Shayna and I got to go visit my family in Utah and Idaho for six weeks! We just got home yesterday afternoon. We had a great time. Shayna had so much fun with her Grandma Sharee, Grandma Natalie, Grandpa Larsen, Aunt Katie, Uncle Garrett, Uncle "D", Uncle Cade and Aunt Coley. Shayna got to go on a lot of walks to the park with Grandma Sharee and her dog Petey and had fun going outside with Aunt Katie to see all of the animals on Grandpa Larsen's "mini farm". She was able to name all of the animals by making the sounds they make. Grandma Natalie and Aunt Katie had a ball fixing Shayna's hair in cute curlers and pigtails just about every day we spent there. Thanks for such a great time everyone, I LOVE you all soooooooo much and can't wait to see you again.
