Enter....where???

After Lake Powell we headed to see my sister, Amy and her family in Enterprise. It was fun to see their house and play with all the cousins. The boys did not stop the whole time they were there.
When we got there the boys went horse back riding. Then on the four wheeler. The next day they got to play all morning with cousins, until church. After church we left to head up to Salt Lake. Briggs cried for about a half an hour saying he did not even get to play!! Then the boys were out cold the rest of the drive. It was great! Thanks to Amy and Jared for letting us come stay and being great hosts as always! Can't wait for you to come visit us someday!!

Real cowboys wear...Flip-flops??!??

Briggs seemed to like that a bit more than the jet skis.

Not sure if they were getting any cleaner

Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale... A four week tour... A four week tour

Well, it has been a while since the last posting, but this time I have a good excuse!! The boys and I went out west for a month to visit family! I will be honest, thinking about being off schedule with the boys and staying different places for a whole four weeks did not get me too excited. However, the trip was so much fun and we had such a great time seeing all our family!!
Owen still wakes up every morning asking "what cousins do I get to play with today." And Briggs has asked several times, "Why does everyone have to live so far away." We do love South Carolina, the only downfall is being so far away from everyone. Thanks to everyone for letting us make our selves at home, babysitting, borrowing car, crashing at your houses, etc. etc. We miss you already!!
Okay, now on to the pictures... I will try and do this in order of events... We started our trip by flying into Salt Lake. We stayed at the Hughes Hotel. They were great hosts feeding us LOTS of melt away cookies (which is now a family fav). The next morning we woke up early and headed down to Lake Powell (the one thing Rob might love even more than his dear sweet loving wife). We had a great time. All three boys loved the water and all the water toys and I enjoyed a lot of R and R...

A little snooze before the fun begins
Hanging out in the Lake

The Hike Rob, his parents, and a group of others went on...Sometimes being pregnant does have its advantages!!
Bob and Rich...Stuck between a rock and a hard place
It's Party Time!! The Nielsens and the Kennedys (Some of our closest AZ friends) were in Lake Powell the same time, so we were able to see them one night. It was fun to watch the kids together and get caught up...Miss you guys!!
