Utah Trip: Part 2

It was a very relaxing vacation (until Amelia decided not to sleep anymore...) where we just hungout with family. It's still not hitting us that this was probably our last, long vacation in a long time. 




Playing at the jensens. It's so fun To have friends with kids the same age.




Ring around the Rosie's is her favorite song and she coaxes everyone into doing it with him. 


Playing with her aunts, Annica and Lucy



Sleeping with Anthony was the only way she would sleep for the last week of vacation. 



Swimming t the Provo Rec center. They have an awesome indoor and outdoor pool. Amelia wasn't quite as brave as I had hoped, but we still had fun. 


Ashley's wedding 

The past couple of months, Anthony and I have been training for the Utah Valley 10K. I pulled a muscle in my foot about a week before on a run in Utah, so Anthony had to run solo. Which was his plan anyways. From the beginning, He told me he wouldn't run at my pace... I'm too fast for him. Riiiiight. He finished in 50 minutes! I was running at 65 minutes before I got hurt, so obviously we weren't goig to run together at all. 



At the Orem Summerfest carnival and parade. My favorite time of year!











Sunday walks through grandma Browns orchard


My step sister, Taylor had a baby while we there! This is grand baby #2 on my side and Amelia LOVED holding baby Jake.

Spring Break part 2 ||Rochester Museum of Play||


The next day, we went to the Museum of Play in Rochester. It was such a fun place and everything was kid friendly and play oriented. I think a 3 or 4 year old would just love it. Amelia didn't know a lot of the characters, but that didn't stop her from playing with everything. 


We found out how to get to Sesame Street!


They  had a mini Wegman's and she loved having her own cart and getting her own fruits. 






Mother Goose's House




Bernstein Bears Land




And her favorite display in the all of the land. 
DUCKIES.


Spring Break 2014


Spring Break wasn't very warm this year.  A lot of our friends headed to beaches down south, but we decided to go north. Since this would *hopefully* be our last year on the East Coast, we decided to head to Niagara Falls. We were going to go all the way to Montreal, but it was just too cold to be walking around all day. 

We drove straight to the falls, and then headed back to our hotel in Rochester. It was such a fun experience,even though we decided not to go to the Canadian side. I know, I know... everyone says the canadian side is better, but the American side is pretty too! I am still not sure why we didn't go to the other side, but we didn't. And I guess I don't know what I am missing. 








Since we moved to NY, buffalo wings have been a favorite dinner for us. I had never even tried any before we moved here, but they are my favorite. I CRAVE them. Weird, I know. 
So while were passing through Buffalo, NY, we thought we should try the restaurant where they first wing was ever made. 


And they were disgusting. Evolution has been kind to this recipe. They were dry, and crispy, and flavorless. 




After dinner, we went to the hotel and played at the pool. Amelia was in pure bliss.
