Utah 2020


The smoke alarms in our air bnb are beeping every 2 minutes. Aaron is on a hunt to disconnect all of them until the evil beeping one reveals itself. After our experience here, I doubt we will stay in an air bnb ever again. While he’s on his futile hunt to keep us from going completely insane, I’ll catch up on my blog.  

Aaron had a fly fishing date up Provo canyon with his dad and brother in law, Scott, early yesterday morning, so  the kids spent yesterday morning coloring and playing the switch and I did a few loads of laundry and made egg burritos. 



To give grandma Lynda a break from having the crowd in her house, we invited everyone back over to Mark’s house with us. Thanks, Mark and Melinda for hosting us, and thanks Mom for the yummy lunch spread! 






Scott and Jana and kids, Janae and kids, and cousin Claire (uncle John’s daughter) joined us to swim. The kids loved it so much! 







Sweet little Soren curled up and caught up on sleep for a couple hours. He looked so relaxed! 





A day at Mark’s needs to include a trip down the street to Shiver for shaved ice! 

Back at grandma Lynda’s, the boys played a new board game called Splendor and the big girls sat and visited. Aaron ordered enormous New York style pizzas for dinner, the our triplets played with alphabet bead necklaces and then went to the basement to watch Brave. Two of Uncle Jared’s kids, cousin Audran (a recent high school grad!) and Ethan flew in yesterday, so we got to hang out and catch up with them for awhile. Almost all the cousins were together (minus Matisse who was working.)  John and Julia also came over. 





While passing through the Lehi area, I tried to track down the store front for some of the homeschool curriculum I want to use for Soren, Sloane, and the twins, this fall. Unfortunately, after a long wild goose chase, we found the store, but it is closed indefinitely due to COVID.  Most of what I need is still out of stock online, so I was hoping to get lucky at the brick and mortar store. That said, I went back on the website last night, and they are hopeful that products will be replenished by late August. 🎉🎉
