Here are a load of pictures and a few videos to make up for not blogging in forever. Here is what has been happening this month. We went to Bear Lake for a camp out trip, and had a blast. We had a terrible stod Lylia slept through the whole thing. Amazing. We had Justin's brother David come home from his mission. We forgot to take our camera because we were just too excited to see him. Justin started school this last week, and I started my job a little over a week ago, and Lylia started day care. We have been busy busy busy. Our schedules are very hectic so I am glad that I can updatrm while we were there ane on our blog. So here are
the pictures.

This is the start of our camping trip. Car loaded and ready to go! Thank goodness we have a big car. Apparently we don't camp lite.

On the way back from Bear Lake we stopped to see Grandpa's Grave. I sure do miss him. I wouldn't leave the cemetery without seeing it. I wish he was still here on Earth. I can think of a thousand things to tell him.

This is a bike we rented for an afternoon. The KOA we stayed at had miniature golf, bikes, a swimming pool, this giant air pad and showers! Nothing like roughing it with a shower. Best way to camp for me!


At the Raspberry festival which was the reason we went, we got to eat Cotton Candy and enjoy being outside all day. We wore Lylia out every day though, and she slept solid through the night.

Justin and Lylia trying to make a tall tower. Pretty pathetic. LOL, just quoting Justin.

Lylia loved playing at the "big waterpark" she she referred to it as. It was a giant sand box and big waterpark. Too fun.

Lylia's swim suit is too big for her when she gets wet, and well it falls down a lot. So we had to take this picture. Good thing she's got a diaper to cover her.


Justin thought it would be brilliant to fly at kite on the beach, but the kite didn't work like it was supposed to. Sad attempt.


We had yummy smores each night. Most of the fun for me was just hanging out around the tent in the evening. I'd look forward to that all day. Can you see the storm clouds coming in, this is before the big storm hit.


Lylia in our tent hanging out. She loved that she could jump on the beds.

Lylia's new obsession is Barney. She knows all the songs. So if you want to get the best happy reaction from Lylia let her open a Barney dvd and you are her favorite person.

Lylia just being sweet talking to me while I worked on the Budget.

We made a pizza and it was so yummy!

Lylia's other obsession is coloring. We found these crayons that work on windows! She loves them, and I am glad she loves to color.

I found Justin and Lylia snuggling with each other fast asleep! It was a long night of Lylia going through separation anxiety. We lost the battle, and she ended up sleeping in our bed. This doesn't ever happen but when a child wakes up 15 times, I think this was the smart way for all of us to get sleep.

Oh I'm so happy to see an update and with lots of pictures too! Lyli is getting so big and her hair is getting so long! But she is still as small and adorable as ever, so that makes me feel a bit better, like I haven't missed too much. Looks like such a great vacation, makes me wish we could go to Bear Lake too! And smores..yummm
Wow! What a GREAT post :o) I loved all the pictures and the video clip was something else! Gordon was in the other room and he could hear it and asked "What is THAT??" Amazing that she slept through it all. Looks like you had such a fun, fun time. Wish we could have been there to enjoy it with you. So glad that you stopped to see Grandpa. It made me tear up to see it again....we really miss him don't we?!
I have to admit though that I am kind of sad that Elmo isn't her favorite any more....she's growing up. sigh :-( Keep up with the posts...they are great!!!
Once you have kids, packing light doesn't exist anymore! We love it up at Bear Lake, we've always wondered how the KOA is up there we stay really close to there when we go. Sounds like you guys have been having fun. I meant to call you to see you again when we were there, where did the time go? Glad we saw you briefly :)
