We spent a great couple of weeks visiting family in Utah. We saw pretty much everyone in both of our families….
I’ll try to knock these out quick.
Lunch with my family in Park City. Dad, Mom, Brent and Emily, Elaina, Me, Brad.
We went to Park City with Jase, Jane, and the kids for a little Alpine Slide and Roller coaster action:
Thanks for carrying two sleds (Elaina) while I take pictures.
This is Trey and I on the coaster. All the way up he was telling me to go slow. He continuously wanted reassurance that we wouldn’t go fast.
I couldn't even joke about going fast.... he was serious!
About 20 seconds into the ride he tells me to go a little faster…. then a little faster… until we were using no breaks at all. He later told me he wished we would have gone fast the entire time. I told him we will next time.. he can count on it.
Olivia’s ride wasn’t quite as exciting.
Katie, Val, Olivia
Olivia loves cousin time. Katie love’s texting time.
A few days after the Gutsman I thought it would be a good idea to go mountain biking with my brothers. We had a great time in Park City. My legs didn’t quite have as good of a time, but they got me through.
Brent, Brad, and I

Olivia on her first sleepover.
Kids at the zoo… Jettie, Trey, Olivia, Daisy, Brendan, Lily.
Staring contest. The statue won, but Trey came in a close second.
Jase, Jane, and the kids.
Kaite and Brendan
Lily, Olivia, and Miranda who came all the way from North Carolina to see everyone.
Olivia and some kid at Lagoon.. Keep your hands to yourself little Mister!
Elaina, Grandma Sandy, Olivia
Miranda, Olivia, Daisy, Lily
You may be wondering why I am sitting with a headless child. That would be Trey sitting next to me in the ultimate thrill ride at Lagoon…. the catapult.
Trey was the only person in our entire group (adults and children) who would go with me. He didn’t hesitate for a second when I asked him.
The ride shoots you like a slingshot about 200 feet in the air and then you free-fall until the bungee catches and bounces you back up. For about 5.2 seconds it honestly feels like you are going to die. I’m not sure why I love this stuff, but I do. And apparently Trey does too. It must have been the coaster encouragement in Park City. You’re welcome Jase.
All of Elaina’s family gathered for a group shot.
All of the cousins gathered for a final shot. And by final, I mean final. The kids were grouchy and and wanted no more picture taking. Except for Miranda and Daisy who are always up for a picture!
