WARNING: very pic-heavy post!!!!
I spent most of April in Utah. On Thurs. (4/1), Jared asked me if I'd be willing to go to Utah to help out one of his sisters who had just had a premature baby. Of course, I said yes. So we bought the tickets the next day and I flew out three days later, the day after Easter. We had Easter dinner at the Rendine's house:
My time in Utah; I babysat a niece on Jared's side for the first week and 1/2. I was able to stay at Kiki's and babysit the niece there. It worked out so perfectly and the niece loved playing with Kiki's kids! Here are some of my fave pics from the 3 weeks in Utah:
{Princess Carma}:
{Wyatt LOVES the Baby Alive doll Carma got for her birthday; he is constantly giving her kisses}:
{Carma and her baby, Tiana}:
{I brought Carma and Judson to get some Sub Zero ice cream; since I was on the Game On diet, I didn't have any--I was proud of myself for resisting!!}:
{Carma and I "camped" in the backyard in her Dora tent}:
{Kiki and I made crowns with Carma and one of her friends}:
{I love this pic of Wyatt}:
We took the kids to the park a few times while I was there:
{More princess pics of Carma}:
{I took Judson on a "date" to Winger's}:
{Judson and I brought home some Asphalt Pie from Winger's and he shared it with Carma}:
{Judson acting really silly!}:
{Carma dressed up for the ward talent show--she danced with her dance class and sang a solo}:
{Here's a video of Carma when she was practicing her song a couple of days before the talent show--notice how she was much more animated than she was on the stage in front of everyone. But, for her first time singing in front of a crowd, she did awesome!}:
{Kiki and I went and visited a friend, Jamie, at her house and went to lunch with her; she's so awesome!}:
{Jared made some awesome dragons using tin foil}:
{Kiki and I took the kids to McDonald's}:
{Kiki and I took Carma & Judson to play putt-putt}:
{One of the many times Wyatt played in either the car, truck or van; he LOVES cars and likes to just sit and play in them}:
{And yet another Princess Carma pic--I just can't resist!}:
{Wyatt was a full-on binky addict while I was there--completely addicted to them! He went into rehab after I left, ha ha}:
{All dressed up for church--what cuties, huh?}:
I got this great video of Wyatt singing and playing the ukulele; so freaking cute!!!!!}:BTW, in case you're wondering why I never put pics of the nieces and nephews on Jared's side, it's because I don't have permission to and Jared has asked me not to. Otherwise, I would LOVE to put pics of them and show everyone how cute they are and how much I love them. :)
