Went to Utah this past week. It was spring break for Josh and Derek's wedding. As always in the airport or on the plane people ask if its her first flight. Here's the update:
1st Flight: 3 months old
15 flights later our seasoned traveler is making sure to follow directions and read all the safety instructions:
Whew, thats a lot of traveling for one little girl, but i think we continue to do it because she has been an angel on every flight! Hope she keeps that up....
Now onto the trip:
Tuesday flew in, hung out with Cindy and went to dinner, then I went to the bridal shower.
Wednesday was filled with job searching and errands getting ready for the wedding. That night we went to eat dinner with the Onofrio's (cant believe we didnt get a pic!) Was good to catch up and we are excited to move back to UT and see them more often.
Thursday hung out and then went to dinner with Cindy, Wallys fam, and my parents at Mimi's.
Lyla and Crew caught up, talking about keeping balanced while walking and what kind of things around the house taste best
Sadie showing how to "open wide" for some yummy food
That night we went up to Penny's to stay so we could be closer to Logan. Jace and Justin LOVED playing with Lyla
Friday was the big day
Funny, kind of, story: Ty was supposed to be there to watch Lyla outside the temple. He was late, so in order to catch the sealing we had to hand off Lyla to a stranger (who happened to be waiting outside for a couple to come out and her name was also Lyla) for about 10 minutes in between before Tyler got there...all turned out ok though and Lyla didnt even seem to care or notice
Lyla enjoyed being outside and cruising the temple grounds. She found her shadow for the first time and kept looking back at it and trying to follow it, so cute.
Friday night was the dinner at the church, we ate fajitas and heard childhood stories about the couple
Saturday: During the day we took advantage of the sunshine and went to the farm at Thanksgiving Point
Lyla got her first PONY ride and loved it. Part of the time she was bouncing up and down with the horse and smiling away feeling so big
Put the girls in jail for awhile
Saw some funny lookin animals there:
Saturday Night: Reception
All the nieces and nephews. Derek's side: 1 Libby's Side: 12?
Good but busy weekend! Yay for bringing on more family and fun to the Green's
Lyla went down the slide for the first time
Claire wanted to try on Lyla's sunglasses too
Jackpot: found a pinecone
I think that the park will be our favorite place this summer. Can't wait to get out and enjoy the sunshine. Lyla already learned that she loved it and cried when we got in the car....

And sometimes after a bath you can squint and see a few curls in the back
She loved being outside and watching the ducks swim around
Can you tell she loved it?! It was about 10 degrees out, but "felt like" -2 because of the wind
Trying to warm up with dad. Don't you just love those red little cheeks and nose?!
Daren and Heather ready to go down
And so did the Days, but I didnt get a picture of them for some reason. I'm hoping for at least one more big storm this winter so we can go again!
Gets the cake! Super blurry from not turning on the flash first...oops
Tries a little bite...
Tries one more little bite...
Then decides to go all in, both hands and dig in. (this picture doesnt even do it justice, she was really goin at it and having so much fun squishing the cake and throwing it around)
Soo yummy
Briefly stops eating to give a cute face
Making sure she gets it all
Makes sure to get every piece and decided to lick the plate
All done..ready for a bath!
Made the birthday banner, turned out pretty good and excited to use it in the future too
The cake for everyone but Lyla. I had a lot of firsts with this cake. I made two different ones, lemon with lemon filling and chocolate with raspberry filling. I had never made a double decker, either of the fillings, or buttercream frosting before, but all turned out pretty well and I had so much fun making it. I used some cake "tattoos" to spice it up
Lyla's very own cake
Everyone who came and celebrated! So much fun
Opened a few presents, she has been wanting to play with this all week
Got some cool things from gma and gpa green
