We love when family comes to town

We were excited to have my brother Eric, and his family come to town and spend their vacation in good ole Utah the past 2 weeks. Ever since my sister Krista moved from Provo to Oregon this past June, I've been left as the only one in my family still in Utah, with my family officially scattered all over the country/world. Yes, I know my parents do own a house in Utah County, but will they ever live in it?? We'll see...

So with them here on vacation, Emmett and I got to enjoy a little 'staycation' ourselves.

We went to the Discovery Gateway Museum

Lillie and Emmett

Emmett is currently obsessed with scooters and lawn mowers. He found both free at the same time and couldn't decide which to do. So he scooted around, while mowing at the same time.

Then he found a more manly lawn mower and gave up the pink one.

This pic is for you, Grandpa Winterton. (Might need to zoom in.)

We also enjoyed the Children's Exhibit "I Am a Child of God" going on at the Church History Museum.

They have a hospital/nursery scenario set up where the kids can dress, weigh, rock, change their babies in the nursery. It was so cute!

Eric and cute baby Henry

They also had a bunch of other fun things for kids to do. Puzzles, coloring, dress ups, blocks, ect. all church oriented.

This is the best picture I could get of Emmett and Lillie together dressed up at the Nativity display.

Emmett holdin tight to the Iron Rod.

The kids had so much fun here (as much as the Gateway museum) and I highly recommend it for FREE fun with the kids if you're in town!

Then we went to the Zoo:

This picture of Emmett makes me laugh. He loves his sunglasses and his shirt goes perfectly with it.

I won't post all my zoo animal pictures, but I want to at least include the baby elephant. She was so cute!

We had a great time!
