Our trip to Utah.











































We had a great trip to visit family in Utah from 7/23 - 7/31/07. It was a very long travel day but we finally arrived in SLC around 11:00 p.m. on Monday. Poor Grandma and Grandpa were there to pick us up from the airport. We spent most of the day on the 24th just trying to catch up on rest and get accustomed to the time change. It was a fun day with Mitch and Kimberly and Andrea at dinner. We were able to see some friends, go to the zoo, go swimming a couple times and go to the park. Kira wore out Grandma having her "chase me" all around the basement. Kaylee loved her Grandma and Grandpa too. It was great being able to see Ryan and Michelle out there too. We really enjoyed the birthday dinner on Sunday and getting all the family together again.
It was so hard leaving again, as usual. We miss everyone so much! We had another very long travel day back but Kira and Kaylee really did pretty well. They were both worn out. Kaylee took a 4+hour nap the next day at home. I think she was pretty exhausted but it was so well worth it! We look forward to the next time we can visit again. We're still trying to get back into a normal routine at home but things are going well. Kyle was very busy first day back but that's to be expected.
I guess that's about all we have for now... Kaylee is very wiggly in my lap right now so I better run.
Love you all!
Amy
