Utah!!!

We took an amazing trip to Utah during the end of April/first of May.  We were able to pack in Mark's 30th B-Day, Easter, my Dad's 50th B-Day, and the blessing of Mark's niece in one week.  Not to mention all the other fun things we did. 

 Surprise birthday party for Mark the day we landed.

Quite a few of his family came for his birthday.  His mom flew in from Seattle and his brother Jon and his family drove up from CA.  Plus Sus, Brig, and Neal and their families live in the Salt Lake area so they were able to come too.

 Followed by an Easter Egg hunt the next morning...

On to the zoo!

 

Next, we headed to Beaver to play in Grandma and Grandpa's yard and with cousins

 Then on to St. George

Too much excitement...Dallan fell asleep on the way to the pool

 Riding bikes in Snow Canyon National Park

 followed by eating a picnic lunch while we played in the sand dunes

This was in incredible trip!  We were able to see so much family and had such a great time.  I didn't get any pictures of the baby blessing, my Dad's birthday, or pouring the footings of Shawna and Reggie's new house but we did that too.  I was also able to go to lunch with some of my friends.  What a great trip that we will never forget!  Thanks to everyone that helped put together Mark's party, took us around to different places, watch our kids, planned all the fun things to do, and made such an effort to spend this great time with us.  We love and miss you all!
