We Love Uncle Carlos

We made a quick trip to Cali to see (kind of, there were so many people we didn't actually SEE him, but we were there) Uncle Carlos become a US citizen. It was pretty much fun. We ate at a Vietnamese restaurant, stayed at a super cool hotel, saw 3000? people sworn in, and ate at a super citrus restaurant.

We love Carlos so much. He is a beautiful person.(I am actually writing this like a month later because I am pretty much a slacker and just now getting it posted)

Fun Fun Fun

Sat we tried to pack as many things as we could in one day. Started out at the gym, then went to Hafen for Mayor ralley/walk.

We took the "uncles" (minus Arth in Cali) to Red Rock.




































Stopped by the store.














Played on the Merry-Go-Round

















and flew the kite at the park- MJ even did it all by her self!

Quack Quack

We went to the feed the ducks, only the ducks were not at the least bit interested in eating.

Is the water suppose to look like that???


Arthur was here and the girls couldn't get enough off him.

I couldn't resist this picture of Sam and Jens. Just maybe she is getting to tall for the walk under the legs game?

Going Green

Sat. We went to the St. Patty's Day Parade. We were late (you know, I was up late partying, and wasn't moving too fast that am) and we didn't get a great spot . . . THAT is until someone up and left a bench wide open for us. Yeah for us. (this is MJ covering her ears because of the Harley's)



We made sure to wear our Hafen for Mayor shirts.

MJ liked the clown garbage can . . . not so much the real clown though.

Water Polo


Friday we (MJ and I) got ambitious and drove to Cedar City to watch our cousin Garrett play in a water polo tournament. It was pretty much awesome. Garrett did a great job and it was so much fun to watch. He is such a super bueno guy.

I am so glad we went. (Even when it was midnight and we were still driving home).

Look who it is

ROARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

We headed over the the big town of Vernal to check out the Dinosaur museum. I have to admit, it was pretty cool.
Which is scarier?



Which is hairier?




Jens thought the museum could use a blow fish.


I think I need this fossil wall in my house because it is pretty cool.

How do you know you are loved??


I am at my in-laws visiting with the girls. Sammie my Mannie was nice enough to come with me so I don't have to drive with two little travelers by myself.

So Jens is in the tub having the time of her life. I am having a great time letting Grandma bath the girls while I read. I look up and Grandma is in the hall with Jens and says "You need to get this one, and I will get the other mess." So I get Jens, and realize the other mess is CRAP! Yep, Jens must have been pretty relaxed in the tub because she let loose, and pooped all over in the tub. And Grandma cleaned it up. Now that is true love. :)

Red Rocks!!

We went with the play group to do a little hike at Red Rock, and it was so much fun. Sam (who I am starting to call my Mannie)was awesome and made the trip so much better/easier.
Sam carried Jens in the backpack.
Yep, a natural waterfall near Vegas.
