Spring Break in Utah!

Camri and Papa Steve, reading books.

Here are some cute pictures of Camri playing with her Papa Steve under what they call the "Tickle Tree". I don't know where he thinks this stuff up, but Camri loves it. They go and play under the trees and have a ton of fun together.

Camri and Gramma Carolyn. This girl is a lemonade fanatic.




One night, my Mom took us out to dinner at Timpanyaki, a really awesome japanese steakhouse where they cook all your food in front of you. Camri loved the fire! Everywhere we took her after that she asked for "The Fire!" We had to explain to her that Red Robin didn't have the fire.... She was so disappointed. But to our suprise, this girl can seriously work with a pair of chopsticks! Those aren't kiddies sticks, they were mine, and since I couldn't use them she figured she would. We were all amazed, thats how she ate her whole dinner.




Pretty much the whole reason for this trip to Utah was for us to go with my Mom throught the temple to take out her endowments. It was such an amazing experience to escort her through for the first time. I don't think life gets any better than this...




Camri was in a terrible mood for pictures, though. I guess thats what I get for doing it when she hadn't had a nap all day. The Camri Scowl is just about the only look we got from her during picture time. Good thing she's so cute.




Camri and Gramma Carolyn smooching.





I must say, I think this is my favorite picture from that day.

Gramma Carolyn took us to Boondocks one of the days we were with her, here is Camri riding the pony. As you can see, she loved it.





Here we are playing "Rollerball", which is like a mini version of bowling for the kiddies. Camri loved that the balls were little enough for her to throw. And even though she would throw the ball and then try to run down the lane after it- she still thought it was a blast.








This was her reaction to watching her ball go down the gutter at the end of the lane. I don't think she got the idea of the game...




She actually got a few good throws in...




Camri even seemed to enjoy a game of "big girl" bowling. She kept trying to pick up Steve's 14 lb ball, but she managed really well with her own little 6lb ball. In fact, I think she bowled a better game than Mommy.

Here is Camri with her Brayden. She keeps talking about "Super Brayden", and telling me she wants to go see him tomorrow. Camri went to Jungle Jims with my aunt Liz and her darling
son Brayden while we went through the temple with my Mom. As you can see, they had a ton of fun together!

What a great family you have! Camri's a lucky little girl. That's so amazing about your mom going through the temple!

ash, i miss you! i am so glad that you guys were able to go to utah for spring break and that you were able to be there when your mom went through the temple. i bet that was such a neat experience. i am so glad we could be there when you & steve went through!

ummm, camri is going to be a little heart-breaker! she is beautiful! i know i say this every time, but i seriously can't believe how big she is! she was just a little toddler when i saw her last.

also- i got a Nikon D3000 for christmas. i am still trying to figure out how in the sam-pete to use the thing. oh and the cake was so much fun to make! you should totally do it. it's just a white Betty Crocker cake and i divided the batter into like 6 different bowls and made different colors. when you pour them in the pan you're going to bake it in, don't mix them with a spoon or anything, just pile them on top of each other. Camri would love it! (you should use the Betty Crocker 'gel' food colors. way better than the liquid!

sorry for the mega long comment!
