More Utah Fun!

We've done a lot over the last few days. Scott's parents are at Girls Camp all week and so we've had to find ways to entertain ourselves. We visited Michael's gravesite on Monday with the boys. The last time we were there, Easton wasn't even 2 years old and Luke was about Max's age. We need to keep coming often to teach the boys that they have a brother in Heaven who they will see again someday. It was really neat to finally get to talk to Easton and Luke about Michael and they are starting to understand.

On Tuesday, my sister Allie and I took Easton and Luke to see the new Ice Age. It was cute, but Luke is still a little young and so I spent a good 30 minutes out in the hall with him so he could have his melt down.

Wednesday we spent all day out in Salem at Scott's parents house because we wanted to get a lot of work done for them while they are away. We cleaned, hung pictures, weeded, and dug out big mounds of dirt and leveled them out. It was a great workout!

Thursday we decided to take Trax up to Salt Lake and tour around Temple Square. The boys loved riding "the train" and they have never been up to Salt Lake before so it was great showing them the Temple, all of the statues, and seeing all of the displays in the visitors centers. We had a nice picnic on the lawn, and then went over to the JSM Building and went up to the viewing floor. After all of that, the boys had had enough and we took Trax back home. It was a really nice, really short visit to Salt Lake.





Last night, Scott was watering the lawn, and the boys decided it would be so much fun running through the sprinkler. I think its been the best 15 minutes of thier entire vacation. They just couldn't get enough! It was so much fun to watch them just be silly kids.
