Quick Trip

 We had such a short weekend! It went by WAY to fast. As always.  We had a birthday party for my niece on Friday night.  Poor girl got sick so we didn't really get to celebrate! I can't believe she is 12 and is off at girls camp this week! YIKES! I remember when she was Ryker's age.  And now she is into clothes and teenage girl things!

Then we headed to Utah.  We were able to stop by and hang out with our fun friends, Jeff & Amy.  They have some of the cutest little boys! Grant is a couple moths older than Ryker and he is talking and playing like such a big boy! We went and played at a park and had a fun little picnic.  We played in the sandbox and Ryk had a lot of fun dumping sand into the dump truck.  We also got to try out the swings again.  The last couple of times we've tried the swings, Ryk didn't not like them! But this time, he loved it! Up until he almost fell out. 

I also got to meet up with the bestie, Megs.  We did a quick catch up while we walked through IKEA.  Surprisingly we both left empty handed.  I guess we were to busy talking and taking advantage of the AC.  She looked super cute with her 20 week little belly.  I forgot she was pregnant because I could hardly see her bump! But I did get to talk to her little man and do the creepy belly rub! Thanks Megs! I'm excited to see you again! I am SO excited because I finally get to throw her a baby shower! I missed her wedding so I didn't get to throw her any fun party then.  Its going to be SOOO fun!
(so you Idaho friends, mark your calendar and send me your address so you can come to her shower! August 27th)

Then we had our family pics...while we were waiting in Murray I called my sista (mission sista), Staci. Her and her hubby, Blake came over and we got to see them for a few minutes! I love that girl!  I wish I would;ve taken some pics with her! Dang it. :(

It was SO hot outside...all of us were sweating like crazy.  I hope they turn out good! We then went to get some gelato & pizza at Stettebello. OH.MY.WORD. SOOO good! We didn't get to eat the pizza cause Trev and I had to head back up to Ogden and it was already 10. The gelato was to die for! Its my new favorite and I am glad we live 3 hours away from it or else I would eat it daily! We stayed with my awesome Aunt & Uncle...who I adore. I don't really know a lot of our Utah family, there really is a lot of us all over. But Stella and Randy had kids in identical order and close to the same age as our family.  We all just grew up and played together since we were little.  I wish we were closer, but we all know how life goes.  We got to go to church with them and my cousin Stacey.

Then we headed up to see my Grandma & Grandpa in Bear River.  They seriously crack me.  I love them to pieces!! Ryker loves them and we had fun playing with legos and listening to Grandma tell her stories and update us on the fam.

We finally made it home and we were exhausted.  It was a long 36 hours!  Now Trev is facing finals week and I am SO excited to have him home for 7 weeks! Only 4 more days!
