bottle Steph!)

The whole crew

Cade wasn't a big fan of the loud noises

We even got to see Lance and Robin while we were there.
We miss everyone and look forward to our next visit!

Second, 1st Birthday

McCall's second Birthday was in Utah at Grandma and Grandpa's, and she was lucky enough to have lots of aunts and uncles and all her cousins there! She was spoiled once again and is definitely a big fan of cake! 

The patio all decked out for the party and delicious BBQ dinner!

Two best buddies having a lot of fun

Great-grandma was even able to come!
(We took several pictures, but the open mouth one was the best)

Aunts, uncles and McKinley's toes!

McCall and her special #1 cake made by Grandma

Loving the cake

Making sure none goes to waste!

Cambria, Kevin, and her newest cousin McKinley

Lots...

…and lots...

…of presents! Thank you everyone!
