A grand ol' Utah time

In August all of the Pants' family flew to Utah so we could visit with his Grandma and Aunt's family.
One of the days was spent caravanning up to the mountains to have ourselves a very Utah time.

We rode 4-wheelers through the trees past cows and horses.

These were the true daredevils. At one point we tried to pass them and we accelerated
so much that my hat flew off. 
That really set us back!

They came back covered in dirt from their "solo ride."
The women folk just really hold them back. 

 We splashed around in the water.
Look into your future Mr. Pants. I think it may look like this!

 Noah and Raylee pontificating about life.


The kids played in the dirt.
This is Nanners' make-shift "shade-that-very-white-babyface" outfit.
Thanks to Jess for the bandana and Gabe for the pants. Mostly she just looked like a thug.

We ate a tasty dutch-oven meal courtesy of Uncle Dale.

And we made valiant attempts to get family pictures.
At least we're all happy.
After our short but fun stint in Price we headed to Park City to get some quality
time in with the Pants' immediate family.

We played at the pool.
Nanners has really taken to the water since her swim classes.
I must remember to get one of these floaty boats.
 It made for such an enjoyable time at the pool with a toddler.


We had a dance party to some bumping primary songs.
This is my favorite picture from the trip. Nanners and Noah dancing in front of the mirror. Yeah, that's the robot you're seeing.  

We also played a lot of Nerts, hit up the Alpine Slide and watched ourselves a few movies.
We had a really good time and it was a welcomed departure from the norm.
