Fun in Milville

This was a awesome trip to Logan! Rachel really spoiled us, with homemade bread bowls, candy, Eden's favorite popcorn that she'll come to expect from her aunty Ray-Ray if she's not careful, walks together, hiking, Mike's special salsa, and milkshakes galore! I love my nephews/niece. It was especially fun to see Eden and Elsie glance at each other unsure then take off to the play room. Those two have come a long way since 3 years ago when Eden couldn't even look at Elsie without tears. Thank you weather for giving us optimal bonding environment! On our way home we stopped by our ancestors' graves/memorial in Ogden/Harrisville. Namely for Pleasant Green Taylor and Clarissa Lake Taylor (whom Cosette was named after, as you can see on her headstone she went by Clara). They were Latter-Day Saint Pioneers and have given me a rich heritage to learn about. The memorial for Pleasant is located on a plot of land he owned that he donated to the church to build a chapel on. It's still church owned today. Just looking at these photos inspires a feeling in me that just makes me happy. I probably look at them twice a day.

Updates on the kiddos:
Eden: Her bike busted, she seems content enough to run around the quad however! And I don't have to cringe on all those fast turns she makes.
Cosette: Starting to show some frustration at a toy that is just out of her reach. Which is remarkable because she's so mellow I thought she'd not work up the motivation to crawl for some time. she's experimenting more on her belly, it's just so exciting! She's playing with her voice more too.
Micah: says he just produce and directed the best thing on his reel yet! a Fed-Ed promo.
Me: experimented in the kitchen this week with pears and apples (thanks rach). The applesauce turned out tasty, but the jam and pie could be improved!!!
