Oquirrh Mountain Temple Open House

Our little family went to the Oquirhh Mountain Temple open house. It was great for Gavin to be able to see everything and better understand the purpose of temples. It was a really fun experience. We're lucky to live so close to so many beautiful temples!

Cowabunga Bay

Gavin and I went to Cowabunga bay with some of my family. It was actually a really fun park. I definitely recommend getting there early though. By the time we left at 4:00 the place was packed. But when we first got there at 12:00 it wasn't busy at all. I'm thinking the best thing to do is be there when it opens at 10:00 and stay till 2:00. And if you go you have to get their soft serve ice cream. It was so creamy and yummy!

Fun With Grandma

While I was in Park City shopping with my girlfriends my mom took Gavin to the Botanical Gardens with my sister and her little ones. Gavin always loves the Botanical Gardens. Thanks mom, he loved it!

Golf Clubs

Steve bought Gavin his first set of golf clubs. He's so excited to have his very own set.

Bye, bye cute baby teeth smile :(

Gavin lost his first baby tooth yesterday. I was so surprised when we realized it was loose. I can't believe he's old enough to start losing his baby teeth. And I can't believe he already has to go through the awkward big teeth stage. So good bye sweet baby teeth smile.

We had a really hard time convincing him to let us pull his tooth. We really needed to pull it because his other tooth was growing in behind it. We tried everything! We even told him the Tooth Fairy brings you money AND a present for your first tooth. But he would budge! In the end it took a very patient daddy 90 minutes of talking, reassuring, coaxing, and begging.

This pictures a little blurry, but you can see the new gap.

The very valuable tooth

4th of July

We had some friends over for a bbq and to watch the fireworks. I love living so close to Thanksgiving Point so we can watch the fireworks in our own back yard.

Watching the show

Gavin dressed up in one of his randon outfits while he was waiting for the fireworks for start. He asked me to get a picture of him jumping. He's got some serious hops!

James slept through the entire show.

Lincoln thought the fireworks were way too loud. He kept his hands on his ears the whole time. Funny boy!

Me and my boy. That face he's making is because he thought the flash was way too bright.

Time for a bigger bed....

We've been having problems with Gavin waking up and coming in our room every night. He's a crazy sleeper and moves around a ton in his sleep. We're hoping giving him a bigger bed will help him actually sleep in it. Here are some before and afters.
