For now, here are pictures of this week's travels. We went a week ago to spend the night at Eric's cousin Cyndee's house to help her with her four boys while she went to an all-day training meeting. Now I know what it would be like to have six kids! Kind of crazy, but totally fun!
On Friday we went to our old stomping grounds of Vernal, UT (you know dinosaur land). We stayed with our friends the Bush family (Matthew, Lauren and Dax).
On Saturday we went up to Steinaker lake to go canoeing and kayaking. 
We also ran into some neighbors of theirs who had a really nice boat and took us out on the lake. Matthew and Eric are riding "Big Mabel" in the background:
What luck! We ate too much sugar and got too much sun, but we had a super time.
On Monday we went to Salt Lake on our way back to visit Eric's sister Karen. They took us up the canyon to this beautiful lake and waterfall then back for a great BBQ and smore roasting in their back yard.
Now we are finally back home! It was great to see everyone, but it is so nice to just be home and not feel like you have to do anything... well, for the most part. What will be even nicer is having a home of our own!

Jen - great pictures as always. You guys are having so much fun!!! Congrats on the job, Houston will be awesome!!! Don't mess with Texas - you guys will totally get into the state pride. Who knows, maybe we'll end up there too if Spence goes after an energy job.
Houston huh!!! Taylor's brother just moved from Houston to Dallas but loved it there!! Good luck with everything and keep us posted :)
I am dying to hear more about this job!!! Houston will be great! It was one of the very few places even I would have let Ty accept a job! Congrats! Live up the free time now...because Ty sure does not have much now that he is working!
CONGRATS on the job! Good luck with the move.
We are so excited to have you come join us in Houston- even for a short time. Congratulations!
It's so true that you can't have that much fun when you have a job to go to. There just isn't time even if you want to do that much stuff. So, happy you found a job, sad you'll be leaving Logan again. If you have time we should maybe meet at a park, or do something before you take off.
Wow, sounds like you are enjoying your free time! Way to go! Corbin is sitting with me looking at your pictures and said, "Awww I miss Elia." Good luck with the move!
hey, we've wanted to see your blog for awhile now...and couldn't get on, because it was private! so, i'm glad this worked. i saw the link on cole and mindy's blog and hoped it would work. anyway your kids are so big! i haven't seen Elia since she was running around your old house naked, refusing to put a diaper on! what are you guys doing now? job? what's the update? let me know!~camber
Congrats on the job. We will be waiting to hear more details. Hope it ends up being what you want. Maybe you can go over there and get six months to a year of experience and then come back and work for REC. If so, maybe Mark will be flying Eric around! More likely you will fall in love with Houston, hu? Good luck.
Congrats on the job!! We are so thrilled for you. I bet you will really love Houston--close to a beach and you will be there with friends! Congrats, again!!
