Our last night- FHE

We took a trip to Paces for some ice-cream. Eli even got a few bites from granpa's sunday and Ryland's popcicle. Spoiled!

Happy Birthday Grandpa!

We were lucky enough to be there for my dad's birthday. I won't tell you his age, but the picture might give it away. We love you Grandpa!

Friends, Friends, Friends!

During our visit we saw a lot of our friends! Here are just a few. Eli and I went to see Spring at her new place. Aren't they cute?!
My good friend Annalynne married Cody's mission buddy Michael. We had lunch at Michael's mom's house (the food was amazing)! It was great to see them all.
A bunch of our friends from our old ward had a BBQ so we could see them all. The Hossfields, Larsens, Wilhites, and Hansens came. We didn't get a chance to get out the old Settlers game, but it was fun to chat and catch up with everyone. They are a fun group of people!

Visit with Grandma Patterson

We visited my grandma a couple of times while we were in Utah. She loved playing with Eli and talking to us.

Eli Crawls July 9, 2008

Before we went to Utah I knew it was only a matter of days before Eli started to crawl. Sure enough a few days into our visit he did it. We were so excited and so proud of him. Maybe that is why I haven't been able to blog very much, he keeps me busy!

Hanging out at Grandma and Grandpa G's

Yes, more pictures from JULY! I am horrible at keeping this up to date. These are some snapshots of the fun times we had at my parents house.
Ashlyn playing with Eli on the floor.
Melissa blowing bubbles with the boys
Twinners! Promise we didn't plan that.
A bunch of the boys watching a movie. One of the many fun things to do at Grandma's.
Treyson found the dress-ups witch had my old clogging outfit in it. I think he had a little help by his sister. He made is dad proud!
Brielle giving Eli a hug.
Grandpa and Eli figuring out this interesting toy.
Aaron was Eli's biggest fan, he loved playing with him and rubbing his ears. I think Eli liked it as well.
Swinging like a bunch of monkeys
Merv playing with the kids. She came over several times to see us and she and Nate also invited us over for dinner and games one night. We had a great time with them.
Aunt Melissa talking to Eli.

Swimming at Clearfield Pool

When we were in Utah in July we went swimming with my sister Jenny and her two boys Ryland and Carter. Eli had a lot of fun. When we would lay him on his back in the water he looked like he was going to fall asleep. It was really cute.
