Let the Summer Begin!!!



















We are certainly starting our summer off with a bang! We have been playing outside a lot lately now that the weather is finally nice enough. Anya played outside with the slip-and-slide at Grandma Huntsman's house with Carter and Jillian, and loved it! We have also been visiting the park a lot lately. If you look closely at the second picture you can see the beginnings of an allergic reaction to sunscreen! Notice her running nose and her eyes beginning to swell. Luckily, the doctors office is across the street from the park and we got her all taken care of. The next few hours were spent with a constant stream of tears and ruubbing red itching eyes! We spent our time Memorial Day weekend in Logan and Malad. We drove to Logan on Friday and went camping up Providence Canyon. Mark and Mckenna came up for a little while and then went home for the night.( I am still trying to figure out why 9-month pregnant Mckenna didn't want to sleep in a tent...) We then met up with them Saturday and took Anya to the Zoo. It was her first time at the Zoo and I think that she liked it. While we were there, there was this bizzare "snow-storm". It was actually cotton, but it was so heavy that at one point, we could barely see or breath. We tried to make "snow-balls" ,but they didn't work out so well. We then finished off our weekend with a trip to Malad with Jesse's family. Matt, Stef, Corbin, and Annie came and stayed the night with us on Sunday and then we drove down to Malad together Monday morning. Annie was the babysitter in the back, holding Corbin's bottle and feeding Anya crackers. She did a good job and kept them both entertained for the most part. Thanks Annie! We went to the memorial service and then had lunch at Great-Grandma Willie's. WE took Anya to see the sheep while we were there. She hated them!! We then went and saw the horses. It took her a bit, but she did finally warm up to them. She even let them eat out of her hand. It was a fun weekend. We are excited to go camping this weekend in Lyman, while we are there for Dave's graduation!!!

We were in Malad last weekend too. I am so sorry that we missed you. You guys should have come out to my Mom and Dad's and showed Anya the cows ;) Next time you come to Malad give us a call and we will come and visit.

What a fun beggining of the summer. Anya looks too cute. Does she like camping? How does she sleep? We are going on a small trek this summer and I am wondering weather or not to take Eliza. That is really crazy about the "snow storm", cotton makes me crazy!
