Happy Birthday Mommy!

Today, we celebrated Mom's 29th birthday. We did lots of fun stuff; but most importantly, Daddy took the day off to hang out with us! We went to our Mommy and Me class at The Little Gym and then they took me to get my first haircut at a place called Cookie Cutters. I have to say that I actually had fun...I got to sit in an airplane and watch Elmo while someone blew bubbles at me. I hardly even noticed that someone was cutting my hair. Then later that afternoon, we went up to the Gateway (an outdoor mall) in Salt Lake. Mommy and Daddy indulged in some yummy sushi (that's Mommy's favorite food), and then we went to the water feature where I got to run around and get soaking wet. Wow, that was fun!
Then on Friday night, Daddy invited some friends over to have cake and ice cream. I hope Mommy had a wonderful birthday...we love you!!!










Oh yeah!




I got to see a horsey!


Daddy thought he'd be funny and switched the numbers...ha, ha!

Sunday Hikes

Every Sunday we try to go on a hike somewhere up in the canyon.  It's such a great family bonding activity and has become a highlight of my week.  

On this particular sunday, we decided to hike the trail to Stewart Falls.  And I have to say this is one of my favorites...it's filled with groves of aspens and pines, and covered with lush ferns and flowers.  It's a refreshing escape from the Utah Valley desert.  Then like a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, the trail opens up to Stewart Falls, a beautiful waterfall that makes the 1.5 mile trek worth every step....


















Ahhhhhhhhh........

Happy 4th of July!

Happy 4th of July!  Hope everyone had lots of watermelon and fireworks!

For our 4th of July, Grandma Georgia and Reid came to visit. We did lots of really cool stuff.  We went to a picnic with a huge bouncy red thing, and then we went for a drive on the Alpine loop through Sundance, and Mommy and Daddy ran a 10k race at the Freedom Festival.  I didn't get to see fireworks because it was my bedtime, but Mommy and Daddy did.  Bet they were really cool!
It was so nice to see Georgia Grandma and Reid.  Can't wait to see them again! 





Mommy and Daddy did really well at the Freedom Run.  Mommy ran it in 1:04:34 and Daddy ran it in 44:35.  Way to go! 



Here are pictures from the picnic...



This is the big red bouncy thing I was telling you about...




These pictures are from our drive on the Alpine Loop and Sundance...









I would like add a heartfelt THANK YOU to all of those that have sacrificed their lives for me and my family's freedom.  I am so grateful to live in such a wonderful country.  God Bless and Happy Birthday America!

Father's Day in Colorado

Mommy and Daddy wanted to surprise Grandpa Calley for Father's Day, so we drove to Colorado for the weekend! 

We had a super fun time... went on a hike, walked in a pet parade and watched Daddy play "cornholio" ball with my Uncles and nephew, Brodrick.  

And as always, Mommy took tons of pictures...

Here's one of the doggies from the pet parade....awww.
