Week in Utah {July 11-20}

The highlight of our week-long trip to Utah was, of course, spending time with family. It was great to be back and be with everyone again, and the week of course went by too fast! We managed to fit in quite a few fun activities – swimming with grandparents & cousins, lunch at City Creek, fishing (the boys- while I met up with a couple of friends), hot dog roast up the canyon, a baseball game, a visit to the Bean Museum, playing tennis, a splash pad, Cherry Hill, and lots of backyard fun including rocket launching, throwing the ball to Zoey, gathering eggs, and a slip & slide. Nate and I even managed to fit in two little dates – an early morning hike up Adam’s Canyon, and a late-night tandem bike ride. We had a great week, and were sad to leave at the end. Looking forward to our next trip back!

All the cousins together – they were actually all willingly sitting on the log for the picture!
