Summer Vacation

As a family we decided to go to Cherry Hill campground in Kaysville, Utah for our summer vacation, something that I grew up doing probably every summer as a little girl. It has a fun water park and miniature golf area, as well as a camping area. However, we opted not to camp this year because Preslie being so little, and now unfortunately experiencing it both ways I don't know if I will ever camp there again. The luxuries of a nice soft bed, air conditioning, and a bathroom just a few steps away seems to be a necessity with three girls!
We played and played and played! It was over 100 degrees every day we were there so it was a good thing water was nearby.











While we were there Jarom told Bailey that if she could climb all the way to the top of The Rock he would pay her $1, needless to say she was very determined and got her dollar! You should have seen the look on her face when she reached the red bell and rang it. She was also very proud of herself, and for good reason too, I don't even know if I could have done it!





After playing at Cherry Hill for a few days we went to SLC for a couple of days to do some more swimming at the hotel pool, shopping- however my girls haven't learned to love shopping yet (to my disappointment and Jarom's approval) and go to the Hoogle Zoo.



Jarom's sister Desi met us at the Hoogle Zoo and hung out with us for the day. It was fun having her around, she is such a doll! We love her!



We also went to Temple square and walked around a bit, as much as we could handle in the heat, and went in to the visitors center where we saw the statue of Jesus Christ. My girls are so precious, they have very special little spirits, when they saw him they were amazed, you could just see it in their eyes. Almost every night they bless that Heavenly Father and Jesus will have a good nights sleep and that they will be able to eat healthy food like us!
We had a great time and are now trying to get ready for the new school year ahead!

Brooke!! So good to hear from you. Your girls are absolutely beautiful! You better keep a close eye on them! I didn't know you had a third child too. You are such a cute mommy. We need to keep in touch this way! I saw that you and your husband own a restaurant? Which one? I will have to go there next time I am in town!

What a fun trip! I can't believe how blazin' hot it was... it's definitely a good thing you guys were at a water park! I also can't believe how much Presley has grown since I saw her last! SHE IS SO DANG CUTE! Holding up to the Campbell standard I suppose!
