Summer fun

The last couple weeks have been really fun and busy! We've been gone a lot, and other than Cory and me getting pretty sick last week with a killer cold which turned into bronchitis (luckily it's gone now!) we've been having lots of fun. Here is what we've been up to...

We went to Draper Days parade with my family and watched the fireworks. Even though we don't live in Draper we still had to do Draper days, it's a tradition! Here is a picture of my dad with Luke at the parade...

Then that weekend to early last week my dad's side of the family had a get together with all the families up in Park City at the Marriott up there for a couple nights, it was lots of fun! We went boating one of the mornings, hung out at the pool, had some good meals made by my grandma Bagley.

Here is a picture of Luke boating. We went to Deer Creek and it was overcast that day so it was a little chilly till the sun came out. So we wrapped Luke up in a little baby burrito wrap. He was so funny, just laying back relaxing all wrapped up.

Luke doesn't have any cousins on either mine or Cory's sides and it could be awhile because we are both the oldest and none of our brothers or sisters are married yet. So I am always kind of bummed that Luke won't have any cousins close to his age to play with. But, he has a second cousin that he is really close in age to! My dad's youngest brother Dave and his wife Sue had their 4th kid, which was a boy, 2 months after we had Luke. So they are really close in age. Here is Davis and Luke looking at each other...they will be little buddies!

We were home for a day from Park City and then headed down to St. George mid-week for the 24th of July and the weekend to hang out with Cory's family.
Me and Luke drove down with Cory's mom because she was already up here, and Cory drove down later that night when he got off work. On the way down Cory's mom had some fun dressing Lukeup like Davie Crockett at a convenience store...
On the 24th we went to a baseball game. St. George has a minor league team called the Roadrunners, and after the game there were fireworks. We didn't know if Luke would be scared or what. But by that time (about 10:30) he was already so tired, he got a little fussy with the fireworks and then about halfway through them he actually fell asleep in my arms! And they were loud fireworks! He must have been exhausted. Here's a picture of Luke and Cory's sister Jamie at the game...
We went over to Cory's aunt's and uncle's house for a 24th of July breakfast, they went all out with pancakes, fruit, dutch oven potatoes, eggs, sausage, etc. After breakfast we went to their son's play room and he had this cute doggy rocking thing that Luke had fun sitting on!

It was really hot down there, so we of course did lots of swimming and laying out by the pool. Luke loved the pool this time. It took him a minute to figure it out, but pretty soon he was splashing all over the place. Since it was so hot outside so he would get worn out after not too long, but he really liked the water. He also loved being in his little turtle floaty toy. He would just lay back and relax in it, and he liked kicking his legs around really fast so he would move around in the little turtle.
Splashing around......Loving the turtle.....
