SEXY minus 1

I had a great time visiting with my sisters and sister in laws in Utah. The main reason why I went to Utah was for Lana Nords baby blessing. Next time all us girls get together we will have to leave the babysitting to the guys and just hang out as girls without children on our side. That might be in a couple of years. Anyways, I wish Carolyn was there, it was a little too far for her to go from Costa Rica.

Cousins, Cousin, Cousins

More cousins and they are all boys. We stayed most of the time with Heather in Springville, so Keaton and Travis got to spend a lot of time with each other. There were a few battles, but they always made up easily and they are the best of buds.
Keaton,Travis,Dylan, and Michael were almost inseparable for a few days being silly and having way too much fun. Xander was always joining in on the fun, but his bed time was a little earlier.
Every morning Keaton would wake up asking to see his cousins and it felt so good to tell him, "yes". Family is such a blessing and I just wish everyone live a little closer to me so that I wouldn't have to drive solo to Utah and leave a wonderful husband and daddy behind at work allowing us to play.
Our wonderful next stop on our family extravaganza in Utah was the Wongs. Elias is atleast 6 years older than Keaton, but so loving to him and Xander. Elias took them under his wings and played with them the whole time we were there. What an awesome cousin.

LIfe with the Bandeaux's in Cedar City

As city people we don't get too much of this...we only see it as they are putting up another apartment complex. Keaton and Xander were all over this backhoe loader and loving it. It was like pulling teeth to get them out. The Bandeaux's sure know where the hot spots are in Cedar City, hahaha. We had a lot of fun with them, we had a hard time heading to our next destination to see more cousins.
The boys could spend all day outside especially where we were, they thought they were in heaven(boy heaven). There were horses, sheep,dogs,bulldozers,dirt;what more would a boy want? Auntie Jenine was so kind;) to let the dogs and Xander kiss, yuck, tongue and all.
The boys and I drove up to Utah and got to spend a few days in Cedar City with the Bandeaux family. The boys had a blast running around and playing with Trini and Mercedez.One day we got to eat lunch with Trini at her school and the next day we got Mercedez out of school to eat with her.
Auntie Jenine thought it would be funny if Keaton went to the school dressed up as Winnie the Pooh, so out she pulls the costume and puts it on Keaton. Keaton loved every bit of it, too bad I didn't get a picture of it. I think the children at school thought he was adorable and all the girls were playing with him. That is Keaton for you, always flirting with the girls.
Auntie Jenine was so nice to take the boys to ride Honey.
