MIA

Okay, so I've been a little MIA lately...it's been CRAZY here. Jed got here from Houston and time just flew by! It's been a lot of fun and it's been nice to have Jed here and for him to not have to work so he could do a bunch of fun stuff with us! He will soon start work but until then...the party must go on! LOL!

We've had some good times visiting with Jed's sister and her family who was here from CA. The cousins got along great and Makenzi enjoyed hanging out with "Brook" aka Derek and he enjoyed hanging out with "Kansas" aka Kenzi! So funny!

We spent some time visiting some of our FAVORITE people: the Barlow's. They invited us to their gorgeous home in St. George for some good times. Jed got some golfing in, the girls got some shopping in and Jed and I actually escaped to Vegas for a night WITHOUT kids! Whoa!!!! We also managed to relive some good times and play "five cards of crayons" and mixed it up a little with a little Dr. Mario! I should add that for our 7th anniversary Jed surprised me with a night in Vegas and tickets to a show! Hence our escape to Vegas. Yay! We went and saw "O" and Bellagio and it was fabulous! Sure it was hot down there but a vacation is a vacation and I'll take it any time of the year!!! THANK YOU BARLOWS for watching our kids overnight! You guys are AWESOME!!!


On our drive back home we decided to take a detour and visit Bryce Canyon! I had forgotten how spectacular the view was! It is so amazing there! Kenzi wasn't scared at all which I thought for sure she would. It was just so beautiful there! It was fun just to drive through the mountains!!! How we have MISSED the MOUNTAINS!!! It was such a scenic drive!
We also took off and went up to Park City to shop around and enjoy the weather! It was a gorgeous day that day! Kenzi's fave part was riding on the merry-g0-round. Can you blame her?

Cherry Hill was a lot of fun. Kenzi did NOT want to get out of the Lazy River. We pretty much did that the ENTIRE time! Seriously! She had so much fun. Finally we just put her in Jax's floaty and let her at it! It was a good time for sure! (Don't worry she wasn't all alone in the water, Jed was following her around! Ü)
That pretty much sums up or activities! It's been a bit crazy but a lot of fun. The summer is just flying by!! Off to go do more stuff...
