Weekend Trip



For Memorial Day weekend, we were able to drive up to central Utah to visit family. Although we were shocked that gas cost us over $100, we had a great time and it was really nice to see everyone. Connor enjoyed the extra attention and a big yard to run around in. My brother Erik and his wife Natalie were in able to drive down from Logan to see us too! I didn't see much of my husband though over the weekend. He was up on the mountain fishing most of the time. He had a great time and even caught 30-40 fish in one afternoon! Yum!

Connor is Walking!

Connor has been walking for a few weeks now and we finally were able to get a decent video of him. We promise his head doesn't wobble this much all of the time. Jake asked Connor if he wanted the camera, and he was just nodding "yes" :) When I sent this video to my parents my mom said, "His head is too big! He can't balance it when he's walking!" She was relieved when I told her what he was doing. Enjoy!

Snow Canyon Hike

Last Saturday, we decided to drive up to St. George and go on a short hike at Snow Canyon. What a beautiful time of year! The colors of the desert flowers were amazing! Growing up in the east, I'm somewhat embarrassed to say, that I didn't even know cacti had blossoms. Unfortunately, during our hike, Connor wasn't happy for too long in our little backpack carrier. We had to stop and let him crawl around a bit, and most of the time he rode on our shoulders. He seemed to really enjoy climbing up this small hill; he may even have a future hobby in rock climbing!
