I flew to Utah with both boys on my own which isn’t as gutsy as it sounds. For the most part, they’re good travelers. Sure, the guy sitting in front of Hooper may have stories about a particular tray table that kept going up and down and the flight attendant may have had to talk to Van about keeping his seat belt fastened, but all in all it was trouble free. Perspective is everything, right? Van’s insistence with pushing the suitcase actually paid off because when you add up the number of car seats, suit cases, and carry-on bags and compare that number to the number of willing and able hands, I’m clearly outnumbered. Janet (pronounced Jeanette) met us at the airport and helped out from there.
The weather was cold, much colder than it had been in the weeks prior. I would have whined more, but Hooper and Van did enough whining for all of us. Determined, we refused to let any whining or cold weather or hungry babies or nap times slow us down. We had a list of things we wanted to do and we damn near did them all. As for our time spent in the home though? Well, in looking at these pictures now, it’s painfully clear that the majority of our time at home was spent feeding people. Namely babies. But the bigger kids, too.
More from Utah to come in the days to follow… lots of adventures were had.
So beautiful. Love these.
Oh those babies….adorable!
The twins have gotten so big! I love their little faces!
My parents just moved (end of December) from SoCal to Utah….St. George. I’ve only been once to visit so far and we hiked through Snow Canyon. Soooooo many beautiful spots for not just the photographer but or any nature lover. Can’t wait to check out Zion! I’d so love to see it now, since they’ve recently had snow but being 8+ months pregnant, I don’t see myself getting over there again any time soon. Love the true to daily life nature of your photos…always 🙂 Looking forward to seeing more of Utah through your lens!
