Voyage #2 to Utah 2014

Since Sean had a one week break in September, we thought we would take the opportunity to go visit the 801 state. That fact the my older brother Tyler was getting married may have persuaded us to make the visit as well :) It was a BLAST! We never stopped moving! It was crazy! Corbin was such a great sport and he's pretty much the best little baby ever. He has been on more airplanes in his first 5 months than some people go on in a lifetime. He has now been in 5 states, 2 roadtrips, 8 planes, seen two moose, tons of deer, and lived the fancy life in SunValley, Idaho. We are pretty fortunate to have family members to help us live such a life of travel!

Our trip began with my sister's baby shower! We arrived just hours before it began and it was a total success. Baby Girl is LOVED so much already! We can't wait till she is here!  The next morning, we headed to the baby blessing of little Avery, our friends Troy and Holly's little girl. We were so lucky that they just happened to be blessing her the day after we arrived to Utah! Just hours after the baby blessing we piled into my dads truck and headed to the one and only Sun Valley, Idaho. Our family has gone to Sun Valley every year that I can remember. Having Sean and Corbin with me this year just made it feel even more like home than it already does to me.

A little family photo shoot outside our condo. 

For the first time ever Corbin experienced the chill of the mountains. I think he liked it :)

Breakfast at the Konditorei. Our waiter convinced us to somehow spend an extra $30 dollars on bacon and toast. 

Just sliding around the condo...

Corbin's first swim! It was a little rocky at first.

But he warmed up to the idea. 


My dad and I took a day to fly fish. It was a BLAST! We each had a private guide and it felt so good to get back on the river!




Fun, Fun, Fun till her daddy took the T-Bird away! Beach Boys. Who knew they could be so awesome!? I have never seen so many old people drunk and dancing in my life. Half way through the concert my dad turned to me and said he was sure someone was going to break a hip. My throat hurt the next day from screaming. The only thing that would have made this night better was if  John Stamos would have made a guest appearance. haha 


We made it back from Sun Valley to see these two love birds be sealed for time and all eternity. Such a cute couple! We are so lucky to have Sydney apart of our family! Even though Ty had pneumonia and Syd was sick and their honeymoon was ruined by the hurricane in Mexico, they had the most positive attitudes, which is the perfect way to start a marriage. 


Corbin spent many hours in the car seat....such a trooper. 

Hanging out with Gramps at Ty and Syd's reception. 

Corbin LOVES the Lytle family :) He is lucky to have such "great" relatives! 

Meeting little miss Norah :)

She was kind of forward, and he wasn't too interested just yet. 

Such a great day spent with these ladies! It was much too long of a separation. 

The Cars plus Corbin. 

Sean came home earlier than me to start school. Corbin and I missed him like CRAZY! Apparently he missed us too.

  1. So... all your friends and family are named the same as people here! It was weird to read about Troy and Holly and their baby Avery and your brother Tyler marrying a Sydney.... haha! I'm like "none of these names go together!!" Your trip looked really fun though. Good pictures!
