Utah trip - week 1

So I am FINALLY getting to posting the pics from when we went to Utah last month, and let me just warn you that there are a TON of them. There would have been a ton more, but I had to cut it down because it was starting to annoy even me, so I can only imagine how annoying it would be for anyone else. Anyway, here we go:

Hotel in Boise. This is Porter "sleeping". If he can see us/anyone then he is too distracted to sleep. He is in his porta crib and we tried to maneuver the curtains so he couldn't see us...obviously it didn't work too well.

Potty break and a chance to stretch our legs on the drive to Utah. Porter seriously has the most awesome run.

Went to the park with the fam a few times.

There's a little creek in my parent's backyard so what do kids like to do there but throw rocks in it of course.

Porter's first time bowling.

Had a BBQ and a fire pit in my uncle's backyard. Tom looks absolutely thrilled.

My sexy brother Brian.

Currently the youngest grandchild. Can we say cute?

There's nothing better than eating smores with a gigantic pink marshmallow.

Craft time. My sister-in-law Mia rocks in that area.


The kids table for dinner at my parent's house, using the placemats that they made at craft time.

The treasure hunt begins! Totally awesome idea - way to go Mia and Michelle.

Finding one of the treasure chests.

On the hunt for more. My grandma has a big garden/orchard behind her house where the treasure hunt took place. The street behind her house is where my mom and two of her brothers have built their houses. I would LOVE to live that close to my siblings...but of course I say that now.

Quick shot of the hunters. This is all the grandkids except for my 10 month old nephew.

At the end of the treasure hunt with all their loot.

Gotta have a pic of the treasure map.

Then after the treasure hunt they had a surprise baby shower for me set up inside. Sneaky people. I was totally surprised. Of course it was like the one day I didn't wear make up so that's why there are no pics of me. Thanks for all the gifts!!


My cute parents.

At my mom's side annual family reunion at the Homestead. My sister Melinda with her sons Jeremy and Dillon.

My sister Karen, her husband Stephen and their son Zenden.

One hot family! Apparently we didn't get pics of all the other families when they were sitting together. We were too busy eating, ha ha.

Lots of swimming took place.

All the grandkids. Yes, this was the best picture that we got. Top row: Zenden, Dillon, Jeremy and Porter. Bottom row: Brooklyn, Jamison, Claire and Gavin.

Cute!

After the annual Callister reunion we always have a little BBQ at Sugarhouse Park for the Johns reunion, which is my grandma's family. By this time a couple of my siblings and their families had to head back home.

At the reunion there was a creek, so what did the kids do?? Why, throw rocks in it of course.

I just like how the sky looks in this pic.

So that was the shortened version of week one. Coming up, week 2!
