Utah is cool

So we're in Utah, and I thought I let y'all know what we've been up to...

The plane ride over wasn't the greatest, but thanks to Toy Story we made it in one piece :)


My sister was so kind to pick us up. We thought it was fun to see our 5 kids altogether in her van. Vans are cool.

Discovery park in P.G. We met up with my cousin Roseanne. She's moving to Kansas so it was fun to see her and little Wyatt.
This is Owen and Mack, they are 5 months apart, but it's so funny to see their difference in size.



Abby's Thayer Girl cousins. Heather, Lily, Abby, and Anna, all born within a year of eachother.

The boys playing a little Kan Jam

Mimi always has new fun things to play in/with at her house!

We had 2 days where every Thayer was together so we took a bunch of family pictures. Thanks to many candy sucker bribes and photo shop, my sis-in-law Katie was able to get a great picture :)






Abby and Max. Poor Max was the only boy born during the "girl era". He is just 2 months younger than Abby.

We couldn't resist putting Owen in a speedo. Just couldn't.


Mimi rented a huge jump house with a slide. This was definitely a hit with the kids.





Uncle Paul showed the kids how to chop firewood so they could make s'mores!

Mike's family made him a flare tip tower cake for his birthday. Very creative. (it's a project he's working on with his job)


We had a fun time up at South Fork. We played lots of games, threw rocks in the river, and ate a yummy picnic.












Girls night with my sister and sis-in-laws. California Pizza Kitchen was delightful. Carrie order a pear and gorgonzola cheese pizza, and although it sounds weird, it taste super yummy.

We all got glitter toes :)

And we ate a really delicious dessert.
Did you notice food was the main activity of the night? Good food = good times.

I'm on a boat!
Brian and Monica took us out on Deer Creek. So fun! The kids loved it.


Abby was pretty afraid of the tube ride at first, but by the end she was happy :)


My niece Brooklee had the cutest licorice face!


We went to the Dinosaur Museum. It was $2 tuesday so it was pretty crowded, but it was fun.


Hope this tides you over for a while mom :)

What happens when the mailman falls out of his truck?

The other day Mike and Garrett took the kids next door to the neighbor's lot to play in the sand box. All of a sudden they look up and see a mail truck come blazing down the lot with the mailman running after it! Come to find out, he was delivering mail and leaned a little too far out the truck. He fell out and his foot slipped off the brake, and the rest is history. Pretty crazy stuff. Luckily the kids were playing off too the left so they were unharmed.
