So beginning of July we took a trip out to Utah and had so much fun seeing family and friends that we haven't seen in ages! We started out with a family reunion with my mom's side of the family where we stayed close to my grandma's in Farmington and had lots of picnics and just hung out. It was so great to see cousins and finally get to see their cute kids! I wish we all lived closer!
Brayden and I trying to pass a water balloon on the 4th. We weren't a very good team!
Brayden loved the water gun in the water fight!
My went to my Uncle David's Wedding in the Bountiful Temple which was a great experience and Blythe looked beautiful! We're so happy for them!
David and Blythe. ( I realized I didn't get any good shots of them so I had to borrow one off my cousin Laura's blog. Thanks!)

We hung out that night with Jay, Heather, Coleman, Amanda, and little Isaac. Jay and Coleman are Guy's friends since he was little. The boys got to frolf a bit and we all just had fun hanging out and talking. Thanks again Coleman and Amanda for watching Brayden while we were at the wedding!

We also got to see Guy's sister Melissa and her sweet family who are now living in Provo. Brayden cried so hard when he had to leave his cousins. We HAVE to live closer someday!

We then drove to Ponderosa Ranch which is about an hour outside of St. George for the Richardson reunion. It was SO much fun! So fun, that apparently I didn't have time to take any pictures cause this is the only one. :( We're not the best at remembering to take pictures!

After the reunion, we headed to Vegas with my family! We stopped at Hoover Dam first and took a tour which was awesome. It was SO hot though but we survived!
They are building this huge suspension bridge so traffic doesn't have to go over the dam anymore. I think Guy was more fascinated with the construction of that!
We walked around Vegas and looked at all the crazy casinos. I have to admit I did try out the nickel slot machines just cause I had to say I did it once! I was fascinated by some of the tables where the minimum bet was $1000 or more. I can't imagine losing that much in just a few minutes! Who has that kind of money? Anyways, we had a blast as we always do when we tag along with my family on trips!
Of course the highlight for Brayden were the trains at the Bellagio. He could have sat there all day!

We ate at this buffet at MGM that was seriously SO good. My dad says I'm getting old when food becomes a highlight of a trip for me but I just think its cause I'm pregnant! :)
The dessert bar!
This was part of the stage at the Cirque du Soleil KA show at MGM. Not the best picture. It was SO awesome. Thanks Dad for letting us go! :)
So we just barely got back from a fun trip to Oregon. I'll have to split up our trip in a few posts since we have SO many pictures! We were able to stop at Crater Lake with Guy's younger brother Mike and Mandy. It was seriously amazing! I did a report on Crater Lake in 4th grade and had wanted to go ever since, but we never made it all the way out to Oregon. So I decided to marry someone from Oregon just so I could get my chance! j/k! Guy and I tried to go on our honeymoon but it was so foggy that we couldn't see a thing... but no trouble seeing it this time. It truly was breathtaking and the pictures don't really do it justice. The water was just so clear and blue. We'll definately have to make another trip back so we can spend more time there!

We've been spending lots of time at Six Flags this summer! The looney tunes characters are so fun!
Riding the merry go round over and over with his superman cape!
So this is why he was being so quiet! :)
