Busy Week

On Monday, Auntie, my sister April flew into Vernal. The boys were so excited! She stayed the week with us. We made pumpkin shaped sugar cookies, pigged out on M&M's and nacho's (weird combination), and carved a pumpkin with the boys. Garrett was able to spend one on one time with Auntie because Jackson was at school. He really became attatched to her. Then on Friday after Jackson got out of school we headed to Salt Lake for a hearing aid appt. for Hannah Lu. Everything went well. She is hearing at a normal level with her hearing aids on. We are so thankful for that. After the appt. we headed up to Lagoon to meet Shawn's brothers and Auntie Amy, and Gabriel for FRIGHTMARES! We had lots of fun. A couple days before, we were looking at rides on line and found out that Jackson is tall enought to ride almost all of them. He was excited, or so I thought. When we got there he wouldn't go on anything. Auntie managed to get him on the pirate ship with everyone. From what I hear his face was priceless. Then Uncle Nicholas physically put him on the bat and I sat next to him. Of course he liked when he got off. But we could not get him on anything else, other than the airplanes, and the helicopters in kiddie land. Oh well, maybe next year. Garrett on the other hand, if he was tall enough he would go on every ride in that park. For some reason though, for a child with sooooo much personality, he would not smile for anything on the rides. It was hillarious. So below are some pictures of the kids at Lagoon. On the right of the picture is Garrett and Amy on the pirate ship

Hannah Lu not very happy. I figured it out though, with her glasses and hearing aids on it was too stimulating for her because she is not used to all of the comotion going on around her, so I took them off and she went to sleep.

On Saturday we took Auntie to the airport. Garrett was not happy about Auntie going home. He wanted her to stay at our house. The minute we exited the freeway to the airport his bottom lip came out and he would not look at her because he didn't want to cry. It was really cute. He gave her a big hug goodbye and she proceeded to go into the airport and he couldn't hold it in anymore he just waled. He cried all the way to Bountiful to my friends house.

We went to my friend Amy's house. I hadn't seen her forever. Our friend Kara came up too. It was really fun to catch up and watch the kids play together. I only with we lived closer so we could do that more often. Kara, Amy and I lived together before we were all married. Those were the good ole days! We didn't take any pictures what were we thinking. Anyways, thanks for meeting up with us around my crazy schedule, it was fun to see you guys! Hope to see you sooner than later.
