Our Happy Family: July 2011

In July we were able to go visit family in Utah. We had such a fun time and we miss family very much!! Here are a few of the fun things that we were able to do while we were there.

Grandpa Cutler's 100th Birthday Party-

My grandpa Cutler's 100th birthday was on the 11th of July. Although he is no longer with us, we still were able to celebrate his life on this day. We were able to get together with all of the family on the Cutler side and have a wonderful party. The kids were in heaven with a bounce house and kept them all pretty busy.

It was also nice to visit with my cousins on that side. We dont see them very often so it was nice to catch up and have them meet Kinley. :D Here are a couple pictures I got of this day.

Aunt Liz meeting Kinley for the 1st time.

Aunt April meeting Kinley. :D

Fun Bounce house.. and yes Kris was in there jumping with all the kids. :D

Seeing great friends-

It was so sweet of my good friend Lynette to come see me the day that we were leaving to come back home. She made such an effort to come to Kinley's blessing. (She was driving home from CA the night before and only got 4 hours of sleep.) I sure miss her and her cute girl Haley. As you can see Abi and Haley hit it right off.

Going to Lagoon-

We were able to go to Lagoon with the Harrop family. This was such a fun day. Our girls did so good and loved the rides. Abi's favorite ride was the Scaliwags. She went on this ride over and over again. (Thanks April for your help!) Next to that her favorite ride was the carousel. She loved to ride the horse. :D Here are a few pictures of Lagoon.

Abi just loving her ride!

If you look close you can see how scared Abi is.

Man before I know it she will be in a real car.

Maybe one day she can drive a real boat and pull me behind on ski's.

Chuck E Cheese-

Before going out to Utah we bought a Groupon to use at Chuck E Cheese. We were able to get a pizza, drinks and tons of tokens. :D Abi loved playing all of the games. Here are a few pixs.

Daddy loved this game. I think he won over 500 tickets off this game. Abi was so excited when she saw all the tickets coming out. Thanks to Daddy Abi got some pretty sweet prizes this time.

Silver Lake-

We were able to go up Big Cottonwood Canyon and go to the very top to Silver Lake. This was such a fun place to go back to. This is where Kris proposed to me. :D Now 6 years later we go back with two girls. Oh how time flys. The mountains were so pretty and made me realize how much I really miss them.
