Carter turns 6 years old!

We are spending some time in Iowa, and loving every minute. Carter was lucky enough that his birthday bash fell on our trip.

We pulled the water slide out twice today, lots of fun in the sun.

Carter & Logan

Even Cali was a fan.

Star Wars Carter Cake.

He chose pizza as his dinner of choice.

Here are the party people, a Star Wars / Transformers party.

Time for presents, he had been waiting for this part all day.

Harrison & Carter

Cali & Mariah.

First thing that morning we headed to Chuck-E-Cheese.

Happy Birthday Carter! What a jam packed day of fun.

2010 Summer Utah Trip

We headed to Utah for the 4th of July. Uncle Jason with Cali.

The Potter family reunion. The kids begged for rides, and Todd answered the call. If you got real close to him you could hear him singing "I think his tractor's sexy...." Oh wait, that may have been me, my bad.

Candice and the girls.

Cali and baby Addison.

The Jordan Oaks Ward 4th of July breakfast.

A day trip to Silver Lake.

If I had not grown up with a dad that was a total tease like this I probably would have thrown a fit.

My Car Car.

Mr. Muscles.

Kelsey and her now fiance! Congrats guys. Lucky for you Chris I left off the embarrassing pics, ready to upload at any moment though. Arrrgh!

Miss Kinnedi!

Trent's cute family. Loving those ladies.

Grandma Carter and Cali.

This little piggy...

Colleen needed the garage cleaned out, no biggy it just hasn't been done in like oh 30 years, aka ever. They got it squeaky clean.

Some gorgeous ladies, Laura and Cali.

A few cheap labor kids. They did a great job pulling the weeds from the planter boxes.

Ellie's baptism. We were lucky to come in a few days early to see Ellie get baptized in Logan. She looked gorgeous and it was one of the most spirtual baptisms that I've been lucky enough to attend.

These two guys always end up at the little girl table, a couple of softees.

Candice took this picture at the West Jordan parade. I have to give her a huge shout out thank you for watching our kids so Todd and I could go to the temple. Thanks girl your the best.

Swimming at Grandma Lavons pool.

So, Todd and Trent had to serenade Chris into the family. (Justin and Garrett you missed out big) They thrashed around in the pool dunking and holding and muscling each other, like watching a bunch of kids. I thought that they got all this energy out the night before at the Classic bounch house. All good fun, but I don't think Chris will soon forget the pecking order in the Carter family. Just teasing.

We had a good, relaxing trip. And, I didn't cook once so that in and of itself was a huge vacation.
