Swimming Pool Fun

It was a great day to go swimming yesterday. We took Emma to the pool a few times last year and she loved it. This was her first time in the water this summer and it seems as though she still loves the water. We tried to get her to blow bubbles but we weren't having much luck with that yesterday.

Emma loved being thrown up in the air.

Playing at the Park

It has been a busy summer so far. Emma had tons of fun playing at the park one day.

She watched kids flying kites.

She played in the sandbox.

She played in the tunnel.

She went on the swings.

What a fun day at the park!

Kick-Off to Summer 2011

This past Friday, Andy and I finished our 3rd year of teaching in Park City. It's been a busy 3 years but it has all been worth it! To kick-off our summer vacation we went camping down in southern Utah, in the desert. Oh boy, was it ever hot! We spent 2 nights around the San Rafael Swell/Goblin Valley. Emma loved it!

What a helper!

Ahhhh...just chillin'

Emma loved playing in the sand.

We had a visitor!

Our home for 2 nights. We were trying to keep the sun

out of Emma's eyes, since she kept throwing her

hat on the ground.

Um, that shirt is supposed to be white.

Cooper got a little warm.

Emma spent about an hour putting pistachio shells in the bowl,

dumping them out, putting them back into the bowl, etc....

These shoes started out being pink.

Goblin Valley

Cooper's favorite hobby was lizard hunting. He didn't

have much luck.

Playing in the Sand Box

We are so lucky that Uncle Ben's new house has a sandbox (and a tree house--but that's for a little later down the road)! While Ben and crew unloaded the UHaul, Emma and I played in the sandbox.

Deck Time

Sunday Brunch

We went to brunch at our friend's house today. She has horses on her property so Emma loved looking at them. What a beautiful day!
