Shawn gets a 2 week break for the Summer-so we decided to take advantage of that and head to Utah/Wyoming for a week to see some family. Before we left I had to take and document a picture of Shawn on his last day as a DS2 (second year dental student). Oh we are so happy to have him out of his second year (the hardest year by far) and moving on to the clinic and working on patients!
We left Saturday morning and made an overnight stop in Boise on our trek to Utah. My wonderful sister-in-law, Emily, reminded us when we got to their home in Provo that Sunday that it was our 6th year anniversary! So we spent it driving to Utah and staying with my brother and his wife in their little duplex in Provo on an air mattress with 2 babies next to us!
We did have some Sparkling Cider to help us celebrate the accomplishment of being married for 6 years, with 2 kids, and 4 years of undergrad and 2 years of dental school under our belts!
Callie was stoked when she found a ladybug at Uncle Brocky's house.
One of Callie's favorite things is to ride the carousels-so she was able to talk both Uncle Brock and Uncle Kyle to take her for rides.
After a few days in Provo with my Brothers, Brock and Kyle and Sister-in-Law, Emily we headed up to Wyoming to camp for the rest of the week with all of the Platts in the Uinta Mountains. Callie loved our tent and slept great in it and we had a "pack 'n play" for Lucy and she did great too. Our camping trip consisted of the girls getting filthy, campfires, a hike around Mirror Lake, s'mores, picking wild flowers each morning on our walks, lots of rock throwing and sand eating, good food, and fun time and great memories with family. I was worried about camping with a 24 month old and an 8 month old-but the girls both did great and loved being outside all day long!

Lucy loved the water-and it was freezing cold too
Callie Ann loved the water too and spent most days in her swimsuit

The whole Platt Crew-we missed the Ben and Garrett Platt families!!!
Shawn, Callie, Lucy, and I took a little walk each morning and Callie loved picking all of the wild flowers

Callie and her little cousin, Kalee, had so much fun playing together and spent most of their days throwing rocks into the river
We stayed very dirty all day long-and it made me crazy!!!
Grandpa Platt set up a ZipLine and the kids had fun taking it across the Bear River-Callie got on it too and loved it-she is such a brave girl!
