Ames Summer Visit

My parents were here for a visit in June on their way up to Canada. Gavin loved studying rocks with Grandpa Ducky, and we all had fun playing croquet, hanging out at parks, reading stories, discovering beautiful areas around Heber Valley to explore, and more.




My mom was awesome at helping me weed the whole garden area and plant tomatoes!  They were great to have and I'm excited to add more to our garden next year.  Liam was a great helper digging holes with Grandpa Ducky in the garden.

A close second to visiting family for my Mom, is visiting the Family History Museum in Salt Lake City when she comes to Utah. Gavin's been interested in Family History lately, so we took a trip down with the kids one day to check it out.




 My parents also helped us out with our home while they were here.  My dad built a new shelf for me in the laundry area, and painted the ceiling in the basement for us. At some point Jared and I are looking forward to having family visit us without having to put them to work on our home! But we've appreciated all the help from family over the past several months!
