On the road...AGAIN

So what do you do when you have all sorts of time on your hands and you already have a trip to WA planned for Easter weekend? That's right, you head to Utah...again! :)

We realized that we needed to take advantage of the time off before Aaron goes back to work and we can't use his vacation days for 6 months. We had thought about trying to go somewhere warm, but the only places that were close enough for us to drive weren't going to be great weather over the weekend. It worked out for us to head back down to Utah and relax with family.

It really was a nice, relaxing weekend...not a lot of running around, trying to get here and there. We ate lots of food, played lots of games, did a little shopping, hung with the fam. Gary and Sylvia tried to fatten us up as usual (ha ha), but we enjoyed every minute of it!

Elsie's is such a trooper in the car. The DVD player we got helps a lot! She was making herself quite comfy, as you can see.Can you say spoiled?! Aaron and I came home from the store one night to find Elsie watching TV while leaning up against Grandma on the bed with her pizza mounted on a pillow and Grandpa sitting close by. She is the queen!

Grandpa was reading the newspaper to Elsie and she was enjoying the snuggle time.

It's always nice to getaway. We're excited to go to ML next weekend for Easter, but then we're home for most of the summer. :(
I guess that means the party is at our house!!

Elsie looks so in her "element" in the pizza photo. It's like "Oh hello, mother, what do you need?"

Party at Kim's this summer! Those photos definitely tell it like it is. She has everyone wrapped around her adorable finger.

What a cuddle-bug! It looks like a perfect, relaxing visit. Elsie seems like an easy traveller!
