May Family Adventure Part I: Road Trip!

Frankly, this would've been enough adventure for me.



We went to the library. And the walking trail a mile from our house.

However, luckily for those of us who don't want to be hermits, we decided to get out of town to celebrate the end of school and Memorial day.

The trip down was really long, but went okay overall. I wrapped a bunch of dollar store toys for when Leah started to go crazy, and they saved the day more than once.

Once we got to St. George we packed the days full of fun.

The splash pad and river at the town square.




A trip to Judd's for penny candy, funded by  the ever-doting Grandpa.

A family picnic in the back yard.


And in honor of our newest addition, little Asa, Abbey brought from-scratch Nutella cupcakes with delicioso frosting topped with chocolate mustaches! Almost too cute to eat - almost.

Tree-climbing

Asa's one month birthday. Grandma took some great photos of him to celebrate his big day.


A hot date to the temple and Swig for Nate and I. We're on the fence about Swig, by the way. We should've gotten chocolate chip instead of sugar cookies, I think, and also, who drinks sugary slushy drinks with sugary cookies? Not us, usually. So the jury's still out. It'll require further testing.


Grandma showed us pictures of her mom and we went to visit her grave on Memorial Day.


 An attempt to reproduce my favorite picture of all time, plus one more set of feet. Not totally successful.


Ice cream!

Sky was at Grandma and Grandpa's house while we were there, so she and the kids had fun hanging out.

A great, great adventure. And that's not even all. Stay tuned for part II!
