The boys and I headed to Utah the day after Christmas. I had decided before going out there that I wanted to have a family-only visit this time. I love getting together with friends and catching up, but I always feel like I'm trying to fit too much in when we visit. It was nice to just relax with my family for a week. Plus, everyone basically had the whole week off from work which NEVER happens when we visit!
Highlights of the trip:
Eating at all the bad-for-you places I love
A quality afternoon with the Herways, Herways, and Stouts
Sledding at Sugarhouse Park
Tubing at Soldier Hollow
A Bluth family party and my parents house with extended family
Wedding dress shopping with Tates

| Goodnight hugs with Nana and Grandpa |

| My mom and dad remodeled their kitchen/family room and added on. They added this darling breakfast nook. |

| Trip to Scheels. |

| Looking the part in his camo coat. |
 |
| We saw "Saving Mr. Banks" and I fed my pregnancy cravings. For the record, I have always thought Red Vines were gross until like 3 months ago. Now, I LOVE them. |

| So inappropriate but he was so excited to show everyone his new CTR ring he got in Primary at the parents' ward. He just chose the wrong finger. |

| Target practice with Grandpa. My brother sent my dad and the boys Nerf guns for Christmas. They were a major hit. I think Grandpa liked them the best. |

| Tubing at Solider Hollow. I loved this!! This is a must do next time we're here in the winter again. |
Everyone knows these boys can be pretty cautious at times. I was shocked that they BOTH insisted on going down the sledding hills by themselves. They go pretty fast!

The sledding is awesome...they really do go fast! I just took Brauer and Levi to the mall today and we did the train too. I know what you mean about trying to fit too much into the vacation in Utah. Way too many people to see and too much to do!
Fabulous updates! I thoroughly enjoyed it all!
What a great trip. I like that your brother got a nerf gun for your dad too. Cute.
Just got caught up and wanted to say you have such a beautiful family. Your boys are so handsome and you look amazing. I hope you guys are well. I've heard a lot of good things about tubing at Solider Hollow, but we've never gone. Guess we should try it out.
Love the shot of your dad and Taft firing away!
