Girls Trip

This past summer we had a quick girls trip in Park City with the ladies on Kyler's side of the family.  Kyler was super man and took work off so I could go without the Henry boy. :) All of us girls were there except for Shylo (we missed you!) and we had only one baby with us, which was kind of a miracle. :) 

It was so. much. fun. and so needed!

The party started Sunday night. We all got there after church and had dinner at the condo featuring Rachel's delicious chicken salad sandwiches. (I think that's what they are called...) We hung out, girl talked, went for a little walk, and painted some nails. 

definitely not the best picture but... you get the idea. :)

We all stayed up much too late (guys I was too excited to sleep) and had yummy breakfast burritos in the morning. 

Then we shopped til we literally dropped for all of Monday, with a little break at Kneaders for a late lunch. Miss Kayzlie (Kiley's youngest) was seriously such a doll the whole trip. I was dying with all of her cuteness!

this girl has such cute, chunky thighs! Love it!

this sweet little lady passed out on Aunt Kelsey. So precious.

It was such a fun little trip and I am grateful to call these women my sisters. We seriously lucked out that we all get along so well. When it comes to in-laws, mine are kinda the best. :) I'm already excited to do this again next year! 

Henry Shenanigans part 4

This segment will be referred to as the Mess Maker Mayhem edition! 

I don't think I really understood what was coming my way once Henry became more mobile and busy. I feel like every time I turn around I find a new huge mess. Somehow Henry is really good at being stealthy, silent, and quick in making these grand clean up projects for mom. It's like I gave birth to a ninja! Let me show you a little bit of what I mean.

If we go in the kitchen, you best believe we have to touch and move every. single. shoe. :) Luckily I caught this one before it got too out of hand, but this is something Henry does at least four times a day I'm pretty sure. 

And then we have Henry helping me with the food in the pantry. I had just finished putting away all of the groceries and then 30 seconds later....  He was doing this on a different day and a glass jar of jelly broke. Therefore, we now have baby gates blocking our kitchen. :)

Lastly we have Henry expressing his desire to help mom put away his clothes. And by help I mean take out every single piece of clothing that was nicely folded in his baskets. :) But how can I get mad when I see this precious face?!

Lest I sound like I am complaining, I really am enjoying this stage of Henry's development! He is so much fun and always keeps me on my toes. Even though I feel like I spend most of my day cleaning up after this little hooligan, I don't think I'd rather have it any other way. I love being a mama and I love seeing Henry learn and grow. 

Keep the good times comin! I wonder what he'll do next. :)
