Trip to Midway

We went to Midway this weekend. It was a nice, last getaway before I start school tomorrow. We went up to Sundance and took the ski lift up to the top and hiked around. Hiking was a lot easier when I didn't have to carry a 25 lb. baby. It was beautiful up there as you can see by the pictures.Thanks Holli and Larry for inviting us!

The Homestead Resort where we stayed!

CHICKEN POX "A bad ending to a good vacation!"

Our last two day in San Diego Dylan was really fussy, and then Friday night he spiked a fever of 102.8. He hadn't been eating well or sleeping well and he developed a rash. His cousin Aubrey who went home on Wednesday was diagnosed with the swine flu, so I was worried. We took him to the ER at 3:00 am and he was negative for the flu, thank goodness. The Dr. just said it was a acute viral infection. Well he didn't get better and his rash got worse. I then put two and two together and realized that it was the chicken pox. Poor little guy, he has been miserable. A good vacation, bad ending!!

San Diego Look-out

We found the highest point in San Diego that gave us a 360 degree viewpoint. We could see all the way to Tiawana. If you zoom in on this picture you can see the San Diego Temple.

More fun in La Jolla!

This was at the seal beach. There were tons of squirrels just trying to get fed.

There was a lot of controversy in the news about this beach, because it used to be a kids beach, but now the seals have taken over. Some want to force the seals out and continue to have it a kids beach and others want to leave them be. Personally, I think they should let the seals have the spot, why do we humans have to take over everything?

These pictures are at the Padres baseball game.

Fun at the Beach

We spent this last week in La Jolla, California with my entire family! It was the first vacation that everyone was able to go on since we all lived at home together, which was a long time ago! We rented two beach homes and had 24 people, with 12 of those being children! My favorite day was when the guys went golfing and then the girls went and had pedicures and then went and made jewelry at the bead shop. Finishing off the day was swimming in the ocean. It was about 5:00 at night and it was high tide with huge waves. I just about died in two different waves. They pulled me under, dragged me and rolled me across the sand. The next day in the ocean was much better, the waves were a little calmer. I don't think I will try body surfing during high tide again.

I buried Dylan in the sand to keep him under control. It worked for awhile until he figured out how to get out.

Here is Peyton playing in the waves! The kids had so much fun!

Katelyn and Dylan enjoyed playing side by side stealing each others toys.

Whenever we left the beach, Dylan was covered head to toe in sand. I'm sure he ate plenty too.

Little Cottonwood Canyon

I love walking up in the canyons! Everytime I go up there I wonder why I don't do it more often!! In less than 20 minutes we can be out of the hussle and bussle of the city and enjoy the beauty of nature. The air is so much cleaner and fresher up there!

Dylan liked splashing in the cold water.

I wanted Bryan to take the pictures because I don't want Dylan to grow up and never see pictures of him with his mom. But now I feel bad that Bryan wasn't in any of the pictures.

Playtime in the Dishwasher.

Who knew Dylan could even climb? When I turned around from washing dishes in the sink this is what I found.
