Well we had lots of fun hitting all the cool kids spots in Utah, but most of our time was spent just hanging out, swimming, eating, relaxing, and playing with the cousins. We really miss the swimming pool. Car was a little fish. He liked swimming around all on his own, floating around with the big kids. He never wanted to try it without his floaties though.



Can you see the terror on cars face? Not his favorite activity..




Quin didn't like the swimming as much as she liked the eating. That girl is always eating.



Every lunch time was by the pool. Sammy's always taste yummier out there.



One day Quin wanted carsons "cumber". Now she has one just about every day. Never would have thought of that one for quin...



and like I said before, she was a watermelon monster. This picture kind of makes me sick. What a sticky mess..



This was another one of cars obsessions on the trip. Grampas helicopters....



My sisters told me to get a picture of this. Too bad it is super blurry. Yummy barbeque's, I miss you.



We went night swimming a few times too. Sooo fun.



one night during swimming we took a s'mores break.





and back to the pool to wash off the fire smell.



Time for bed when the kiddo is in tears from too much fun.



And last but not least, one day carson REALLY wanted to go outside. He kept begging and begging, and I kept ignoring. I was tired. Finally he took matters into his own hands and put his shoes on all by himself. For the very first time.

How can you argue with that? Didn't he do such a fine job?




THE END.

ooooh those swimming pool shots are amazing. I haven't been swimming once this summer (I know! What a crime) and I feel so refreshed looking at your pictures that I don't even need to go.

Fabulous pictures, as always.

Those are the most inspiring summer pictures ever. I'm loving all the eating, swimming, and especially that tall man/little chair pic! haha!

We didn't over lap our Utah trips as I would have been devastated if that happened. I was back Utah June 21-29....uhhhh, we didn't over lap, did we?

Lesley-

I don't think I went swimming once when I was in NY either. Just didn't seem like a swimmin place for some reason... :)

Jana-

We didn't over lap. Luckily. I was totally just teasing you.

I'm somewhat of a fish myself and all that pool time looks HEAVENLY, especially the night swimming, oh how I love night swimming!

So glad to see you're enjoying your summer!

Oh, and you should definitely go check out the Olympic Peninsula - Salt Creek was great car camping with kiddos but my all time fave is 1st or 2nd Beaches where you can actually camp right on the beach. Can't beat that!
