First vacation as a family

On June 14 our little family traveled to Orem, Utah for Heidi Peterson's wedding. Aurie did quite well on the car ride and Rillz and I really enjoyed each others company for 4 days straight! It happened to be fathers day weekend. So, on Sunday Aurie celebrated her daddy by going swimming with him for the first time in the hotel, taking him to Utah's natural museum, and going out to a yummy local restaurant for dinner. Thank goodness Rillz is the patient type that had no problem pulling over at random places for a 20 minute nursing session! We really enjoyed seeing Heidi P. and we hope for a happy marriage!

On our drive we saw this on the bridges. I said to Rillz "look, Mormon graffiti". Yup! I am that funny.

 
We have video of Aurie swimming for the first time but clearly I  haven't downloaded it yet...

OK first of all your daughter is adorable!! And secondly I can't believe you were only like a fifteen minute drive from me for FOUR days and you didn't even call! I would have loved seeing you Rilz and your sweet baby girl. I even would have come to you .... Just saying. Glad your trip went well though. You never know how its going to be when you are traveling with a baby. :-)
