I've been working on my dissertation in Arizona for the past month while Tara, Aria, and Zade have been hanging out in Utah with her family. We decided it would be best if I came to Utah to visit and remind the kids they still have a dad. :)
At the same time, Jenna also came to visit. Tara and the kids had a good time playing with her on a hike.
On the 4th of July we went and had the kids join in the Mill Creek parade, where kids go and throw out candy. Aria hadn't gotten enough sleep the night before, and was pretty grumpy. There was no way she was going to throw out such a lovely stash of candy. :) Zade made a good effort throwing the candy, but wasn't able to put much distance on each throw. We then went over to Tara's aunt Marjorie's house and hung out with their extended family.
Since they had a slip-n-slide, Tara's mom decided to get one too. Aria had a good time on it (until she wiped out.)
We also had a long overdue date night. After having a nice dinner at Olive Garden (courtesy of Shara - thanks!), we hiked Ensign Peak and then went to Red Butte Gardens.
After church today Zade went and grabbed a spatula, stuffed it in the back of his shirt and began wandering around saying he was He-Man. He's then pull out the spatula and wield it as a sword. He's hilarious!
