Utah...

We are finally getting back into the swing of things after a week in Utah! We had so much fun and I'm sorry for those of you who I didn't get to see while I was there. My parents went last minute and bought me a plane ticket to go with them, (aren't they SO nice) so Tuckers Auntie Kayla could get some time with him. ( I think that they only invited me as a babysitter) :) Anyway, we had so much fun and the time went by so fast. Since I was kind of just along for the ride, I didn't want to be too demanding in my desires to go everywhere to visit all my friends, so we spent the week hanging out in Provo with Kayla and Jason, and made a few little day trips to some fun places. Most of our outings were Tucker related. Here is our trip. (This is kind of a long one and wouldn't be offended if you just skip to the pics! :) )

The Long Flight there...

This is Tuckers new thing, he loves to look like he's mad, and when he has you convinced, he starts to change his face to a smile and then laughs like crazy, he thinks he is so funny! Now, whenever I see him make this face, I say, 'I know there's a smile in there' and he immediately starts laughing.

After a long day of travelling, both Tucker and Grandma were tuckered out!
Actually, Tucker is a great Traveller. This is his 4th airplane trip. He has two visits to Grandma and Grandpa in Alabama, a trip to New York, and now this Utah trip under his belt! He's a world traveller, just like his mommy. (well, she would like to be) :)

Some Highlights of the trip were:

1.)Being with Kayla and Jason, and seeing their CUTE CUTE CUTE little apartment. They have made it so cute and it is just perfect for the both of them. I loved seeing them together and watching them interact as newlyweds and seeing how their life has begun! I am so happy for them! (didn't take any pictures, but wish I would have)

2.) The Pool/Hot Tub, for sure. I couldn't get this little fish out of the water, we went almost every night! He is going to have so much fun this summer!

He was my man all week long!

3.) The WAY cool dinosaur museum. I have some way cute pictures of Tuck playing in the kiddie area where they let them like dig in the sand to find little toy dinosaurs, but Auntie Kayla has them. Tucker was amazed/a little scared of the gigantic ones.

4.) Tucker pooping on the tile in our hotel room after his bath!(No picture, sorry. Poop isn't the greatest thing to photograph.)

5.) Receiving beautiful flowers from my thoughtful hubby, not once, but TWICE! It was so sweet.

6.)Losing my phone in Ross. My parents went back while I was at Lunch and walked around calling it over and over again, seeing if they could hear it ring. It never did. Luckily they called us when someone had turned it in!

7.) Just hanging out in our Sweet hotel. We had two bedrooms, two bathrooms, three TV's, a Kitchen and a living room! They also served us Breakfast AND Dinner! So, just hanging out in our Hotel was fun! We also rented 'Dan in Real Life'-Great flick! Tucker also rented us an 'adult' movie. Luckily I turned it off before it actually started playing. I then had to call the front desk for them to take it off of our bill.

8.) Eating out WAY too much! But I love my food! :)

9.)Going to Lunch with my friends, Kristi and Julie!

Kristi and her little guy, Boston.

It was a nice little break for me, and Grandma and Grandpa got to take Tucker for a much needed park break!

I loved this sequence of pictures, especially the middle one! I guess Tuck isn't a slide man!





10.) The cool Aquarium.

This is Tucker looking at the sharks, you can't see the sharks, but I thought that this was a cool picture of him off the glass. While we were looking at the sharks, a little kid came up from behind me and grabbed my leg thinking that I was his mommy. It scared the heck out of me. I jumped and screamed--Everyone at the Aquarium thought that that was pretty funny!


We got to pet all sorts of cool fish, including stingrays!

He has perfected his fish lips face!

11.)Last, but certainly not least: Temple Square.

I always love Utah trips for three things: new Scriptures, new Garments, and Temple Square!

Tucker and Jason had plenty of Staring contests...

And there was plenty of kisses going around all week!


And even though I was stuck in the backseat between these two all week:

This one to my Right

And this one to my left, and my dad was stuck with 3 backseat drivers, we had a GREAT week! Thanks Grandma & Grandpa for inviting us and SPOILING us ALL week long!
