A Whole Lot of Utah

Another super-fun trip to Utah! Took a ton of pictures, saw lots of family we love, ate way too much junk(and loved all of it), unpacked & repacked the car 5 different times-at the 5 stops we made(WAAAY more stuff when you take a newborn), taught the kids a lot about interesting people & their interesting choices (thanks mostly to just one night in Vegas), showed the kids places I adored during my childhood, and made lots of fun memories for our family!
Can't wait until the next vacation!!

Hi it's Jamie, Abby's mom from kindergarten. Abby is dying to play with Emma. I have lost your phone number. Could you email it to me and we could set up a play date? itsjamiec@aol.com

Thanks-

It's better that Regan has a popped hip than a popped collar:) Me and my girls still love Hotel Michele. No better place to stay!

I am dying at how cute your girls are. Reagan's hair is getting SO long. I love the moviestar shot at the end. Tell her Savannah says hi and misses her!
