Utah...Again!!

We just had a fun trip to Utah for the 4th of July! I also just wrote a big post about it but you will never see it because our internet is retarded and wasn't working at the time so the whole post just disappeared! I just love dial-up (yes, that was said sarcastically)!!

Anyway, we made another trip to Utah for the weekend. The kids and I spent Wednesday and Thursday with my family. We went to Ikea (definitely going back there...without kids this time), swam in the backyard kiddie pool, colored, played, made jewelry, played some more, and LOVED the weather!! We love Utah weather (except in the winter)!! Andrea loved being with Grandpa and wanted to follow him everywhere! Sammy loved playing with her cousin McKinley and her uncle Mark! Joshua cut his 5th tooth so he didn't sleep for two nights! What fun!!

Jeff came up and joined us Thursday night. We spent Friday with his family. We went down to Provo to Seven Peaks and Brick Oven. Seven Peaks was CRAZY!! I would not recommend going there on a holiday weekend. The wait for a water slide was 45 minutes (or so the brother-and sister-in-laws told me)!! Andrea even fell asleep waiting in line for one. The girls LOVED being with Steve and Kevin! Josh and I spent most of the day in the shade while he slept in my arms.

Saturday we went to a parade, BBQ, and fireworks with my family. The girls loved the parade! We had never been to one before. I had fun at the BBQ and got to see cousins (and their kids) that I haven't seen for a couple years! The kids also loved the fireworks. Mark (my brother-in-law) went and picked out an assortment at the fireworks stand and the kids LOVED them!!

My back is killing me so the drive home was not fun for me! Josh is really heavy so it is not easy on my back when I have him sleep in the pack-n-play. They are not back friendly. I hope I feel better as I can barely move without being in pain! Next time we go to Utah he is going to be sleeping in my mom's crib!

That is our trip in a nutshell!
