Our trip to Utah

We went down to Utah this past weekend. We were supposed to go the weekend before for Scott's family's "Jensen Reunion", but we were all sick and it was supposed to get cold at night. So instead of going then, we went down one week later and got to see Scott's family.
On our way down, we saw Grandpa and Grandpa Jensen (Amy's grandparents). Grandpa actually said my name when he saw me! That made me so happy. That was the only thing he said while we were there, besides yes and no. He seems to be doing much better than before, from what I heard. It was so good to talk to Grandma. She has such an amazing ability to be so positive while going through all of this.
We also got to see Megan and Weston's place. We all had a pizza dinner together. The kids were pretty excited to eat while sitting on the floor. After eating and taking a tour through their new place, we went on a walk and fed the ducks together. They were some of the strangest ducks I've ever seen! They weren't hungry! I've never seen one duck not eat when you throw bread at them, let along a whole flock! But Tyler and Emalyn still had so much fun walking after the ducks and playing with them. Walking after the ducks is kind of like chasing them except you are not running and the ducks didn't appear to be concerned at all. They just walked the other way. So it looked like a kid/duck parade. It was cute.
After that, we spent the rest of the weekend with Scott's family. Heidi is pregnant and having her first baby in September. Her baby shower was on Saturday. She found out at the shower that she's having a boy! We're so happy for her and Jaron.
At the family dinner on Saturday, Scott, Tyler and I played the Wii a lot. Nancy bought Mario Kart, (which brought back lots of memories of way back when we used to play it in my family. That was the only nintendo game that I ever really got into.) and it was even more fun that what I remembered because we got to hold steering wheels in our hands and pretend we were actually driving! I lost pretty much every race (sound familiar Dave?) and Scott and Tyler were pretty good.

Anyway. it's good to be home now. Krysta sleeps so much better here and it's nice to get back into our routine and day-to-day life. My sister, Cheryl, is participating in a triathlon this weekend. Whoohoo!! She rocks! Good luck cheryl!
