The kids and I were able to spend most of July and some of August visiting family in Utah.
These are some of our adventures...
Hunter had called my dad a few weeks before we came out and the conversation went something like this...
H: Pa, You're an inventor, right?
Pa: Yes.
H: Can you invent something for me?
Pa: Sure Hunter. What is it?
H: It's a creature power suit from Wild Kratts?
Pa: What's Wild Kratts?
H: Get on Netflix and search for W-I-L-D K-R-A-T-T-S. You'll find it. Watch an episode, and you'll see.
Pa: Okay, I'll do that. What is a creature power suit?
H: It's a suit that can change you into all different kinds of animals.
Pa: Really change you, or just pretend?
H: NO, Really change me. Like if I want to turn into a dolphin, I would grow a tail and my arms would turn into flippers. But! My face would stay the same.
Pa: Wow! That sounds cool!
H: Will you do it?
Pa: Sure. I'll see what I can do.
I'm pretty sure Pa didn't know what he'd gotten himself into.
The day before we got there my mom figured out a way to make the suits.
But Hunter was mad that they didn't really turn him into an animal.
But they love them!!
We spent a lot of time on Pa's boat.
We took the tram to the top of Snowbird.
Then Kylie turned 21 and so of course we had to go to Vegas!
And we got spoiled and stayed at the Bellagio. Our room is outlined in red!
We saw a grand total of 2 shows from our window.
Which was a huge bummer!!
But it was AMAZING!!
We went to the Buffet at Bellagio. It was good, but the desserts were unbeLIEvable!
We also went to the Chris Angel Show BeLIEve! It was fun, but kinda creepy.
We were able to spend lots of time together with cousins.
We spent almost every night playing Catan.
We went and watched Pa race go karts. He did really well and came in 3rd, but he was less than a tenth of a second behind the guy in first.
Then just a few weeks before school started, Hunter got his tonsils out.
They were HUGE!!!
