Our Family Vacation

Tuesday, Nov. 14th. I love Frontier Airlines because of this:
Nickelodeon and Boomerang.
Wednesday, Nov. 15th. Rob and I took the girls to Provo so we could relive our past life. This is Elizabeth and me at the Brick Oven, it was still tasty.
Nick, Jenn and Eric should like this.
Caroline and Rob at the Brick Oven.
We used to love this place.
This was a beautiful statue in the memorial garden.

"Lord Daniel of the Corner's" house (I had a huge crush on him).

This was my first apartment. The Hampton Court. My friends called me "Lady Hampton."

A place that me and my friends used to frequent all the time, especially when we wanted Ben and Jerry's Cookie Dough ice cream.

Rob and the girls in front of the Marriott School of Management. He spent a lot of time here in school.

Me in front of the Beasley house. It was MUCH smaller than I remember.

The "Y."

Elizabeth and me at the Maiser building.

Rob and the girls at "The Tree of Life." It was pretty sunny.

Avert your eyes!

Thursday, Nov. 16th. Thanksgiving Point. We all went to a nice restaurant before hitting the carnival. Here are our finger suckers waiting for their food.

Here's grandma Bond and Olivia.

Elizabeth was in rare form, we had to pull her away from the table because she kept trying to pull the table cloth off of the table.

Here are the cousins at the Scarecrow Carnival.

Here are Ben, Olivia, and Caroline on the giant spider.

Here's Caroline playing in the toddler area, this woman doesn't know it yet, but Caroline will be back again and again.

Rob and Elizabeth braving the slide.

Me and the girls. Friday, Nov. 17th. This was a fantabulous surprise! Jayne's house is absolutely charming. It's good in pictures, but it's better in person. It's absolutely adorable! I loved it! It was my first time seeing it in person. Jayne rode to Vegas with us. She was able to spend the weekend there, I was SO glad!

Her darling kitchen.

Loved, loved, loved it!

The green chair, zebra rug, and striped drawers add funk and flair.

Saturday, Sunday and Monday, Nov. 18th, 19th, and 20th. What a vacation!!! This was the norm, Caroline started throwing up and wasn't normal for about 3 days. We were stuck at home, which under the circumstances, was a great place to while away the sick hours. Poor Rob got sick as well, poor little Lovey!

Tuesday, Nov. 21st. Here is Caroline and cute cousin Alexis chasing bubbles. Jessica was blowing bubbles that she bought at Gymboree, they were the coolest bubbles because they would land on not burst.

Here's Elizabeth watching the bubbles float. I love hanging out at Jek and Jason's. Because Caroline and Rob were sick, we weren't able to spend enough time there.

Jessica's house is SO darling! I started snapping pic's so I would remember some of my favorite things. Let's start with Rob, he's definitely one of my favorite things, this lampshade is too.

I LOVE her china collection!

Her yellow and white couch is SO much cuter than it is in this picture, it's yummy!

I like this wooden shield, it looks royal.

Rob and I finally broke out of the sick house and went to Caesars Palace. I love the forum shops. This shop was so beautiful!

Here's another picture, It was so feminine and the jewelry was so beautiful and unique.

The ceilings were so neat.

Wed. & Thurs., Nov. 22nd & 23rd. On our way back to Utah we stopped at Parowan and spent the night, we ate at the Parowan Cafe the next morning, it was yummy!

This is Rob, he may look like he was in good spirits but he wasn't. It's probably that oatmeal that he ordered, what planet is he from?

Inside the cafe.

Me and Caroline.

Here's Elizabeth and her crazy tongue. She was in a fowl mood.

Thurs. and Fri., Nov. 24th & 25th. My wonderful brother and sister came to visit the night before we left for home, it was such a treat! I love them!

This is grandma Louise with Robby, Caroline and Olivia. Elizabeth and I would have been in the picture as well, but it was her "ups" for the sick bug and she barfed on the way to grandmas, so we had to turn around and go back to Catherines. It was lovely.

Catherine took me to an adorable boutique. It was so "girly" I loved it! This is an adorable lamp shade that I'd like to copy.

The girls with their very hospitable Aunt Catherine. Sweet little Ben played with Elizabeth for a long time.

Here's a picture of Elizabeth thanking grandma and grandpa for her birthday gift (she has little lambs clutched in her hand). Elizabeth was showered with gifts the day we left.

This birthday gift was from Olivia, she's so darling!

In spite of the sickness, we had a wonderful time visiting our wonderful family! Thanks for showing us a great time! We love you!!
