Utah!!

I'm finally posting pics of our trip to Utah. We had so much time spending time with family. Jaylee doesn't do well with new people but she always remembers our family and loves to see them.

One night we went on a walk near my grandpa's house where we found my dream home. My grandpa brought us here because they have a zoo in their backyard that they let people walk through. They had camels, cows, deer, peacocks, ducks, geese, swans, and a cat. Jaylee was in heaven and I am still amazed that people had all of this in their backyard.

My mom is so good to Jaylee. I have actually never met a child that doesn't love my mom.

Jaylee and I got to spend time with Grandma and Grandpa Stumpe as well. She got to make hand prints on a stone for Grandma Stumpe's garden.

Then we went outside where she got to smell all of Grandma's pretty flowers and taste her fresh peas, right out of the garden.


We feel so lucky that Jaylee has a cousin that is her age. Dylan or "da-an"(as Jaylee says) and her have so much fun together but are as different as night and day, or girl and boy.


We loved being able to spend time outside. Everyone in Utah kept saying how hot it was, but to us, it was bliss.
Dylan and Jaylee with their amazing aunts!! We enjoyed bouncing on the tramp, running in the grass(I had no idea how much I loved grass until I moved to Arizona where there is very little grass and a whole lot of rocks.),swinging, and going on walks around the block.

It is always so good to be with family. I feel lucky to have parents that I am so close to and siblings that I adore. We all get along so well. I am also blessed to have wonderful in-laws. We are so spoiled to have all of you!!
