Utah Vacation Part 2 !!!!!!

There were so many memories made this trip. I can't thank my parents enough for the amazing time we had once again. We love being in Utah and wish we could be there more often.
We had a carnival that included, two bouncy houses, Riding on four wheels, a cake walk, face painting, and ended the day with our pizza throw down and family variety show. It was the perfect day!
Drew's favorite part was the reward for winning the cake walk!

Zoe and her favorite cousin in the world, Merideth, did a Dance to "All the single Ladies." They were so cute. Liam did a head stand, but I didn't get my camera out fast enough to capture him.
I can't get over how much talent is in the Judd Family!


Our last day after Zoe had flown out to California we had the world's largest Slippery slide. Gavin didn't take his swim suit because he thought that he would just help set up and then watch. He just couldn't help himself! He's the one at the top going down on his feet. He didn't last long until he was soaking wet!




And to finish off the vacation we were able to capture it because of my oh so talented niece with a family picture. My parents still can't believe that this is their posterity. They never imagined. We are so blessed and lucky to be part of such an amazing and beautiful family!

We went to the copper mine. This is the tire to one of the trucks they use. We also got to see the only explosion of the day to loosen the dirt to get the copper. It was really amazing and windy!


We got to go the Oquirrh Mountain Temple open house in South Jordan. It was such an awesome experience to be there as a family and know that we have the blessing of being sealed as an eternal family. The kids were amazed. It was one of those moments that we will treasure forever. It was also nice to reminisce about when Gavin and I were sealed with the kids being present. We have been so blessed!





We had a girls day out with all my nieces. All of the girls got their hair done. Here is Zoe with her beautiful up-do! I just love her!

Happy 4th of July!

What a fourth this has been! We have had nothing but fun. We've been at my parents house for the last almost 2 weeks. You name it, we've done it. I'll post pictures later. But for now I just wanted to take in this moment of watching our children do fireworks, listening to patriotic music, sitting on my parents front porch and feeling a sense of gratitude for our freedom! Happy 4th of July to all!
