St. George Getaway

Kyle planned a getaway to St. George for my birthday. A big thanks to Curtis and Linda for watching our boys for us!

We got to see two plays at Tuacahn: Thoroughly Modern Millie and Mary Poppins. We also went to the St. George temple for the first time. We had so much fun getting away together. Thanks for the awesome birthday present, Kyle.

July Activities

 Some of July's activities included:

Children's Bike Parade. We made it through the parade fine, but at the finish the rains came pouring down. We tried to wait it out, but we finally ran to our car. We were totally drenched and the boys were crying.

We've continued our weekly hikes. One week we went with Melissa and her kids to hike at Snowbird. We packed a picnic dinner, but who can eat when a pot-gut is around? Not Noah. He was glued to the ground looking for the tame animal who loved cheetoes, as were all the other kids.

Jason enjoyed some carnival rides with Austin and Grandma Linda at Steel Days. Noah got to hang out with me in the wrap.

Watching the Highland Days parade.

We've also enjoyed more boating with Grandpa Jesse, and Jason has loved going to his swimming lessons.

Noah finally decided to walk everywhere in July-- he was 17 months old. Now I can't get anything done while he is awake, except play :).

Noah's Photo Shoot

Melissa took these pictures of Noah back in May when Noah was 15 months old. I am obviously not very funny or entertaining because I could not get this kid to crack a smile.

This is one of my favorites. I was blowing bubbles to get him to smile, and he started blowing too.

I had a hard time getting a good smile out of Jason, too. He is almost four in this picture.

Austin and Jason

This is my very favorite picture!
