Adventures in Utah

Here's an update of our trip to Utah so far.

It all began with the marathon car ride which went so much better than I expected.

We started off the visit with a trip to the Bean museum at BYU. Mac was slightly afraid of the larger animals but eventually found a diorama of a train which occupied his attention for most of the visit, eventually bringing him to tears due to the fact that the train would not move.

For our next adventure we went up to Sundance for a little hiking.

On our way down the mountain we encountered a bit of drama as Mac raced down the hill at breakneck speed.

Which inevitably led to a tumble and sent grammy racing to the rescue.

And after a few good hugs all was well.

Ah the odyssey of the hair. I have been unwilling to properly cut Mac's ever growing hair these two years, however after Cameron found him with a pony tail it was decided that the time had come. First up was the home cut by grammy which looked good albeit a little shaggy.

So it was off to the professionals and with a steady supply of suckers (3 in all for a 5min. hair cut) Mac sat through his first real cut.

And the results are one big boy. I can't believe how much older he looks without the long baby hair. I do miss the long hair though, so it may be another to years before we cut again.

And most recently my good friend Amber and I took the kidos to the Thanksgiving Point animal farm which was great fun.
