Vacation Part 2: Boise

The second part of our trip in May/June was spent in Boise. We got there just in time to have a fun Memorial Day BBQ with the whole family. We don't have too many pictures after that because we managed to get a horrible stomach bug that hit everyone but Harrison. Nine people with the stomach bug in one house over only 3 or 4 days was not a pretty sight. We had a great time regardless!! 
 Great Grandma Sparks
  Evelyn and Lola were taking turns brushing Aunt Lisa's hair

 Evelyn LOVED the swing. She could have stayed there all day. I think the record time she spent swinging was 45 mins. 

 Great Grandpa 


 Harrison fell asleep on me like this while I was standing in the kitchen, which rarely happens. I was soaking it up. 
Evelyn's first pigtails!

Harrison 4 Months

 On the 13th Harrison turned 4 months old. I can hardly believe how fast time is going by. He is such a sweet boy and a joy to have as part of our family. His activities include rolling, drooling, smiling and convincing mom that he needs to be held. His stats at his check up were 15 lbs 9 oz and 25.5 inches long. He is a healthy and happy boy!

Vacation Part 1

Ben had some time off between the semester ending and the summer term starting. We decided to take that time and go see family while Evelyn still flew free. Flying with two lap children was kind of crazy but totally worth it. We spent half of our time in California and the other half in Idaho. It was fun to see family and show off little Harrison to everyone who hasn't seen him yet. 

We spent some time.. 

Swimming

 Hanging with cousin Abby

Bonding with Charlie the cat 
 Jeeping at Hollister Hills

 Playing with cousin Evan
and attending the 4th Annual Hollister Airshow



 Grandpa worked Communications with his HAM radio


 Jeff and Laura flew out so we could all be together
 Jared rocking the BYU attire. GO COUGARS!
 Evelyn fell asleep mid Oreo. Impressive.

Throughout the whole airshow they kept announcing this truck that needed to be moved due to safety. Eventually they said that the tow truck wasn't able to make it and moved it with the helicopter and "accidentally" dropped it. It was pretty funny once you realized they were joking around.
