Hi Ho Cherry O!

Alan's parent's have a HUGE Cherry Tree in their back yard. He says it's a "tort liability" to climb up so high and harvest them. But hey, he's a law student and law students are no fun! ;)

Here's Auntie Renee! Can you spot her in the tree below?

By the way, we arrived back home yesterday. I cried for about 15 minutes as we drove away from Alan's family in Pleasant Grove. I will miss them so much!

Fun with Nana!

Washing windows may seem like a chore, but to Emma, EVERYTHING is fun. So we put her to work!

Ain't she Cute?

Grandpa's Garden

Grandpa made a fabulous rope swing which Emma LOVED!

Brooke wasn't too sure if she liked it or not, though:

This is my favorite pic of the entire trip: (Alan's big brother Will forcing him to get some air!)

Pulling Weeds out of the Onion Patch:

Blowing Bubbles at Best Buy

For Alan no trip is complete without browsing a Best Buy! So we stayed outside and played while he did that.

Thank You, James!

James, Alan's friend through work, always lets us stay at his guest house when we come to Utah. We swam in the pool with his son Noah, whom Emma has a crush on now, of course. And doesn't Brooke look hilarious in that hat?

And we love to play with their sweet dog Malone.

Thank You, James!

As Grandmother used to say: I Love a Parade!
