Vacay! Day 1

We went on V-A-C-A-T-I-O-N! And it was great! It wasn't really planned, but turned out perfect! Ken had to go to Utah for some training on a Thursday, so we were going to leave Wednesday night, take Friday off and come back Sunday. Well, then he won a bid for a job in southern Utah for the following Tuesday! So, we just stayed down there the whole week! It was so nice and we just loved being with his family and seeing some old friends! We love Grandpa Ned and Grammy Penny SO much for putting us up for a week!!

We had a pretty rough trip to UT and we didn't get in until around 4am! Ken only got a couple hours sleep before he had to be up and to the training! The kids were up bright and early and excited to see all the family we had been talking about! Grammy Penny was at a conference and Grandpa Ned was fixing a shower, so we just played in the yard. The kids LOVED the sandbox and we spent a lot of time out there!This was Hayden's first big trip and first time to Utah! He actually did the best out of all of us!!
Bailey wanted me to take her picture here and Taysum wanted in on it, too!
A little later in the day, we had some fun visitors! Aunt Leah came over and we got to meet little Lucy for the first time! We were so excited to meet her! We also got to see Aunt Alicia and Sammi and Ryan and Uncle Paul and Aunt Jessica with Garrett, Kymball, Addy and Cooper. It was so fun to see everyone! It was a little tough without Ken around, but he was sure happy to see everyone when he got back.

I thought this was just a funny pose! Hayden really likes his hands and I wonder if we'll have a thumb sucker on our hands!? He is getting SO big! We had his 2 month appointment the day we left and he was 15 pounds and in the 97th percentile for height and weight!!
Later that night, we went and had an ice cream sandwhich/popcorn party at the Neilsens!

The crew
We were pretty exhausted after such a late night (early morning) before, but we were so excited to be there! We were off to a great start to the week!
