Leaving the heat!


We escaped the heat last weekend and headed up to Heber along with Kenny's aunt & uncle and their kids who came from Utah! It was so fun to be up where the monsoon rains come almost every afternoon. Thunder and lightning were every where! It made us question why we live in the hot valley! We did get to go to a bazaar at the Bison Ranch, took trips to the lake and the rim, rode the quad, ate lots of great food and gathered on the porch every evening to relax and chat. It was so much fun and just the break we were needing!

It was cousin Devyn's 2nd birthday so we celebrated w/ a pinata
Landon w/ Burkley winding down watching Barney! You are too nice Landon!Someone likes Burkley to wear his hat sideways because I have quite a few pics like these.
This was the only way to keep Burkley off the Baci court - a sucker and a ball

Grandpa Secrist & Burkley
This is the bat that grandma bought for the pinata and Burkley wouldn't let go of it the whole weekend. She also sent it home w/ us so hopefully we'll get him to practice hitting the ball some day.

Venturing out into the soft mud and cool water
Kenny's cousin Marin was a huge help w/ Burkley and Marshall. She is too cute. I told her she didn't have to hold him but she said she liked it.

How nice that you got to get out of this heat for the weekend and enjoy some cooler weather!
I love it when older kids want to take care of the baby, it's such a nice break sometimes!!
