Last week in Utah - Aug. 2012

 Raylie & Chloe

 We went to the Hokulia Hut in Provo for some Shave Ice Hawaiian style!

 It was huge and so yummy, there is ice cream in the middle and sweet condensed milk on top!  My dad came with us to Hawaii back in 2008 and we went to this great Shave Ice place called Matsumoto Shave Ice, where the shave ice are like this place in Provo.  It was fun to take my dad and my girls there to reminise our trip to Hawaii when Dalia was 20 months old (not even 2) and Tesila was 2 weeks old.  However, we did miss Brian and Arlen on this trip.

My Grandma A. had a birthday on August 3rd and she turned 86!!!
Dalia helped her blow our her 5 candles that were on her cake.
My dad, his Mama, Me, Rocky, & Jami
Happy Birthday to Grandma!!
Uncle Rayson is AWESOME!!  Check out this sweet backyard pool set up.  Notice he even hooked up the hose to the top of the canopy so that the water would shoot down into the pool!  Raylie is so lucky!
Chloe likes to stay all bundled up!  She is a good sleeper!

Raylie is a fish!  Or she wishes she was one!  That girl would live in water if her parents would let her.  She throws a fit when it is time to go inside.
Rockstar Tes with her "guitar"!
Baby Chloe one week old!
Callie & Raylie wave good bye to us as we go to spend the day at the Farm at Thanksgiving Point.

Brennan really liked looking at the pigs.  (However, you can't see the pigs in this picture)
The three big girls!
Tes, Dalia, Ava
Kaelyn enjoyed the farm from her stroller (mostly)
Dalia
We waited Forever to ride the ponies!  But the kids really wanted to ride the ponies!  They talked in line about which one they wanted to ride.  Tesila even named her horse "Flower."

He even waved to the crowd as he rode his horse!  So cute!

(This is how Callie would hold baby Rock and he would always fall asleep).
Cousins!!!  Cheyenne, Britni, & Callie!!
We all have Red houses!!!!
We played at Cheyenne's house for the day!  So fun!!!  I love Cheyenne and i'm so impressed with her patience and easy going nature!  She is a mama to 5 little boys (the oldest is 6 1/2)!  Brock being her newest addition!  So impressed!  Shine, Thanks for letting us visit for the day!  I love being around you!!  I only wish we were able to see each other more!
Bryant  (5) & Dalia (6)
My girls played so well with Cheyenne's boys!  I am so glad they like each other.  Cheyenne and I were the best of friends growing up!  We would play for hours and hours.  We mostly would play house or talk about how many babies we were going to have and what we were going to name them.  It is so fun seeing our childhood dreams become a reality!  And it makes my heart happy that our kids like to play together.
