St. George!

Wow it has been a while since I have blogged! Here is one of the many posts I need to get up on here.... The first week in June we went with Keith's family down to St. George for a graduation vacation. With Keith, Keith's dad and brother in law all graduating this year within a week of each other we all decided we really needed to celebrate. Keith's parents found this awesome place to stay called Coral Springs. There was hardly anyone there and it was beautiful!! We had such a great time and Carsen did surprisingly well with the drive. We had to rig up a little toy string for him in the back seat, which I forgot to take a pic of.... darn! (It was pretty inventive! oh what you will do to make a baby happy!)

We were all loving the weather, the swimming and the relaxing! Carsen loved playing in the pool. I think we spent a good majority of our time in there :) The heat kinda took it out of him and he was pretty funny at how tired he would get. He was so good to drink lots. We went up to Zion's national park one of the days, it was beautiful and lots of fun but wore us all out pretty quick with the heat. We had a great time and are looking forward to another vacation :) Thanks Kent and Marsha!!!
On the emerald pools hike, so pretty!!
Carsen's first ice cream cone! It was so hot, I couldn't not give him some!
Soooo hot! 104 F
I love my boys!!
He had so much fun!! I love this picture he is so happy
Carsen loved his little floaty. He had a little more freedom to kick and more around more than he would if we were just holding him :)

I have so many things in my mind that I could go on forever about how much I love this little man and all the new and cute things he is doing.
