Utah Trip #2

A few weeks after our last trip to Washington/Utah Owen and I headed back out to Utah for some weddings!  James came a week later which meant another airport trip by ourselves..

Luckily Owen was mostly happy and cheerful waiting around at the airport and on the plane!

We stayed at Great Grandma Owen's for the first week of our trip.

Owen got to use his grandma chair again..

 And find a new favorite spot at great grandma's house..

 And see Natalie and grandma..

And most importantly..

He got to see great grandma's dogs again!

He loves these dogs.

We also got to go see the cute triplets that Bethany is a nanny for.

They were pretty interested in the new boy at their house..
 

Owen might not have been as thrilled as they were.

Next was Aunt Bethany's wedding.

I'm still waiting for some reception pictures of us all, so here is Bethany and Aaron outside the temple.

At the reception Owen got to sit like a big boy at the table.

And wait patiently for his food :)

Which he got to sit and eat with Grandma and Grandpa Jensen.

 He also got to spend some more time with Great Grandma Barnard who he warmed up to after he stared at her for a little while..

Owen enjoyed some time with mom and dad :)

And then didn't enjoy some time with mom and dad..

 

The next week we spent at Grandma and Grandpa Jensen's house.

 

 Here he learned how to play mario kart with dad!

Then we took a trip to This Is The Place State Park.

 

Owen got to ride on a train..

Play in little houses..

(

At one point he thought he might be able to make it out of one of the windows..

He quickly found out he couldn't..

)

 Pet goats..

And fulfill his lifelong dream of touching a duck!

Although the best part was probably the pony ride he got to take.

 

He had so much fun he wanted to ride twice!

 

 

It was a pretty great day for all of us :)

We eventually also made it up to BYU.

Where we had a great time bowling!

And it turns out that Owen is a pro at bowling and can carry a 6 pound ball by himself!

 

One terrible thing happened on this trip.

Bethany Coleman, James' cousin and my wonderful friend, got married and I neglected to get even ONE picture with her and her new husband Benji.

 They looked wonderful and happy and I was there I just have no proof.. :(

 

When it was finally time to leave we were all sad to go..

But I was happy that we finally had James with us on a plane so we weren't alone :)

And so I had someone else to hold Owen for hours in an awkward position so he could sleep..
