Much Needed Vacation!

So over Labor Day weekend Jared, Hunter and I went to St. George with Jareds brother and his family. the first night we camped in Cedar City, and Hunter loved it. Then we went on to St. George to do some more rockcrawling and just relax. It was a little on the warm side but so nice to just get away!

Dad getting Hunter all buckled in to go on his first trail.

As you can see he definately wasn't going to fall out!

Didn't much care for the water here!

So stinkin' cute! At least we think so.

Good Friends, Good Fun

So some of our friends have decided to abandon us and move to Kentucky :( So we had a little get together with almost all of our friends to say goodbye.

Everyone was so excited to see Grandma Barbara!

Some of the kids trying to fee the dog.

Our cute little nephew Emmett!

Logan had been telling Jared about his Zuzu pet!

Hunter just taking it all in.

If you can't tell the adults are a little out numbered!

Fireworks

We went to the fireworks at Weber State with a bunch of friends. We had so much fun. Hunter was a little too tired and didn't stay awake long enough to see the fireworks. But had no problem sleeping right throuhg them.

Jared and Miss Brinley.

Hunter just hanging out having fun!

MRI

So on July 7 Hunter had to go in for an MRI. His head, if you haven't noticed is a little on the large side. I didn't get many pictures, because he wasn't a very happy camper when he woke up. He cried for about 2 1/2 hrs, then finally they gave him a little dose of caffine, his eyes popped open and he was a lot happier. Now why couldn't they have just done this earlier. As for the results of the MRI they turned out fairly normal. He will be a little behind developmentally for awhile but it should resolve itself by the time he is 2.
