4th -just the beginning

WARNING: Picture overload ahead

Yesterday began our adventure of a road trip to visit my family for the 4th of July weekend. Fortunately we were able to stop in Cedar City for the night and hang out with some of our best friends, The Harpers. We didn't do much, but we really enjoyed ourselves. Thanks to Jared for bbq'ing we had a yummy dinner. Milo (our dog) had fun chasing Braden around, and Paityn had fun chasing Ashton around. As you will see in some pictures, I think he got a little tired of it...or maybe just plain TIRED! Geoff enjoyed capturing bath time with the camera and I had fun practicing some photography with the cutest 3 year old in the world. Braden was such a good model for me, and I caught him in some fun activities, running and throwing rocks. What else do little boys like to do? All in all, we had lots of fun, and we really want to end up as neighbors sooner than later. We love you guys. Thanks for the hospitality.
This morning we left early, to beat the traffic. We have been at my parents for about 4 hours now and I am already blogging. How obsessed am I? Paityn is now napping, but before we put her down we let her have a little treat (just practicing for the birthday showdown). After the monster of a COSTCO CUPCAKE, I hosed her off. She actually didn't mind it. Most likely because it is almost 100 degrees here. So now nap time, and then dinner with the family. What fun...Can't wait to tell you about the next few days!
