4th of July Weekend

So I know that this post is a little late but better late than never right? All picture credits go to my sister and and sister-in-law since I'm terrible at remembering to take out my camera. I guess I need to get better quick though or the grandparents are going to revolt when this baby gets here. ;-) So here is the weekend in pictures (well some of it):

We drove to UT and stopped in Page so I could have a break from sitting in the car. We changed our shoes and hiked up to a look out in the Grand Canyon called Horseshoe Bend.

My sister, sister-in-law and mom threw me a baby shower (see previous post for more on that)

(Love the Buzz costume! He's trying to light his candles. How cute!)

(Fun & scary since one went off a little low.)

Those who play must clean up ;-)

It was a great trip and so fun to spend time with my family. Love you all!
