Ahhhhh... vacation!

We are very fortunate that Brent gets the summer off from dental school, so we made the most of it with a month-long trip visiting friends and family.

Our first stop was to Denver to visit my friends Ryan and Laura; we were only able to stay for dinner, but it was so fun to see them! The next place was Laramie, Wyoming, where we stayed with friends Steve and Cass and their little girl, Taidyn.

Steve and Cass showed us a great time! We enjoyed the considerably cooler weather and went to the park for a community event. Drew got free snow cones and loved it!

Steve and Cass took us to a great little Mexican restaurant, and Brent had to cowboy up -- they brought him a 5 pound burrito! Amazingly, he finished it.




We spent a couple of weeks in Brigham City with my family. My mom took us to a children's museum where Drew got to play with musical instruments, blocks and trains.



We got to spend the 4th of July with my family, which was so much fun. We got to play games and enjoy a parade, then watch the fireworks at Pioneer Park. Drew didn't like them much.

Drew and Grandma...

Look at this face! This is "the face"...



Me and Brent at the fireworks...



We got to spend some time with my friends from high school and college. My friends Aimee and Kym brought their kids and we had a little zoo at Elisha's...



The great thing about Grandpa's house in July -- cherries right off the tree...



We also got down to Vegas during our trip to see our friends. Drew had to warm up a bit to the splash pad at the Town Square mall, but he really enjoyed it when he did...



We got to finish up with a week in Cedar City and some time in Albuquerque with my sister-in-law Angie. We had a great trip, and we're so glad we got to see most of our friends and family. Thanks for all the memories!
