This past week we went up to Utah. It's a very long drive with a lot of kids in a little space. On our way home, one of our DVD players went out and it made it an even longer drive with seemingly even more kids with even less space. So....it's a good thing it's worth the drive.
We were able to visit with so many cousins and everyone's at such a fun age. Cousins are usually the greatest part of traveling. It's amazing how many of our boys love the time they have with their cousins. We went to the "Dinosaur Museum" and the "Animal" Museum. The "Animal Museum was on BYU campus, so TPM and I took the opportunity to do some "brainwashing". We took them on campus to show them "where all their classes would be". Then, we took them to the cafeteria and let them pick out anything they wanted, because "college students gets to eat what they want" (including a big ol' ice cream cone at the end). In the middle of the lunch, Blurbles asked, "So, college students get to eat whatever they want every day with all their friends?" I repied, "Yep!" Blurbles was sold. We hope he's a BYU Cougar in 12 short years. :)
We enjoyed some yummy food and enjoyed some more visiting on the way home.
My sweet sister-in-law took some family pics. They are great. They are on her blog:

We loved our visiting, but always enjoy coming home.
such fun, cute, precious pictures of your whole family. The littlest one looks just like his mama in that pic sitting in the leaves. Sweet!
ReplyDeleteSUPER LOVE these pictures!!! Shelly did an amazing job, she's very talented! Now the hard part is figuring which one to send out! :)
ReplyDeleteWhat awesome pictures! Love them...you actually look like you're all having fun. In my experience, family pictures are anti-fun. You're lucky. :)
ReplyDeleteI. LOVE. THE. PICTURES!!!! She definitely knows what to do with a big group of kids. I'm in love with the shot of Puppy in the pine tree. He's got such a big happy smile.
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear about the broken DVD player, THAT is a recipe for misery! Seriously how did we all survive childhood trips back in the day without movies?
