Spring Break Part 2

So for Shawn's birthday we got to go on a small little airplane ride up to Payson. Because we were both so busy we never got around to doing it until yesterday. We had a blast! A friend of my parents named Harold Mueller owns this small plane that he loves to fly. On the way to Payson we had Shawn sit in the front because it was his first time flying. And then I got to sit in the front on the way back. On the plane we got to wear those cool earmuff headsets were you can hear the Tower telling us if it was okay to take off and land and things like that which I thought was pretty cool. The flight to Payson was only 18 minutes long instead of the hour and a half it would have taken by driving, awesome. When we landed we went out to eat at this restaurant called the Crosswinds Restaurant where all the pilots go to eat after they land apparently. I felt like it was a retirement home with lots of food personally. So we stopped and ate breakfast and then hopped right back into that plane. We loved it! Flying in that small airplane had the same feeling like we were driving for hours, so even though the plane ride home from Payson was only 18 minutes Shawn and I got super tired. Shawn and I had a great time, what a great birthday present!




Spring Break!

This last week was Spring Break and as an early birthday present to me I got to go to Utah with my sisters, Paige and Kaylee and my mother, to visit our sister Meagan and her cute little family :) The last time I was in Utah, Meagan was still engaged to Hyrum which was about 2ish years ago so I was super excited to go!

Meet Brigham:
He loves playing with his basketball, and tennis ball, and really anything else that is ball shaped that he can throw. He loves to eat peas and grapes(because they are shaped like a ball)...yuck! He also loves TREATS! He never stops being hungry for treats. Brigham can say most of his colors, and words for him for some reason he adds a "G" in front of it so he didn't go swimming, he went gimming, he's a hoot! He can also say Paige, Kay, and Grandma, but not Sarah. I'm still a little upset about that fact even though we practiced all week. He is turning two in May and is one crazy goober of a boy :)
Paige was his favorite, there is no denying that.
                  Brigham's basically a model.
         This is him sporting his duck lips like a pro.
This is what we call Brigham's cheeseball face. It's just his normal smile but boy does he look silly. I'm trying to do it too but I clearly do not look as cute as him.
This is probably the only picture that I have of Brigham and me together when his mother Meagan wasn't close by,(he didn't like me much) and the only way we got this picture was because we were throwing things that we found on the ground. You can see him holding them in his lap :)
Now meet Teanne:
She is pretty much the cutest thing you'll ever see. She is always smiling and she rarely cries!She is 5 months old and loves music, binkies, and rolling over on her back.
This is us waiting for my sisters and mother to finish getting their hair done.
Of course this little onsie was referring to me :)
Here is cute Kaylee holding Teanne after getting her hair chopped off. Super cute!
THEN....we got to go to Hyrum's work on Saturday. AMAZING. It was so cool, there were freezers with ice cream, a cotton candy machine, snacks in a hippie bus (that I regretfully did not take a picture of), soda machines, massage chairs, dogs, and basically anything that you would ever want. We had so much fun! One fun thing that we got to do was "chalk a brick". At Hyrum's work they have a brick wall and people just write their names or really anything onto these bricks. 

These ones are my mother's, she calls herself Grandma Otis and my dad is Grandpa Ching-Chong.

This one is Kaylee's! She thinks that she'll be going to BYU when she grows up and she even bought a cool BYU outfit when we went to the BYU bookstore.
                                                               Paige's duh...


Brigham colored on quiet a few bricks but we named this one as his
This one is mine and because Shawn couldn't come with us because of work I chalked one for the both of us.
 

We loved Utah! We had so much fun going to the park, the mall, and the temple. And it was great to see Meagan and Hyrum's cute family :)
