Fun Times!

We made it back from Texas! We had a great time and we are so thankful that Ben and Allison let us stay with them! Thanks! Josh got a job offer so we will be moving back next summer. We have been getting settled back in at home and keeping busy with fun activities, which is why there hasn't been a post for awhile. One of the most recent activities is hanging out with Josh's family for Labor Day weekend. We started out by having a picnic at the park.

Grandpa and the kids found a fun bench on our little walk.

Avery loves to go down the slide! It is her favorite thing to do at the park. She usually tries the swing once while were there, but she immediately asks to get down. I don't think she likes the motion.

In Texas we went swimming all the time! It gets so hot that you have to. (Of course we don't mind.) When we got back to Provo we realized that there aren't many places to go swimming. Thankfully Emily and Maddy have a pool and invite us to swim a few times a week.

We really missed the mountains in Texas so we want to take advantage of them while we have them so close. We went up for dinner and smores with Nate and Emily. We had a good time but didn't take many pictures.

On our way home from Texas we stopped in St. George for a few days to visit Josh's family. We got to go out on the boat. Avery loved to drive, and she's a good driver, with "Pa's" help of course. (Avery calls all of her grandparents "Pa". It doesn't matter if it's grandma!)

When Avery was in the boat she kept wanting to get in the water. She got in and didn't like it at first because it was colder than she expected. Once she warmed up she liked it better.

Avery even got to ride on the tube with Dad! She did great!


We were only on the lake for a few hours but she couldn't last. She even slept until 10:15 the next morning. She just had too much fun!
