Utah 2012

 My kids are so easy to travel with, all you need is a tv and lots of kid movies lol.

 We decided to catch a ride with my parents this summer when they were going to Utah for a quick trip. The kids LOVE spending time with them and we were in desperate need of a vacation. 

 I was a little worried about how to keep the kids entertained while we were there, but there was no reason to worry. The first day Great Grandma Challman taught Dublin how to play checkers and he quickly became obsessed. 

 And Tessa spent most of her time climbing up and down the stairs, shutting doors, obsessing over the grandfather clock, and slowly breaking herself off the binky (with the help of Great Grandma Challman).

 We went on lots of walks, feed the ducks a few times, played at the park, ate at Dairy Freeze, and learned that Tessa most likely has a shellfish allergy. 

 Not really sure what this face is all about lol.

 Seriously you can't stop Sean Halterman, we tried. lol.

 Tessa fell in love with this little kitten and the kitten fell in love with her. It followed us everywhere, and was so adorable! 

 Even after almost being loved to death this cat still wanted to follow us.

 Tessa thought all the fire hydrants were robots and would freak out every time she saw one :)

 Story time with Grandpa Challman :)

 Dublin was not happy to be leaving Utah and going home.

Also we got to see and hang out with Caitlin and Brian but apparently never managed to get a picture with them.
