Gavin & Ethan's First Trip to Utah

We went to Utah the end of May and first of June. The babies did pretty good on the five hour flight. Gavin flirted with the flight attendant by continually smiling at her, and so the flight attendant allowed Tad & I to stand up with the babies when they got fussy even though the seatbelt light was on. She'd walk by and wink at us when we were standing up, then go tell the next person that they needed to be seated. It was fun to see everyone and have the rest of the family meet the twins. Ethan & Gavin got to see what real mountains look like, although they did wonder where all the trees went. Dallin enjoyed playing with his cousins. We were able to visit our favorite Utah restaurants/spots that are nowhere to be found in Jersey: Cafe Rio, Training Table, and Keva Juice. We enjoyed staying at out parents' homes and spending time with them. Here are some of the fun things we did.

Mel, I love the updates!! I cannot believe how big your twins are already. It seems like you just barely had them. It is fun that we are going through the same stages, although you are doubling up on everything. I am so impressed with how well you are handling 3 kids. You make it look so easy. I am bummed we did not get together with you guys while you were in town but completely understand. When we visited Utah I felt like there was so much to do and so many people to see but never enough time.

Matty seemed to be more cranky with teething than my other kids. His hand was constantly in his mouth and appeared to be frustrated that it was not relieving any of the pain. He is much better now. Anyway, I am glad you guys are doing well and that you had a nice time in Utah. I am sure your families were sad to see you go!!

Mouffles - Hi pretty! Your family is growing in leaps and bounds. The boys....all of them (yes, including Tad) all look great! Congrats on the Useless Trivia, by the way. That's such a Tad thing. I laughed out loud. I miss you the most, I love you lots and can't wait to see you again.
Love ya, Nae.
