Long Live Summer!

As promised here are some new pictures, we have been super busy already this summer. Casey decided not to take any classes this summer so we want to make every day count!




We kicked of summer with Casey's cousin Ryan's wedding in Las Vegas the day after finals. The rented a few party buses and drove us all out to Red Rock National Park for the ceremony, the only problem was the ride out made me so sick and I threw up once we got there! This is Belen on the bus, at first she was kind of confused as to why she wasn't straped down in her car seat (there we no seatbelts at all!).
At the end of May we took Bey to Hoogle Zoo for the first time, granted she is a little young still but we had so much fun! She loved seeing the big kitties and the penguins.


Not the best picture but she is admiring a chimp through the glass and when other kids would come up to the window and block her view she freaked out.


We made our first trip to the Spanish Fork Pool and it was still kind of chilly but Bey was a maniac and just wanted to run wild, it will be so much fun when she can actually swim.


After the pool we went to Barry's for ice cream, a very messy tradition.



The next couple of pictures are at Lagoon, Casey's cousins came from out of town and we all went up for the day. Again, Bey is a little to small to really have fun there but we had a good time, Casey was able to take her on a few rides and by the end of the day she was pooped! She got a little too excited while she was running and turfed it resulting in a big, sad scraped knee, but after the incident she was so exhausted that she fell asleep in my lap, what a sweet baby.



She was terrified to get on this dragon ride and it wasn't until the second loop around that she started to have fun.





And finally we took Bey to the Art City Days carnival for the first time, and we were suprised that alot of the kiddie rides were small enough that she could go by herself, except the merry-go-round which she was terrified of. At home she will sit on the dogs and sing "pony, pony, pony," so we thought she would love riding on the big pony but she wouldn't sit with her legs over the horse and Casey had to hold her the entire time, what a goof-ball.



The train was by far her favorite, it was the first ride she went on by herself and she really didn't understand why we were making her get off when the ride ended.





It's only the middle of June and already we have had such a fun summer and we are still looking forward to our annual trip to Lake Powell and a possible trip to Yellowstone is in the works! We'll keep you all posted on what happening and we are hoping to know the sex of our baby at the end of July!
