Utah for Great Strides

We went to Utah for Great Strides, Mimi's 60th birthday, and also to see your cousin William who was in the hospital in Salt Lake.  He was flown there just a few days before we planned to be going, so we went a couple days early to be with family.  You did better on this drive than you have before.  Maybe 18 months is the magical age!

 Checking out the fish at the hospital.

 I think all the cords and wires overwhelmed you a little.  You were very curious about William, but didn't get too close.  You eventually warmed up and would tickle his toes.

It rained the morning of Great Strides, so you stayed in the ESA for a while to keep warm and dry.  Then Aunt Laura brought you some warm clothes.  I never pack right for our Utah trips.

 Whatever you did that morning wore you out.  You fell asleep right after, and stayed asleep when we got you out of that car.  I can count on one hand the number of times that's happened in your life.  You're such a light sleeper!

It also rained at Mimi's Luau party.  But you still had fun.

 Who cares if it's raining when there's cake to be eaten!?!

 You couldn't reach the drink dispenser, so Garrett would fill his cup up, then pour it in your cup for you.

 No matter how you feel about him someday years down the road when you may be reading this, I get to see everyday how much he loves you, and I know he does.

 The drive home went really well with s few pit stops, like this one at Bass Pro Shop.  You're getting better and better at road trips, sleeping in new places, and changes to our normal routine, and I'm thankful for that!
