Catch Up...

I am so horrible at this blogging stuff. I love reading everyone else's blogs and getting a little peek into your lives. It just seems like our life doesn't have very many exciting things going on. However, we have had a very busy summer. Since our last post, Easter came and went. Gotta give you a peek of his cute little outfit.

In May our family went to Apache Lake for two seperate weekends. We love the lake so much, the best part is the boat. Aiden loves tubing with his aunts and uncle. He is like a big kid out on the water. Denny brought his best friend Johnny who we all love. This was his last official lake trip because he left on his mission to Chile just a month after we got home. I would have to say that the highlight of the trip may have been this gigantic dump truck we saw on the side of the road in Globe. We got out and Aiden was sooo excited. We took a picture of him standing in front of it and he looks at it all the time. He is so tiny next to this monsterous thing.

In June we went to Sea World with our best friends' the Summerhays. My BFF Amanda was 33 weeks pregnant when we went. We took advantage of the prettiness of the Ocean and took her maternity portraits at La Jolla Cove. It is So Beautiful there. Sea World was a blast. Aiden and his friend Brendan loved the fish and the dolphins. They loved watching the shows. I love the picture of Aiden looking into the glass. Look close... There is a polar bear in the midst. Oh so precious.

Just two weeks after we got home from California we left for Eric's family reunion in Salt Lake. We went to a temple open house while we were up there. It was so beautiful, especially the chandeliers throughout the whole Temple. The temple is the Mt. Okar. Not sure if I spelled that right, but in any case it is jaw dropping gorgeous. There were also fabulous views, the Temple was built on this great hill in the middle of a fancy neighborhood that I wouldn't mind living in. There is a stake center right across from it. It is so nice for those homeowners in the area, because instead of a park for the neighborhood to share they have a TEMPLE. From the front of the temple you can also look out and see two more Temples. The Draper and River Jordan Temple are not far.

On our way home from Utah we drove through Vegas. We had never been there before so we stopped and stayed a night. It was so much fun to walk the strip and visit all the cool site. Aiden really loved the water show at the Bellagio Hotel. And I love the picture of the Eiffel tower Eric shot.

Whew! I am glad this is all over and updated. I will try to keep more current from now on. Hope you enjoyed!
