WARNING: Lots of content. You may be here awhile...

Well here I am again. I suppose it is time to come back from my sabbatical..Not that I was ever the best at posting anyway. For those of you who don't remember me, I am Carrissa.. ;) Anyway, we took a very fun trip to Idaho and Utah. We went to Idaho for 1 week. And then Eric went home and the girls and I traveled on to Utah with my parents where we stayed with my Aunt Ellen for another week. Since pictures tell a lot and I swear my brain and mouth (or fingers in this case) don't often work real well together, here is a little of our adventure through a TON of pictures:

Utah:

My beautiful family on my mothers side. We are almost all here minus my hubby and My aunts hubby.

Lindey enjoying a ride on Uncle Jared's shoulders

This was the first time Shanna had ever ridden on rides before. Here she is awaiting the start of a ride at Lagoon


Hogle Zoo:

Alice and Shanna became fast friends!

The tigers were real active today. You can see him up close! :)
Temple Square:

My dashing soon-to-be missionary brother :)

This is my mom's uncle Gary and the moment he walked in the door and spotted Lindey they were inseparable! Here he is talking to her outside. It was so sweet to watch!
Yes, this is my mom with a huge line of clips clasped together from one ear to the other. Who did it? My dad... Why? Well, it was very, very late and everyone was beginning to feel a little loopy... My mom may never speak to me after putting this picture up. But I couldn't resist. It was too funny! I love you mom!!


Idaho Falls:

Ready for church at Grandma Hellewell's

Chasing the ducks with cousins, Hunter and Cedar
Feeding the ducks


Jackson Hole:

The aftermath of a long week and hardly no naps. My girls were wiped out and exhausted but we had the best of time with family and friends! It was so worth the drive and busy, busy schedule!
