Our Time in Utah
We spent an amazing week in Utah visiting family. Our time there was great. I loved the opportunity we had to reconnect with Moe and Angela. The boys did boy stuff and us girls took a day to do some canning. Canning was a first for me, but I had a great teacher and I have already ordered my own canning stuff. I am so excited to start canning and building our food storage. The main and most important reason why we traveled 12+ was to meet Moe and Angela's little new addition, Dante and to be a part of his blessing. The blessing was beautiful and I was able to feel the spirit as I listened to the words Moe spoke. We had delicious food every single day... those guys can cook. I was also so very lucky to go on a few runs out in the beautiful country. My runs in Bakersfield will never be the same, no red foxes, no horses, no cows, no green everywhere and even no flies. My running partners also made the difference. Angela, Kenya and Naomi were so fun to run with. The kids and Phillip rode horses one evening, they had so much fun. Our girls belong in the country, they were so happy out there. They had fun feeding the cows some grass, feeding bunnies and jumping on the trampoline. We also went to a small zoo and fed some ducks. We picked up some pictures of Jesus Christ for the kids' bedrooms and are already up the wall, they look perfect and it makes their room feel complete. We watched movies when the kids went to bed and had a good laugh watching Parental Guidance.
We also visited grandma Betty on our way to Moe's and back. We had a very pleasant time chatting with her and the girls got way to much candy from her :)
Moe and Phillip took the girls on a field-trip with Naomi. Maya was disappointed she didn't see any animals, but still ha a good time.
Maya didn't like the sun on her face thus this cry baby face.
I love Lincoln's cute, chubby face in this picture.
Moe and Phillip are funny together, here is their Mexican, serious picture.

Thanks for coming!!! We miss you so much! Naomi told me this morning that she had a nightmare last night about Lincoln. She said that she was in a car with you and Lincoln. One moment Lincoln was there, the next...there was only a car-seat base and an empty car seat sitting out in the road!! She said that she saw a car driving with a baby in back but wasn't sure if it was Lincoln or not. She said with a smile on her face, "Mom I'm not sure how I did this but, I ran to the car and yelled "Stop!" and then put my arms around the front part of the car and held it so that it couldn't move!" I think her dream ended there because she told me that she just focused on something else so that she could get out of the scary dream...Hopefully Lincoln wasn't kidnapped for long!!!! She tends to have a lot of those kind of dreams about Dante as well and coming to the rescue, what a sweetheart. Also, so excited that you are planning on canning! Seriously fun and rewarding :) I hope we will have another canning party in the future!
