Camp Utah 2011

On the day after we got to Utah, Calee and I went to work at the furniture consignment store, she is showing the shelf that she helped me decorate. It was so fun to have her there with me. She went to get some lunch with Tracee. Then before we closed, she went to the snow trailer to get a ice slushy, Yummy!! The boys went to play with Keeton and Maloree.






Later that night we went home and played games in the yard with Tracee and Matt.







On Friday night we went to the park to wait for fireworks to go off at dark, that night Keeton joined us for a sleep over.









Then on Saturday, we went to the Centerville parade.












Lots of fun watching in the hot sun, but lots of candy!















Then over to the park where the kids rolled the wheel to get a prize.













Calee had a friend, Lauren, with us at the parade and then over to the store where they bought some treats for some dogs she knows.

















Cute friends...



















Grandpa helping Gavin put together a fun helicopter model, and Brock coloring cars...






















We went to Grandma and Grandpa Adams' house on Monday to visit with them and help put up some decorations that Grandma Adams wanted to have up.















Before we went home we had a picture taken of the day we had with them...























Then for our 4th celebration we went to Uncle Rugers house to play with his go carts...and have a barbecue together. Love to be together with our wonderful Forever Family!!

Today we went to the Thanksgiving Point dinosaur museum, where lots of big scary bones and artifacts were, it was fun, after we could get Calee into the room. I watched some really little kids go in, then I just thought, if those babies can do it, she can too...
In this room we were looking at the exhibits that you can interact with...






















More experiments...

Posing with the big dinosaur...
