Ut-aaahhhhh...

Thursday we all hopped a plane and flew out to Salt Lake City, Utah for a weekend at the McNally's (it's like a resort where they live)! There was a little family reunion planned on Ross's side and the Greenwald's (my in-laws) were gracious enough to pick up the tab for us to make the trip. We had a GREAT time!

It was the first time either of our boys had flown, so we didn't know what to expect. We did think Dane would do awesome, which he did. Cash was a different story. He is so mobile these days that keeping him in my lap was nearly impossible. Let's just say we will not be flying with him again until he's at least 2.


Getting ready to take off. Dane was so excited and kept saying, "is it time to take off yet Daddy?"


Grandma and Grandpa Greenwald.
(Quite funny picture of Grandma Lynn~but she's funny, so that's ok.)


Daner peeking out the window. Wow.


We arrived safe and sound and within 5 minutes, the shirts came off and the games began. Dane is very interested in playing any and everything around.


Cash showing everyone his new moves.


Dane and Daniel were hooked at the hip the entire weekend.
The McNally boys were so sweet to our little guys.


The men in the family are hot stuff. Seriously!!
I'm very lucky!


Ross at the top of the mountain behind the house. The view is unbelievable.


Swimming with Grandpa.


Our little fishie!
To say Cash loves the water is such an understatement. He is so happy splashing around.

Our hosts: Dave, Nancy, Patrick and Daniel McNally
Wonderful hosts! Very thoughtful and considerate people.


The Greenwald's


Me and the hubbs.


Ross, Jessie and Dane Greenwald (Cash was snoozing)


Dave is on the board of the fire department (I hope I got that right)
anyways...there was an event for children, so Ross took Dane, along with Dave, Patrick, Daniel and Uncle Bryan to check out the new fire department in their neighborhood.


Going down the fire pole.


Spraying the water.
He looks so serious.


Ross, Dane, Daniel, Patrick and Uncle Bryan


So cute "driving" the truck. He asks to drive everywhere we go.
Does he really think that one time I'll say yes??


Later the same day, we drove out to Deer Valley, a beautiful little town next to Park City. Everything was breathtaking!


On the way, I turned around and spotted this. It was the sweetest thing.
The picture isn't the greatest, but you get the idea. Our boys love each other so much.

After arriving in Deer Valley, we proceeded to take a chair lift up the mountain. Thank God there was a bar that came down. I was scared out of my mind. I was not in control of what could happen. The view was awesome and I wasn't worried about myself or Ross. I just kept thinking "what if Dane slips or jumps up and flies out...". It was the scariest thing that I've ever gone through. I cried on the way up. Oh...and the boys did great.


Ross decided to take a picture of us. I am holding on to Dane with one arm and the lift with the other. It was horrifying.


After eating lunch we snapped a few shots before heading up another lift to yet another mountain even higher up. Let's just say that I didn't breathe very well for much of the afternoon. And I'm pretty sure I have some new gray hairs.



See what I mean? Beautiful view, but come on...


At the top. On solid ground. I'm glad that we did it, but I will not do that again until the boys are a lot older.


Dane and Daddy enjoying the view.


The last night of our weekend on the pool deck enjoying food, drink and eachother!


The three buds~amigos~compadres~stooges~dudes! These three were so fun to watch together.

Thanks so very much to the McNally's for having all of us at your amazing home. Thanks for the wonderful food, beverages, entertainment, hospitality and love. Let's do it again--in a few years when it's not hell to travel with my baby :o)

And thanks again to Big Daddy and Grandma Lynn for taking us along. We appreciate it more than you will know and had such a fun time with you. Hopefully you enjoyed yourselves, as well.
