Visiting Park City

We were supposed to go to Park City to help my sister shop for wedding dresses, but when she didn't end up going down there, we decided to go out a week earlier to visit with the cousins! I'm so glad we did - although I do not recommend road trips with a somewhat wakeful new baby....not ideal. I have to say that his screaming on both long drives seems to have cured him from screaming in the car - yes! Definitely worth it :)

Look how loved this little man is:

Andrew loved holding Rhys:
Rebecca actually stayed up until midnight for us to arrive so she could hold him! I really wish she lived closer so she could be my babysitter! She held him and rocked him the whole time we were there:
Katie was quite smitten too:
Even Matthew got a turn ("where the baby!?")
Here's Parker snitching some cucumbers from Aunt Whitney. The boys LOVE their Aunt Whitney. In fact, the whole way home we heard "WHEN are we going to see our cousins and Aunt Whitney and Uncle Jeff again? When REALLY are we going to see them?"
We got to go down to Provo to see our other cousins too! Here's Anna and Rebecca - again, my star babysitters!

Whitney made these ridiculously adorable cupcakes to celebrate Matthew and Katie's birthdays. We gave her a hard time about the cupcakes being way too much effort, but seriously - how cute are they!?

Lighting the candles was tricky in the wind, but Matthew didn't seem to care:
Three sets of cousins:
Before we left, we had to hit up our favorite park in Park City:
Aunt Whitney holding Rhys. She babysat him (including shower service!) while Scott and I went shopping at the outlets. So awesome!
The boys and their idol cousin Andrew:
Since we've been home, all I hear is "no Mom, Andrew said it was..." and "guess what Andrew told me?". Love it. And love my cute nieces and nephews!
We had such a great time - short and sweet. Can't wait to see you all again soon!
