First Summer Vacation in Salt Lake City

We had a great time down in Salt Lake City visiting family. We did a lot of work but were also able to have some fun and go to the park with Stacy and her two girls Maren and Esme.


It was a little overcast but not too cold to go out after the park and jump on the tramp with swimming suits on. They had a blast jumping together. They are all the perfect size so they don't get flung all over the place by one another jumping.

The work that we did was on my Aunt Sara's backyard. It was pretty intense and I have to admit I didn't know if I wanted to get involved. But as we started working on it I realized it wasn't that bad and it was actually fun to visualize the possibilities of a section of dirt. If you want to see the actual process check out the link to Sara's blogpost here.  This is the final product. It looks so much better, a lot of hard work but worth it just to know that Sara now enjoys going outside into her fun and beautiful backyard.

All good things have to come to an end though and it was soon time for us to go home after our week of fun. Lily's face shows that she was upset to have to go home too. Until next time... :)

Fun pictures of the girls. I'm loving Lily's hair. We have a blue bird bath in our yard also and it looks exactly like the one in Sara's backyard. You guys do great landscaping. I'm sure that Sara is very thankful to have such great workers come and visit her.

I loved the pics of the little girls. They are all so cute and really do have lots of fun together. Thanks again for all of your hardwork. I have to spend sometime each day in the backyard. This morning I ate out there and we ate dinner out there again tonight and played a little catch. I truly love it.
