Vacation







Patrick and I spent spring break separate, but not because we don't love each other. I flew down to St. George during Patrick's test week to see my sister's new baby "Anna." She is way cute. I have lots of pictures, of my trip to st. george but they are on our other computer I realized. So more to come. Anyway I spent a week in St. George and then met Patrick in Salt Lake where we spent a couple days together. We had some friends over to Patrick's house for dinner Sunday night. It was way good catching up with everyone. I then flew back to Monday, and my great husband was so excited to see me that he dropped me off at the airport early to get back for his tee time at Thanksgiving point with Jared and Tristan. I feel loved! He did, however, buy me a gift card to the cheesecake factory to eat avocado egg rolls. They are the yummiest if you haven't tried them. I had to fly to Milwaukee to work so my husband could play. He ended up going Golfing twice, Skiing three times, and Cafe Rio four times. I am glad he was so miserable being apart from me. He did say he is set on moving back to Northern Utah because "where else can you golf in the morning and ski in the afternoon?" We will see, its still a little too cold for me. Well anyway here are the pictures, mainly of Natalie with Patrick's parents I will try to interpret them the best I can.



Natalie drinking a slurpy with Grandma and Grandpa Leiter



Natalie playing with her Lion






This is Natalie playing at this really huge park by Patrick's parent's house called Discovery Park.




This is one picture of St. george, this was a way cool indoor water park we went to. Natalie wouldn't go in the water for 45 minutes, and anytime I came near her she told me to get back. Finally she entered when we put a life jacket on her. She then played for two hours.








Riding a pony at the petting zoo at thanksgiving point.





Grandma Leiter and Natalie






Natalie feeding the goats








Natalie was very brave, I was impressed when I saw these pictures













Natalie and Grandpa Leiter playing on their favorite bean bag












Grandma Leiter with her two favorite grandkids. Avery, actually, took his first steps yesterday.







This is a newer tunnel at snowbird, they blasted through the mountain to let you ski the back side. Apparently you ride on a conveyor belt.

This didn't load right, this is Natalie playing catch with Calli.





Natalie ate all of Patrick's pasta at the spaghetti factory. I am not joking, ALL of it. Patrick had to mooch off others for food.

Natalie with Mimi, her great grandma mele. Who flew out from denver to see her grandkids.

It was fun seeing you guys again. Avery loves his cousin. They had a blast at the zoo. I can witness to the fact that Natalie ate all of PK's pasta. I still have marinara sauce on my shoelaces from that night. Good times. Hope you had fun in St. George. I hear Anna's pretty adorable! Take care -Rachelle

What a great spring break! I can agree about the avacado rolls, yummy! That is hilarious that Natalie ate all of Patrick's dinner! I can't believe how much these little people can really eat when they put their mind to it!
