Trip to Utah

Here is Jerry practicing his best presidential impersonation.

WARNING: PICTURE OVERLOAD!!!

We were able to go up to Utah for a fun, fall vacation. It worked out great because Jerry had to fly to Ohio for work on Tuesday, so he took off the previous Thurs. and Fri., then was able to fly out of SLC on Monday, but that was considered a travel day so he didn't have to take it as a day off. I was originally going to stay until Thursday, but I wasn't looking forward to the drive, and by staying till Friday I was able to see my brother and sis.-in-law, Dave and Jana, and two of their kids, Jayden and Meghan that came from Colorado to see Rachel at BYU's parent's weekend. It was a great trip. We had our annual Halloween party, which was great. (I'll do a whole post about that.) We also went to Hill Air Force Base. Hayden loved seeing all the big planes. It was just great to be with family and for the kids to play with their cousins that they don't see as much.

Rebecca was excited to try driving to Utah.

Hayden and his cousin, Ethan. What cuties.

The three of them had fun playing alphabet games on Starfall.com (one of my favorite kid sites.)

Hayden was amazed at how huge those wheels were.

Hayden in a jet seat. This is his favorite new face to pull.

Once again, his favorite new silly face to pull. Do you think he's related to his mom???

He had a blast climbing on the rocks in Grandma and Grandpa's backyard - which is usually illegal, but we're rule breakers. He's such a cautious little boy I knew he'd be fine, especially since Rebecca was asleep and not watching and getting ideas.

My kids LOVE babies. Anytime Baby Alex was around Hayden and Rebecca were glued to him, and usually very soft. That was so good to see, and made me excited to see how they'll be with their new baby sister.
