4th of july
this 4th of july weekend was a lot of fun, we went camping up to bear creek campground, and my pretty much aunt and uncle re-newed their vows. they aren't really my aunt and uncle but we have always considered them that.it was neat to watch them do that and my dad did the ceremony so it was nice. i was a little concerned about hwo merrick would do because previous camping trips were more stressful than fun, but everything went great and he had a blast exploring and getting dirty. there were warnings about bears in that area i guess there had been problems there so i was freaked out mostly at night, i didnt want to stay by the fire because i always thought there was a bear in the trees and it was goi
ng to attack me. it was scary. i took my camera and i forgot to get pictures but i did get one before we went camping 4th of july but yoiu cant see his face but his outfit was cute so you can kinda see that and i got a picture of him lounging in the chair while we were packing up to head home. overall it was a really fun weekend.

Emery County Review

Merrick is in a baby contest and he was chosen to be part of an even bigger contest because hes such a handsome boy. the picture below is the one i entered i had a hard time finding the one i wanted to put in it there are so many but i love his little tounge sticking out.
Our Trip to Durango
This last week made a little trip to Durango to see family that we haven't seen in awhile and to introduce our newest addition to his grandparents, great grandma, aunts, uncles, and cousins. we were there for 5 days and we got to spend time with everybody which was alot of fun, johnny's dad played the guitar and sang for us and i was going to record it and my camera was dead but eventually i will get a recording of it, Merrick loved it! It was nice to visit and see everybody, johnnys brother lives in new mexico so we made a trip there to see him and the family. Merrick hated being in his car seat all of the time but overall i feel that it was a trip worth while. we will have to go there more often.
learning to crawl
merrick has been learning to crawl the past week, when we were in durango he learned to get onto his hands and knees and now hes getting ready to crawl away. hes getting so big
ng to attack me. it was scary. i took my camera and i forgot to get pictures but i did get one before we went camping 4th of july but yoiu cant see his face but his outfit was cute so you can kinda see that and i got a picture of him lounging in the chair while we were packing up to head home. overall it was a really fun weekend.
