we went on a trip...

so my sister-in-law, Erin, said she was going to Arizona to visit our family down there and asked if i wanted to come. sure! then a about a week before we left my sister, Konda, decided she wanted to come too. we left on a Friday to go to St. George to visit with Grandma Tweedie for a day. then Saturday we drove through Las Vegas, picked up my dad at the airport, and drove on down to Sierra Vista.


we went on a hike,



played in the water,

lounged around,

played outside,

my folks got a go-cart, it went super fast the boys said. i told my mom it was kinda nice without any dads there. that way i got to give most of the go-cart rides! and it was FUN to drive.

some of Owen,

roasting marshmallows,
my niece, Briley was baptised.


there was some really silly dancing.
met up with old friends. Russ had a roommate named CJ. we got married, then he got married to Laurie and then they moved in the same apartment complex we did. we moved a few streets over and they moved next door. they had their first child, Mercy, and they day we saw them in the hospital we found out i was pregnant. they moved to Salt Lake, i had William & Jonathon, they had Porter. then they moved to Sierra Vista where i am from! i had Owen at around 8 pm on the 24, Laurie had Jamison just after midnight, so he was born the 25. whenever i go to Sierra Vista we try to get together.



these two were born around 4 hrs apart.

i met up with one of my best friends, Brianna. we went and saw her oldest boy, Junior, play basketball.

Jonathon wanted to take a picture too.

oh, and Jonathon also went head first in the springs on the trampoline.

we also had a lot of fun seeing Sadie again. too bad i didn't get a picture of her and my boys. we love all our cousins and it was great getting together with almost all of them, we missed you Paige & Brooke (and parents!) thanks Grammy Tammy & Grandpa Dave for a great two weeks!

It was so fun to see you guys, minus the menfolk! I love the photos of Owen and Jameson, they're neck and neck on everything, I love it! We'll have to get together with Nate when we come to Utah in July, I'll get CJ to call him, I promise!

Wow....that sounds like a lot of fun! I don't know if I would survive a trip like that without my hubby though! You're such a fun mommy!
