Sylvia's visit/Silver Lake

Here are a few pictures I forgot to post from Sylvia's visit.
One night Corey, Christopher, Sylvia and I went to Dinner and to see Iron Man 2. We went to a BBQ place in Draper for dinner, great food, WORST waitress on the plant. I ate with eyes wide open out of SHOCK at how awful she was.
BUT, look at what we saw in the parking lot on a white Honda:

Breakfast at our favorite place up the canyon.

After breakfast we went to Silver Lake to walk around. It was warm and sunny in the valley but it was still snowy up there.

Here is Conner giving his famous Iron Man pose. Now Conner has never seen the movie Iron Man...nor has he ever seen any superhero shows...And Yet, he spends all day acting out super hero scenerios starring Batman, Superman, Spiderman, and Ironman, oh yea, and Buzz and Woody too.
Just goes to show the power of male genetics.
Feeding the ducks.

We asked Conner to flex his muscles, this is what we got.

Corey's 29th Birthday/Sylvia comes to visit

We had such a special treat for Corey's birthday. Sylvia (Corey's mom) came from Washington to stay with us for a few days. It meant so much to us. It was so delightful to see her bond with Conner. Ever since she left he refers to the guest room as "Nana Sylvia's room."

Happy.

Conner chose this hat for Corey at the party store.
Best Friends and Brothers. We all love Chris he is such a great brother to both Corey and me, and such a great uncle to Conner.

Sylvia, me, my mom, my sister in law Juleen

Conner was trying to catch ants in this cup. Not only is this impossible but totally sick. BOYS!

We took a trip to the mall and look what we found for 60% off. Ahhh Yeaaaaaaaaa. They are so soft and so cute. I got him two pair. Love them.

My best friend.

Nana Sylvia was able to participate in Conner's night time ritual. We get pj's on and he has chocolate milk and toast and watches his favorite TV show, Chuggington.
Honestly, it was so sad to have Sylvia leave to go back to Washington. I missed her so bad when she left, and the next day Conner was so sad when he wasn't able to wake up and go downstairs to find her in the morning. Hopefully we will see them again soon! We Love You! Thank you for coming!

Up in the Canyon

A few weeks ago we took Conner to his Great Grandpa's cabin. He is finally old enough that we thought he could appreciate it's incredible-ness. I spent many Summers here with my family roasting hot dogs and marshmallows over a fire while the family chatted for hours into the night. Sadly the fires aren't very...shall we say, legal up in the canyon anymore, but we still had so much fun. We fished, took walks, went to the park, and threw rocks into the river. (Turns out Corey is a champion rock skipper. Just when you thought you knew everything about your spouse!) When it got dark we went back to the cabin and watched a movie and popped popcorn.

The same swing that I loved as a child still stands and now Conner is able to enjoy it.


Heber Valley Railroad Tracks

Conner's FIRST TIME FISHING! No, didn't catch anything. Maybe next time.
Later that evening we took a long walk down the trail. Conner found this STICK. Oh what a STICK this was. It was the King of all STICKS. He wouldn't put it down for hours and finally we put it in a secret places so that when we go up next he can have it again.

On our way home from our Vivian Weekend we stopped to show Conner Bridal Veil Falls. Now please don't be offended by the story I am about to tell. Corey lowered him down so he could put his legs in the freeeeezing cold water and what do you think he did? Well he just pulled down his pants and thought he would take a leak. It was so innocent yet so inappropriate. I believe the words, "Stop!!!!! who are you?!!!!!?" Actually came out of my mouth. I was so embarrassed. Luckily all the TONS of people surrounding us laughed rather than cringed. This is only one of the dozens of stories of Conner pulling down his pants to pee at inappropriate times and places. It is all thanks to COREY!

We stopped at Granny's diner to get burgers and shakes. Corey insisted on taking this picture when he saw that I had put fries on my hamburger. I am awesome I promise.


My best friend, and partner in crime. He is a total character and I can't get enough of him. CONNER I LOVE YOU MORE THAN YOU WILL EVER KNOW!
