Back and Forth to Utah

We went to Utah a couple of times this last week. Needless to say I was happy to not have to drive anymore. Thursday was my Great Grandpa's funeral, It was a bitter sweet day. I came away appreciative to have gotten to know, in a small way, such an awesome man. He emulated the parable of talents so well. I came away wanting to become more. Saturday we had a few fun adventures. We stopped at temple square, the boys loved all the water fountains. Kaleb told me "The temple is gorgeous Mom", I thought he was cute. Kenden had to walk everywhere, which is an adventure in its self in downtown. My adorable nephew had a birthday and we had a fun water party. It was a busy week. Maybe I am odd but I like those kind of weeks every once in a while.

The boys..

The boys thought the walk to the Christos was cool.

Getting everyone to look at the camera can be interesting

Daddy Day!

I think that my kids have the best Dad ever! I have heard it said that you are to think of the most patient person you know, and then you should try to be more like them (I think it was Elder Uchtdorf). My husband is the most patient, peacemaking, fun and funny, person I have ever meet. I love watching him play with our kids and how he can make them laugh in his special way. They love it when he first gets home and have a special way of telling him. He is everything that I ever could dream for and even more! Happy Fathers Day! You are a blessing to me and to our boys! We love you!

Life size Thomas!

Thank You Papa!!

The Thomas ride in Heber, Utah. We had an awesome time, Kaleb loved it, he has been talking about it everyday since Saturday. His first reaction to the life size Thomas was shock and awe...There were lots of little activites to do while you waited. Through it all Kaleb just wanted to know when he could ride Thomas. Kenden enjoyed the ride just as much as Kaleb pointing out all the cows and other animals he could see out his window.It was so fun to watch the reaction of the kids!
