BRIANHEAD

This week we went up to Brian Head for a Christensen Family vacation. We had a Fan-Tab-u-Los time: My pictures are out of order and I am to tired to fix them. Some of the fun things we did were:

We played with sticks

We swung and swung away on the tire swing in the back of the cabin- the kids all took turns, which can be very hard

Most of the Christensen clan put together a 2000 piece puzzle of Time Square. I only put in like ten pieces- so needless to say I wasn't much help

We ate at tasty Milts.... and Jake and Ella entertained us:)

Grandma read stories to the Grand kids

We threw rocks in Mammoth Creek

Ella hugged some rocks in front of the Mammoth Creek Cabin

Stewart and I went to two plays. Two Gentlemen of Verona and Cyrano( which was my fav)

We played on the grass by the Green Show before the plays

Ella hung out with Grandpa for a bit and actually watched the green show

We loved hanging with the cousins- Ella, Adam, Ainsley and Jake

Ella tried on a few costumes

All in all we had a great time. The plays were fun, the cousins had fun hanging out, we ate lots, and sat around a whole lot and Ella was very upset she had to go in the Day care set up for people who go to the plays. I don't know if I will take her back- she sat in a dirty diaper the first night (we are still battling a diaper rash) and the second night her shorts were soaked from pee. How hard is it to change a diaper folks, and if you don't want to, don't work at a place where you take care of children. I am still a little bitter. All the other cousins were pretty well taken care of, and had their diapers changed. Well, except they thought they had lost little Jakey, but no worries:) Now I have to do laundry because we are headed to New York on Thursday. I am so excited:)
