Fun in the SUN!

Yesterday we spent the afternoon with uncle Tysen and Grandma and Grandpa. We played and went swimming it was so fun. Here is Tysen pulling Calvi around the house while we were getting ready to go swim! It was so funny to watch calvin just hangin out in the back of his raft just lovin Tysen pulling him.
Today we went to Rigby lake with jill and kyle, brooke, domino and clara it was so much fun as you can see. Clara had more fun playing in the sand/ mud than in the water!
Tyler had this great idea to put the stroler in the water and have calvi just sit in the water. He LOVED it! it was so funny calvin would just kick around and watch everyone.
I have this huge huge ball that we were throwing around it was really fun, Clara couldnt even really play with it! We had a great time and on the way home we got an ice cream cone yum!!

Last of Trip

So here we are a cute family pict! Those dont happen to often so i love every one!
We hiked to the dixie rock and it was a super sweet lookout! Tyler wished he didnt have such a bum leg, or he would have been all over climbing those red rocks.
Here we are just headed back it was i nice little hike, we could drive up most of the way so not to much work for such a great view!
On the way back home we stopped to hang out with Uncle Andy! He took us out to lunch at a super great sandwich place we LOVED it! Thanks Andy, Calvin also thought he was pretty cool!
And her is little Clara, this is not part of our trip but she is just so silly, crazy hair and all! I love her big eyes just lookin at me.

More on our trip!

We went skim boarding on a river. It was really fun and this was calvins favorite spot to go swim cause it was super shallow! He just sat in the water and kicked away! he LOVED it!
On Sunday we went to tour Brigham Young's winter home. It is really neat to look at all the old stuff that was there.
We also went to the St. George temple and to the visitors center. There was a lot of fun stuff to look at there and it is cool how they built things back then.
Here we all are in front of the temple. Weird that we were all wearing yellow shirts! ha ha!!
And yes there were palm trees we had to have a picture! I wish palm trees grew everywhere, they are so awesome, probably because i didn't grow up by them!

St. George Vacation

Here is our little guy hangin out in a pool. This last weekend we went to St. George Ut. to hang out with some of our friends Alisha and Braedon. It was so much fun and so so so hot! like 110!! crazy compared to what we are use to here in Idaho with highs in the 80!
Here is Calvi he is so tubby! He is growing so fast! Calvin loved swimming we went a few times cause it was perfect weather for it!
Here we are at Zions National Park! It was really fun to ride up through the canyon on the shuttle, we stopped a few spots along the way to see the sights! I loved the red rock , new plants and other stuff we dont see here in Idaho.
Here we are at the Weeping rock! It was really awesome cause there was water dripping out of the rock, it was like it was raining under the rock. This was one of the many cool things we saw there. I would love to go back and do some more hikes and explore it more!
Here is Alisha hangin out with Calvin. We had so much fun being with the Cooks! Thanks so much! There are more picts they will come soon i can only do so much blogging in 1 day!

4th of July weekend!!

OH hey guys!!! It is me Calvin. I know this strand of drool might freak some people out but i think he is so cute. He has been just hangin out in a diaper around the house cause it has finally been so HOT!!
For the 4th we stayed in Rexburg for the day. In the morning we went to calvins first parade it was pretty cold outside but way fun. Then we took a nap and headed to Idaho Falls to watch the fireworks. We met some friends down there here we are waiting for the show! Ty and I also stopped by my Gmas house and we saw some family there it was a fun day.
Here is Ty and Calvin just hangin around it ended up being a really nice day it was not to hot and not to cold it was just right!
After the fireworks show we headed to Twin Falls. We got there way early in the morning and on Sunday we went to Laynie's blessing. She was so cute in her little dress. After church we went to have a big bbq with the family it was so good to have all kinds of yummy food. After the bbq we went back to my parents house to hang out. Calvin got his first 4 wheel ride with Grandpa!!

Tyler also took him for a ride he like it at least i think he did, he smiled and didnt cry! That night we sat on the porch and roasted ji-gantor marshmallows and watched all the fireworks from Twin we saw at least 10 shows going on it was awesome. It was a fun weekend and now we are preparing ourselves for the busiest week on the summer!!! more to come soon!
