We have been here in Utah for 4 weeks! Can you believe it? We have been insanely busy seeing family, playing with cousins and reconnecting with long lost friends. There are so many fun things to do here. I feel like we are just on a very long vacation and that soon we will be driving back to Las Vegas. Maybe once school starts life will seem more real. Here are just some of the highlights of our adventures.....
The Cabin: It's so great to be able to drive to the cabin in 1 hour instead of 7! We went up for the day and played games, went fishing, walked in the river, ate dutch oven and then drove home and slept in our own beds! Fabulous!
The Living Planet Aquarium: Just down the street from our house. A fun place to spend a few hours and play with cousins. Nick loved the octopus!
Heriman Lake: We had a chance to see our good friends the Howells. We have missed them and are so happy to be back and start playing with them again!
Snowbird: We rode the tram to the top of the mountain and had a picnic. Then we rode the chairlift up and did the Alpine Slide! Our kids like to go fast!!
Happy 35th Birthday Keith! Celebrating with mini-cakes from Glaus Bakery! We have missed yummy Utah food!
Murray Pool:My kids loved the slides at Murray pool and must have gone down at least 50 times. It was fun to see my good friend Sarah and her kids too! Thanks for the invite!
Pebblebrook: Going to the driving range and hitting a bucket of balls. Testing out the new set of golf clubs Keith got for his birthday!
Thanksgiving Point Children's Gardens: Exploring the gardens & playing in the water with cousins and aunt Dodo!
The Dinosaur Museum: Digging in the sand for bones! Seeing huge dinosaurs! Playing in the sand & water table! Nick LOVED this place and could have lived there very happily!
The Bee's Game: 24th of July! Baseball, hanging with the Raymonds & lots of snacks!
Poor Jack actually fell asleep during the fireworks!
Torturing Uncle Kraig: A new favorite pastime!
Discovery Gateway Kids Museum: Hannah's heaven on earth! Lots of make believe & fun!
The Hansen Planetarium: A walk on the moon! 
Home: Jumping on the tramp with cousins! Look at those beautiful mountains!
Stansbury Park Pool: Swimming with cousins! Hannah going of the diving board for the first time! How brave and what a good swimmer!
Lagoon: It's what fun is! Time with Aunt Keri and a little western photography! Did I mention my kids are brave! They went on every ride they were tall enough for & loved every minute of it!.JPG)
Now you are probably asking how I manage to have time for all this? Well it's these 2 little babies! They are wonderful! I can do my laundry so much more quickly and efficiently! I love them and don't know how I managed without them before!

Wow, you guys have been busy! We are so glad you are back, we will have to set up a walking date :)
Whoa! Busy summer and I love that you try to give your washer and dryer credit :) Love having you guys back (sorry Vegas folk!) Can't wait to plan our next adventure!
You really have been busy! Glad you are doing well. You are missed greatly:) I need to give you a call so we can chat.
Wow!! You have done tons of fun things since you have been back. You have packed a whole summers worth of fun into less than a month!! Savannah keeps asking when she can play with Hannah again.
Keith, have you been going to the gym to show me up or something? Dang dude, you are looking slim. What camera and lens were you using for this trickery?? Awesome to see you guys are settling in to your new location so well! And no, Naquel had nothing to do with this post!

Wowzers! It looks like you guys are having lots of fun adventures! Great pictures! Glad to see you are well:)
My you have been very busy! Have you unpacked anything yet, it seems like you have been somewhere everyday. I have been home for 3 days straight and still have not unpacked it all. My kids want to move to SLC now after seeing your post. We will have to visit soon!
Holy smokes!!! You guys have been busy over there ... making up for lost time in the state of Utah, wow! Great pictures ... particularly the one of your new washer and dryer. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't crazy jealous ... those babies are mighty purdy!!! =)
Goodness Allison... I swear you've done more things in Utah this summer than I've done in 31 years here. Love the new washer and dryer, by the way. So shiny and new! I'll call you tomorrow and schedule our time with you...if you can squeeze us in ;)
Wow, how much fun are you having! It's been great to hang out with you guys, I did not authorize the use of that photo on your blog and will not let you take anymore :)
Just yesterday, Rex was in the back seat with his pouty face saying, " I miss Nicholas." It's so sad! Glad to see you guys are having sooo much fun. We want to come visit. Miss you!
My gosh how are you going to get to real life. What a fun place to live! I will be smiling though when you have snow and I dont!!! How fun for you to get to hang out with the Howells. Glad that you are right back up to speed with Utah :)
