Pioneer Day 2010

We went to our stake pioneer day activity on Saturday where we dressed up like pioneers and had our picture taken. Nate didn't want to but I think it turned out cute!

Marathon Vacation

A week and a half ago we got home from our first family vacation with Preston. We spent two weeks traveling in the east and had a blast. The trip was centered around an extended family reunion in Palmyra, NY where we saw the Hill Cumorah Pageant. The pageant was amazing. Over the course of the two weeks we put 2000 miles on our rental car. We flew into Chicago, IL and out of Pittsburgh, PA and hit several points in between.

We loved having so much time together as a family and were pleased that Preston (despite lack of sleep, spending a LOT of time in his carseat or stroller, and enduring hot, humid weather) was a pleasant boy a majority of the time.

CHICAGO, IL:

On the River Cruise. Preston hated his hat on and always took it off.

We stayed in the perfect location. (Thanks Alex and Andy for letting us stay in your condo!)
