Fall Break in St. George

We had a very fun Fall Break in St. George! The Miles and Claytons joined us. We tried staying in Desert Color so we could enjoy the lagoon...and then the lagoon ended up being closed, haha. We still had a great time! This is when the trip started out by us not being able to figure out how to get into the house. We were locked out for a while.

Cutest cousins!

We snuck into the St. George Temple open house. Cutest cousins!

Group shot!

We took full advantage of the awesome pool.

Violet's love of Anna runs deep.

Lots and lots of Violet/Anna pics on this trip.

Cameron and Ben took the boys biking.

Abby is the sweetest aunt and Davis adores her.

We finished up with a fun hike.

Andy is very sweet to Carson.

Love my girl!

Violet's 7th Birthday

Our special girl turned 7 and we had the best time celebrating! (You can see in this pic how she turned the balloons into little babies by drawing on them with marker.)

I had the time of my life decorating these cupcakes.

We started out with doing pizza, presents, and cupcakes.

She loved getting this dog that pooped "for real".

Then we headed to the salon to get our hair and nails done!

It was a blast and the girls loved it.

We love our special girl so much.

On the morning of her real birthday!

One more stuffed animal to add to her giant collection. :)

On her actual birthday we surprised her by checking her out of school and taking her to lunch to Jersey Mikes, her favorite. I told the workers it was her birthday and it super embarrassed her, haha. :)

We got her nails done as part of her birthday presents.

Cameron's 20 Year High School Reunion

We had a fun weekend getaway to Sebastopol for Cameron's 20 year high school reunion.

Brendan Blake also flew in! We had so much fun spending lots of time with him. I think it's so cool he and Cameron have been friends for so many years.

Fun group to hang out with!

This van was parked near our hotel had and the sign really had us cracking up.

Yearbook memories.

We met up for breakfast the next morning and hung out at a park too.

Fun beach walk with Brendan.

Picture with Analy High School

On our last morning we did a fun hike in Santa Rosa.

View from the top! They call this Taylor Mountain. As Utahns, we thought it was more like a hill. :)

Love the uniqueness of Sebastopol! This was town square on a Sunday morning, just a bunch of locals gathered together to make some music.
