Much Needed Family Time

Yesterday was a wonderful day for us. We decided that we needed to spend some family time together without having to think of things like "I need to mow the lawn' and "I need to clean the toilets." SO, we took a trip to Missoula. We didn't have an agenda and we took our time everywhere we went. It was WONDERFUL!

We arrived in Missoula at about 10:00 and parked downtown. We walked around downtown Missoula for nearly 3 hours and Caitlyn was a trooper! We meandered through 2 Farmer's Markets, a People's Market (with arts and crafts), and we took Caitlyn to the Carousel and to Dragon's Hollow (a really cool park by the river). We didn't keep track of time and couldn't believe that Caitlyn walked the entire time! The weather was beautiful.
We got in touch with Tylor and Hayley and took them for ice cream and then took them shopping at Old Navy for some summer clothes (they usually arrive at our house with 1 suitcase and a duffel bag between them for a 7 week stay, so inevitably we end up buying them clothes). Spencer and Chadron opted out of hanging out with us. We had a load of fun with Tylor and Hayley and were very sad to have to take them home.
Unfortunately, we left the camera in the car and didn't take a single picture!
So, here are some pictures that were taken of Caitlyn while I was in Utah.
