Girls Summer Trip

This Summer the girls and I drove back to Utah to spend some time with grandma, grandpa, cousins, aunts and uncles. We had a great time. Here are just a few of our pictures from the trip...There were so many great ones it was hard to choose. Here are some of our favorites.
One of the first days after we got to Utah we were able to celebrate Pioneer Day. The girls had so much fun at basically their first parade. They loved all the candy and extras they got. They had a blast waving at the queens and getting them to wave back
Grandma and I took the girls to BYU's Bean Museum. They had so much fun and it was really nice. They have really improved that museum. Of course we then had to go to the creamery and get some chocolate milk. As we were walking in my girls said "this is where we buy the best chocolate milk in the whole world right?"
A few days later we were able to go to East Canyon and go camping for a few days. It did rain on us, but we had a lot of fun anyway. We went swimming, played mini golf, played at the splash pad, watched movies, had fun in the trailer and the girls did some shopping in the little store. This picture is something only my family would understand, but this picture is a memory from growing up for me. When I was little my brother always had to sleep under the table bed...so my girls thought it would be fun to sleep like Uncle Brent did.
When we came home from camping, the girls, grandma, Uncle Brent, KeKoa and I went fishing. They had so much fun catching their fish.
 After fishing we went to the dinosaur park. We have heard good things about this place, but it was our first time ever going to it. It was a lot of fun, but you had to be careful because they dinosaurs just might get ya.
 While we were at the dinosaur park we found the world's most dangerous creatures! Look out they will really grab you!
We got to go to the Zoo also. I am just so amazed at how much they improve the zoo each and every time we go. The kids had so much fun and they loved spending that time with their cousin.
 We attended the bird show as always. It was also great. We all loved it. The kids loved having their picture taken with the birds.
One of the last days we were in town the Ogden Temple Open House had begun. It was a great opportunity for me to take my girls into a temple and allow them to see all the rooms we have discussed. It was such a great time. What an amazing opportunity for us to have.
 YEAH THE RODEO!! We got to attend a rodeo with Aunt JuLee, Grandma and Uncle Brent. It was so much fun. The girls even got spoiled by Uncle Brent. They sure love him. 
It was hard to say goodbye to family. We are so grateful we got to spend so much time with family and were able to create so many memories. Thanks to all those that made this trip so much fun!!
