Our Trip to Utah

This last weekend we were able to drive down to Utah and visit some family. We had such a good time and it was so nice that we could actually drive in a day to where our family lives. We spent Saturday with my side of the family and Sunday with Brad's side. It was so fun to see everyone and to catch up. The kids played like they hadn't been apart and our conversations picked up right where they left off. We are so lucky to have such great families! The only part about living in Denver that we are sad about is being this far away from family. But this trip confirmed to us that the distance is very doable.

Here is a little video of Olivia laughing...she hasn't really laughed until now which is why I was so giddy. Excuse my nerdiness and enjoy the awesome video!

The first couple of nights we stayed at Shay and Chelsea's house! It was so fun to hang out and catch up! I had to rethink if I really loved Colorado enough to be away from family...it's a tough call. We missed Paige, Matt and Abby and hope to be able to see them soon! We were able to see Griff and Kate for the first time after they were married! They are darling and it was so fun to spend some time with them. We laughed until we (I) cried and had a lot of fun together! Thanks for letting us stay with you guys! It was so good to see you!!!

It's always a treat to watch the BYU game in the Gunnell theater! Even though BYU lost, it was a pretty good game against TCU. Then on Sunday, we had a delicious dinner at the Bairds and got to see Melissa and Steve for the first time in a year! We also got to see Amy and David, Danny and Mary and kids and the Bairds, of course.

We spent the chilly Monday morning in the hot tub! The kids loved being able to swim although they aren't very good or confident with swimming. It was fun to see the steam coming off their bodies when they got out. Thanks Bairds for such a fun sleepover and delicious dinner!!It was really hard to get into the car and drive away from those we love and miss living near! Thanks for such a wonderful trip everyone!! We sure love and miss you all!!

A different look

So after that last post, I noticed that we usually do Olivia's hair up which changes her look completely! And for those of you who don't get to see Livi on a regular basis, you need to see her different look. She's like another baby! Either look, I LOVE HER!!!

The cutest face...




Even with a snot factory, this little baby is the cutest thing! She has the funnest personality!! She'll give you a little cheeser rain or shine...even when she's about to cry or crying. She now has 2 teeth on the bottom and is crawling! And her hair is getting so light, she now matches her siblings. Except for her mop on top which is atleast 4 inches longer than the rest and 3 shades darker. We are so proud of her! I can't believe she's so big! We love her so much!!!
