A Few Good Things

Coming April 8- May 3 of 2009

I am seriously SOOO excited, I can't wait!

Bought this skirt over the weekend and LOVE it!

I think it is a staple item in any working girls summer wardrobe.

Saw this charming movie and recommend it to everyone! I loved James McAvoy, and of course Reese Witherspoon in it. You definitely want to make time to see it!

Dinner with the Gibbons

One night we were able to meet up with all the cousins that are in Utah for pizza at the Pizza Factory. It was so fun to see everyone, especially Ben and Shaunies little girls, what dolls! Being together with family this past week has been making me REALLY homesick, and I am itching for a trip to Washington, hopefully soon! I'm feeling a Gibbons reunion at Camp Willow? coming on... I totally can't even remember the name of that campground, but we for sure need a family reunion sometime soon, anyone with me?

Hogle Zoo

On Friday we went to the Hogle Zoo and let me just say I loved it! I was really impressed with the Zoo, and it was a lot better than I was expecting. One of the highlights was while we were there we got to see them feed the cougars, and man those cougars are crazy! It was definitley exciting to watch. It was a little bit cold that day, but we had fun seeing all there was to see!

Me and Kristin have a picture of us posing with this drinking fountain when we were REALLY young, it was fun to see it again!

Zachary, Kendall, and Collin

Zachary was lovin' lounging on this elephants trunk!

The whole fam- Miss you guys!

The Zoo had a baby giraffe and it was SO cute

This is why I love these guys! I forgot to rotate this picture, and it won't let me delete it so I guess you will just have to turn your heads!

The Hogle Zoo Train, hands down the best part of the zoo! ha-ha J/K, it was a bit of a joke for as old as we are, but we loved it anyways!

All good things must come to an end....

On the last night the fam was here we headed over to one of my favorite places- the Nickelcade! A trip to Utah just wouldn't be complete without it! For sure my family loved it and it was a great way to end the vacation!

Carmen, Kristin, and Kendall shootin' hoops

Collin was loving life at this game, he was getting so many tickets!
A word to the wise: don't "accidentally" bump the machine with your hips to try and get more coins!

Redeeming his tickets- this guy is crazy! Our nephew Isaac and Collin had SO much fun playing together all week. I'm bummed I didn't get a picture of them together, they are quite the pair!

For sure me and Carm rocked it on DDR. My face is so intense, that game can be quite tricky when you haven't played it for over a year!

After a week of fun-filled craziness while my whole family was visiting, my life and house are sort of depressing. I told Zachary our house will seem pretty boring now without 10 people jammed into it! We were so happy that everyone could come and visit and now we're just sad that the week had to end so quickly! Miss you guys already, come back!! Pictures to come....
