Last Days in St. George

When I was 7 months pregnant with Griffin, Brandon got a job that relocated us to St. George. So why not move back to Salt Lake for a new job when I'm 7 months pregnant with our second boy?! After 2 years in St. George, it's time to move back to Salt Lake. I was not a big fan of SG when we first moved there in the middle of summer, but the place grew on me and I ended up liking it more than I thought I would. It helped to have family there. That's what we will miss most, the cousins and grandparents. Many thanks to them for the fun two years and for watching Griff so we could move more easily. Here are some pictures of our last few weeks before the move (June-July)
My little big helper doing the dirty work in the kitchen


Costco is always fun when you can bring along a friend and eat in the cart

Hanging out with friends that came down from Salt Lake. Grayson

Starting to use crayons

Our time in SG would not have been complete if we had not seen a monster truck in a parking lot at some point

Visiting Grandma at her office. We missed her this day, but we left her peaches and a note. Griff loved stopping by to say hi...and playing on her computer

couch trampoline...once discovered this became an everyday event

Hanging out with Grandma and Cessna, the bird

Sleepovers at Grandmas house and early morning snuggles

Griff has started to line his toys up. Who teaches them this?! They all seem to do it at some point

Basil harvest from my garden. So sad to leave it before I got to enjoy the peppers

Helping move boxes...and riding the dolly

4th of July Carnival bounce house. His first time in one.

He loved it

Carnival tractor train

We took Griff to his first movie theater movie. He was so good and stayed seated for most of it.

Sign that Griff had been there

While "helping" me pack Griff dropped a large glass measuring cup that shattered in a thousand pieces, gave us both cuts on our legs and scattered several feet across the kitchen and into adjoining rooms.

Playing with cousins at the downtown water park. Aunt Jaime and Grandma took Griff out with them several times so we could pack. Greatest gift ever



Griff spent a week in SG while we moved and unpacked in Salt Lake. Here's the flood from his first day without Mom and Dad



The carousel they always want to ride on but only get to occasionally. Griff is going to miss his cousins so much!
