Family Vacation

This year my family vacation was in Vernal Utah. I know, Vernal, who vacations there... right? Well, we did, and we had so much fun. The first day we went river rafting but I have to steal those pictures from my brother. So I just have pictures from the rest of the trip.

Eli was so protective of Ethan. But when we were laying there trying to fall asleep he had to be right next to him and he was constantly making sure that he had his blanket on.


Did you know Vernal had a temple? I did not. It was so small, it kind of just looked like a slightly enlarged church. I honestly think that I heard somewhere that it once was a church.




Ethan loved his first experience camping. The weather was kind of hard to keep him out of because it was pretty windy so I would cover him with a blanket to get him out of the wind, but then he would get hot and sweaty. So it was a toss up on what to do, but we survived and had lots of fun. He loves being outside.



The second to last day we went to the dinosaur museum and it was really cool. Eli loves dinosaurs so he was all about seeing the different skeletons and statues. He has so many really good friends in his cousins as you can plainly see from the pictures. He is always in someones arms, although I am not totally sure why he is always being held.


Elise was trying to give this handsome boy a kiss... what do you think?

Elise and Eli..... best buddies.

A group shot of some of the family. Lara, Amy, Haley, Janis, Elise, Eli, Matt and Ethan.

Ethan was there and he even got out of the stroller every once in while.

Haley and Eli... also best buddies.

Love you Lara. You always look so cute

Haley, Elise, Eli, Janis, and Ashlee.... Say cheese.

Elise and Eli in the exploration room. They had tons of dinosaurs and books about dinosaurs. If we hadn't been following the crew,Im sure that Eli could have spent a few more hours in the particular place in the museum.

I love this group shot. Terri bent down and to hold Ethan in the picture. Its so cute. I love how Tucker is just chillin off to the side all by himself. He is such a cute little boy. I have so many cute nieces and nephews.






My boys sleep in some pretty strange positions but they sure look pretty dang cute.



Zac having some good times in Eli's Batman tent.


I went to go put Eli to bed and this is the only way that I could get him to finally fall asleep. He was upside down, wedged between our two mattresses and wanted nothing to do with having a blanket on. He sure looked super cute though. He was just being stubborn.

Amy holding Ethan. One of Eli's favorite cousins. As you can see, Ethan is following close in his footsteps, look at how hard he is staring up at her.

Ashlee, Michelle, and Nick. They just got engaged and they are getting married the end of July. They are so cute together. I know they will be so happy.

Eli playing his first game of Red Rover. I would band this game from ever being played if I could. I hate it. Oh to often do kids get close lined and thrown back yards. I hated it when I was younger, and things still have not changed.
