Utah highlights

We had a great time visiting in Utah. Some highlights included...


A visit to Rupert, Idaho to visit my Grandmother - Grandma Aldridge.

Grandma Aldridge's famous trampoline coffee table that she's had since I was a kid.

Introducing Joshua to solid foods. It was a hit. You should have seen him go for that spoon.

Josh being cute.

Traditional homemade pizza for Christmas Eve dinner.

Visiting Temple Square.


We also enjoyed the big Egli family Christmas party at my cousin's gorgeous house in Ogden, a visit with one of Brian's mission companions and wife, a visit with a good friend of mine from Boston, Gabe getting to touch the Logan and SLC temples (he actually licked the SLC temple), and a couple visits with my sister in Salt Lake City. We didn't get to see everyone we would have liked, but hopefully next time.

Snow for the Texans

There have been only patches of snow since we've been in Utah, but Gabe has appreciated those small patches for hours on end.

Josh, on the other hand, is a little dismayed by the weather.

Play

Gabe loves to play with Josh. And Josh usually loves when Gabe plays with him.

One of Gabe's favorite things to do is roll over Josh. I'm pretty sure he doesn't put much of his weight on Josh, because Josh usually laughs when he is rolled over.


Another favorite play is running in circles around Josh. This game actually turns out to be more dangerous than the roll-over game.

The other day a flying foot hit Josh in the face and he was none too happy with his brother.

It seems that hugs made it all better though.

Christmas Card Photos. Or Not.




...at least the hats are cute (even though Gabe's was on backwards)
