Our summer: Rexburg #1

At the end of June, we headed up to Rexburg to spend the rest of the summer with my parents. Phil stayed down in Ogden and came up on the weekends. Our first week there we had some visitors! Rita and Clem, a.k.a Grandma and Grandpa, drove through on their way to Nauvoo. It was so fun for Felix to see them again!

Clem and Felix played lots of legos!




Another highlight of our Rexburg stay was the splash park at Porter Park. I cannot believe how awesome this splash park was. There's a huge play structure in the middle with mini water slides. I've never seen that before, and I was wishing I had something like that to play on when I was a kid. Sadly, you had to be 12 or under to play on it. (I look 12 right?)

At first Felix was a little confused and hesitant, but he soon warmed up to the idea. And yes he either had to be carrying around his shoes or our shoes. Always needs something to play with!














When we got up to Rexburg, my mom was out of town and shortly thereafter my dad left as well. So needless to say Felix and I were so happy when Nana returned!

First haircut with Nana!




My mom showed Felix the piano. He loved hitting the keys. 





And then Kira came to visit! It was so fun to see Kira (Felix's oldest cousin!). After living with her for three years I really missed her! She did a week of softball camp in Provo and then came and spent a few days in Rexburg. I helped her sew a blanket for her new little sis and I even tried to get her to watch Pride & Prejudice with me (the short version), but I failed, she fell asleep. She also brought me up to speed on her new favorite music group, One Direction. She's smitten. Kira just started 10th grade! I can't believe she's that old. She's awesome.





(Mike, Hannah, and Sammy also came to visit, but I didn't get any pics of them) :(

  1. I forgot I met Clem last year when he and Phil moved your stuff in the first time :) Nice man! Love all the pictures of Felix. I haven't seen him in person yet since you got back and I'm excited to see how much he's grown! PS thanks for the BB, wearing it as we speak! Or, as I type!
