Our Comings and Goings

We have had a busy last few weeks full of travelling, family and fun!

At the end of April, Adam and I went to St. George to spend the weekend for our anniversary. We had the worst hotel experience ever, which is already one of my favorite memories. We went shopping at the outlets, hiking at Zion Natl Park, and went and toured several historical sites in the area.

Adam spoiled me on the night of our anniversary and made reservations at The Painted Pony... it was pricey but really fun! I got bacon wrapped duck with apples and celery... soooooo gooooooood! We had so much fun.

The next weekend, we headed back down to Utah for Abbey's baby blessing. Aaron and Ally blessed her at their home. We had a great time seeing family.

Two days later, Taylor and I were headed down to Utah once again... this time to catch a plane to Kansas! We got to spend a week with my family for Kole's graduation. Taylor, Jed and Adrianne and I all flew out together and had lots of fun. Taylor liked the airplane and only had a minor meltdown when the airline people took her carseat. We had fun going to the zoo, having a hotdog roast, and just hanging out with the family. Taylor loved being spoiled by her grandparents.

We finally made it home and said hello and goodbye to Adam before he and Jed headed out for their annual backpacking trip. He left Friday afternoon and was supposed to be home late Tuesday night... but surprised us by coming home a day early. He came home Monday afternoon and surprised both Taylor and I... and he MADE TAYLOR'S DAY by bringing her a TRAMPOLINE!!! "Oh my GOSH! Thank you so much Dad I am so excited!!!" He made her whole year.

Now we are all home and settled into our routine again for a few days.
It's nice to visit but so nice to be home!!!
