Fun Weekend!!

We had such a great weekend! My Mom and Dad came to visit and we sure crammed a lot into their short trip.

Aliya made a countdown sign! While they were sick they slacked a bit, but she had linked 14 rings and they tore one off every day!

Baby Trey turned ONE and we had a cute Pirate themed birthday party for him at my house. He was so cute with the cupcake. He loved it, but he sure knew when he was done with it! Look at those blue eyes!!

The kids were diggin the pirate theme!

Of course we had to go to In n Out!!

Grant loves to take pictures with my phone.

On Saturday night I got a babysitter! I got to go to dinner AND a movie without kids. It was a lot of fun hanging out with my siblings and my mom and dad! We went to Olive Garden. The food was great! We even sat next to a vampire! He was no Edward though! The movie was not so good! Oh well! I was just happy to be out!

My Parent's left Monday morning. :( It had been two months since I had seen my Mom and probably about four months since I had seen my Dad, so it was really nice to be with them! After Neal had been gone all weekend, with school starting and Neal's tendency to work all of the time, we decided we needed some long overdue family time! We headed to Pine Valley Mountain for some hiking. We went on a fun, easy trail and played in the creek!

The water was freezing!!

I love that when I point to my cheek the boys know that it's time to give Mama kisses!!

Grant is always taking his sweet little time to explore. One of us always stays behind him or he will disappear to go follow a butterfly or inspect a rock. He is a curious little one!

Landon had a very difficult time staying on the trail. He wanted to climb every rock and look along down every edge!

He also took a lot of breaks! He loves his Cubs backpack so much and he didn't want to get it dirty.

Mommy's turn to walk with Grant! I only tripped about a half dozen times! My kids can walk better than I can.

Trying not to fall in!

Cute boys!!

We love hiking!!

"Come on guys, We have only been hiking for ten minutes."

We had a great day! I can't wait to do it again!
