Our Summer Trip to Utah - Part 1

We spent two whole weeks...So I hope these pictures capture just a bit of the fun we had!

This was the quietest part of the whole trip...well at least as soon as Andrew fell asleep!
First we visited some good friends and enjoyed their lake "beach".
Then it was Family Reunion Time and swimming, swimming and more swimming!And nap time...My uncle's backyard borders the Provo river which was pretty heavy with water for this time of year.We did actually see a large and impressive fireworks show but the kids enjoyed the "show" before the show.

End of Year One

Ava successfully completed her first year of preschool. She was fortunate enough to have quite a few really great friends there at Busy Bee Academy.

Following the graduation and awards ceremony, we all enjoyed an fun and adventurous lunch at Rainforest Cafe.

To round out the festivities of the week, we took a trip to our local Build-a-Bear and she picked out her very own Jack Russell Terrier.

(Just a side note: The Build-a-Bear trip was a reward for a very successful and cavity-free trip to the dentist. Hooray!)
