i won tickets to park city through a blog this summer!  we went the last weekend it was open+ uea weekend and it ended up being really crowded. karma, emily and amy came with us. the weather was perfect and the leaves were gorgeous. the coaster was the fav ride by far!

some pictures were stolen from emily's blog. she rocks!

abe was so tired he fell asleep eating

eating all day was a favorite part of the trip

eli fell asleep every afternoon from pure exhaustion. he even slept through the fireworks. we wer right under them too. they were loud! ezra was trying to put his head in the bag before i took the picture.

i'm a bad blogger. so what do i do? catch up with everything i missed or start with right now???

the boys got pillow pets. thanks to grandma sue of course!

they brought them to disneyland.

they loved small world

ahhh boney clavicle alert!

ezra has had these mickey ears since he was 6 months old!

waiting for the gates to open

hey friends! just wanted to let everyone know that we are selling our phil and teds sport stroller. let me know if you're interested.

just bust a move

i love eli's dance moves.

every july grandma bateman has a week-long camping trip at granite flats, up american fork canyon. this is the first year we have stayed more than one night. we had a blast. the boys loved it and  so did james and i. it's funny how even things like camping become so much more fun with these amazing kids of ours.
