What a weekend!

After work on Thursday, we drove down to Park City, UT where we met up with my parents, sister and brother-in-law, Nana and Papa, Aunt and Uncle and their kids to stay in this BEAUTIFUL vacation home! It was AWESOME! Instead of staying in separate hotel rooms, my parents thought it would be fun to rent a house and be all together--and it was so fun! The house was huge, allowing everyone their own room and bathroom, and there was a hot tub, pool table, game room full or arcade games and air hockey. The house was in Deer Valley. Which was great--I love Park City area--but Heather's 8:00 graduation in Provo wasn't so much fun..!
It was great, thanks mom and dad for such a great weekend in such a fun place!!

My cousin, Ava, who was born two months before Isaac had a fun time with each other!! I love watching Isaac interact with other babies/children. Here they are posing for the picture...

And here they are grabbing at each other!! So funny...
Friday morning we watched as my sister, Heather, graduated with Honors. She actually finished in December is is currently getting her masters, but this was the closing chapter on her BYU days. We were so happy for her--but Isaac was a WIGGLE WORM through the ceremony! We were passing him back and forth, I got up and walked around with him once and then we went out to the car to get his stroller later. He was so happy and smiling at everyone around us, it was so cute.
After her ceremony, Taylor, Isaac and I headed over to the Harris Fine Arts Center to say hello and introduce Isaac to the Dean's Office. I worked for the Dean's Office for a year and a half, so it was fun to go and say hi. We then met up with my family at the bookstore, did some shopping and then headed to lunch. Heather's favorite restaurant is Bajio's, so she reserved part of the restaurant and we all had lunch--and I captured my new favorite picture of Isaac!!!
Following lunch the boys went home and the girls went shopping, it was great. That night my sister in law and her family came up and played with us--we so appreciate the drive they made to come up. Then, Saturday was more shopping, but this time at the Park City Outlets. And that night Taylor and I and Isaac went to a wedding reception where we got to show Isaac off some more. Taylor is the first of his group of close friends to have a child, so it was really fun. But then on SUNDAY, came the BIGGEST and MOST EXCITING thing ever! ISAAC STARTED CRAWLING!!!!!!!
We are so excited!!!! (I know, that excitement will fade) but we are so happy and so proud of his growth and development! It's so fun to watch him master it, he was army crawling and now he is rocking on his knees, it is so fun! YEA!!! Let the real fun begin as we have a future 3 + hour plane ride ahead of us! Haha...not!

We drove home Sunday night after having dinner with Taylor's family. And yesterday we had a pleasant house guest stay with us...at 7:00 or so, one of my bestest friends called me and said "we are 75 miles outside of Pocatello...." So we invited, well insisted, that they come and stay the night so Lindsey and her fiance Josh came and stayed with us!! It was such a pleasant and fun visit!!! They are getting married at the end of the month and we couldn't be happier for them! It was so funny, they got here and hand-delivered their wedding invitation to us and Taylor made a comment along the lines of "you drove all the way here just to hand deliver your invitation for us...? How nice of you!" And Josh said (again, along the lines of..) "Yeah we thought we would save the 41 cents to deliver it to you ourselves!" It was pretty funny...guess you had to be there. :-)

Update: Taylor's ears are still plugged. Going on 2 weeks now. He went to the doctor yesterday (per me making an appointment for him) and I don't know what it is called but his ears aren't functioning properly...duh...I guess it's the 2nd tube or tube 2 dysfunction, meaning they don't open and close properly. So the doctor gave him some spray and it's supposed to help....nothing yet though.

So, it was a fun, busy and exciting weekend for our family. And as April ends, May begins and our lives get even crazier....so let it begin!
