We heart Utah!!!

We just got back from a trip to Utah to visit our families. It was so great to see everyone and we had a lot of fun. Justin had his spring break last week and we thought we would take advantage of his time off. Part of me wants to do 5 posts to catch up, but I think I'm better off not to really catch up from before I left. I'll just try to be better from here on out. Some of the highlights of our trip were...
*Seeing our parents and all of our siblings (except for my brother Bob, and we will see him tonight!).
*Meeting two new, beautiful nieces, Isabel and Olivia
* Justin blessing Gunner and my brother Jim blessing Isabel (we did the blessings in my parent's home)
*Seeing loved ones in Saint George and Salt Lake
* Family Pictures (I'll post them as soon as I get them)
* Gunner growing like a weed (He goes to the doctor tomorrow and I can't wait to weigh him).
* Gracie playing with cousins galore. She had so much fun.
* An Irish dinner on St. Pattie's day

Gunner and Isabel on their blessing day. I made his little suit-part of the reason why I disappeared from blogging a few weeks before we left.
Gunner and Olivia. I love that they were wearing blue and pink.
Tillie and Gracie on Buddy in St. George. We met up with Mary and Seth on their way to Disneyland.
Lizzie, Maddie, and Gracie doing dance performances in St. George.Justin, Me, Flori and Mary. He jumped into our sister's picture :)
My parents at our St. Patrick's day dinner.
Maggie and Gracie at the baby blessing. (I'll have to post more pictures of the blessing when I get my hands on them).

Your family is so cute! Way to make the blessing outfit. I'm very impressed. Kjersten has the same red shirt from Old Navy in that first picture. Glad you had a good time in Utah!

Those sure are cute babies!! I am so glad you stayed in Utah for so long so that we got a couple chances to see you and hang out. You sure packed in a lot the last 2 weeks!

What a great trip filled with all the best things. Gunner is cute. I can't believe you made his little blessing outfit. Amazing.

Cute pictures! That is so fun that Gunner has cousins so close in age. Looks like you had a lot of fun!

mags I don't think I knew you made gunner's blessing outfit. You are so awesome. It was fun to spend time with you here and I'm sure after 2 weeks you had a monster pile of laundry unless you did it before. :)
