Summer Fun
11 Jun
My parents visited from Arizona a couple of weeks ago, and here are some of the fun things we were able to do.
Camping at Little Mill Campground in American Fork Canyon
Highlights: Nathan and Kaisa in the hammock, sleeping in the van with the kids, s’mores, corn-on-the-cob
Taking a family hike
Hanging out in the hammock with dad
Staying warm in mom's sling
Is something wrong with this picture?
Trip to Moab, Utah to see my brother while he was home from Iraq for R&R
Highlights: seeing my brother. The rest was quite exhausting and daring, especially with two kids!
How is this possible?
Kaisa, Grandpa, Aunt Roseanne and Uncle Heath
A view of the Colorado River
Mussleman's Arch. If you zoom in, you can see my dad and brother making their bodybuilder poses.
To prove that I actually walked across it. It was about 4 ft wide and 3 ft thick, and below it was a 50 ft drop! If you zoom in, you can see that Kaisa is sitting on it with grandma and uncle Heath. Everett is in the baby carrier on my chest. Am I a crazy mom?
Provo Canyon
Highlights: fishing with grandpa, playing in the water and grass, dinner picnic, gorgeous scenery
We finally got a new camera. Nathan picked a good one...it takes great pictures for a point & shoot!
Sometimes I wish I could see the world through her eyes.
Having fun outdoors. What a lucky woman I am!
A little girl in a big world
Dippin' the feet
Grandpa sure knows how to use a fishing pole!
Here's the trout to prove it!
So this is a really funny story...Kaisa wanted to push Everett back to the car, but since it was downhill and the stroller was loaded with stuff, it just kept going faster and faster. Kaisa gave up trying to push and lifted her little feet off the ground for a ride!
Swimming in the backyard
Highlights: going down the slide into the pool, splashing, getting sprayed with the hose, bringing various objects into the pool
Yes...the grass hadn't been cut in a while...we're still getting used to the whole grass thing!
Taking a fleeting second to glance at the camera
Sliding into the pool...her favorite!
As you can see, we’ve been having lots of fun so far, and there is much more to come! (If the rain will ever stop.)
Hi, you don’t know me but I see we have a mutual friend, Jeff Decker. I’ve lost contact with him when he moved from AZ to UT and have been trying to get in touch with him(we worked together at Good Sam in Phoenix). Would you be so kind as to give him my email address so we can reconnect, he was a good friend.
Thanks, Cherie Lugano
