Utah

I feel guilty for posting on top of Jake's awesome post of India. So, if you haven't had a chance to see and read it, be sure to scroll down.
This is what we were up to during all that:

Slumber party with Jack- you know how slumber parties go...very little sleep but still a lot of fun! Jack is 5 months younger than Tommy and they're the same size. He's too cute!
Meeting cute baby Taft at only 2 weeks old, he belongs to Jake's brother Seth.Tommy was super clingy on our trip, partly due to his top tooth coming in. It's no fun dealing with a feverish and cranky child, but at least Rachel was entertained with grandparent and aunts and uncles.

All the Herway cousins with their Pop and Grammie. A real treat to be all together considering we all live in Belgium, North Carolina, Texas and Utah.
This picture is for Anita:Can you still say he does not look like Jake?

It snowed pretty much the entire 2 weeks I was there.
Which made for some of the best skiing days I've ever had.

Flying a kite with Uncle Dan on one of the not so cold and snowy days.
Tommy has become a real explorer. At least he tries to clean up his damage.
We enjoyed an early Easter while we were there.
Tommy probably had more candy than Rachel had in her first two years of life :)
Here's Rachel driving Lightning McQueen through the house. She sure gets away with a lot more than I did when I was growing up. She's crazy.
We sure had a lot of fun, and it was great to be able to see all my family and friends. We'll be out again for Christmas...unless somebody gets married ;)

I wonder who that somebody you are referring to is? We sure had fun while you were here. Jack and I are back to boring days! Just kidding...kind of. Can't wait for May!

Andrew would love that McQueen car. Grandkids sure get to have more fun than the kids did!

I love the pictures of Tommy. Did you Dad take them? Tommy is looking so old! Old and cute, of course.

Looks like it was a great trip! My favorite picture is Rachel driving through the house in Lightning McQueen :)

I absolutely love the picture of Rachel driving the car. And Dylan too would LOVE that car.

Glad you were able to be with all of Jake's family, that is a real treat.

Ok, I aquice (spelled phonically, don't know the correct spelling!) Dear Mr. Tommy is looking a lot like his dad. Loved your post and again thanks to you (and all your family)for your efforts to be with us!

Great post of India and Utah. I love both of you and your unique experiences. I had a great time in SC and now I know why you guys love it out there. I am totally ready to move. Seriously. I loved the the Southern charm, weather, food, and friendly people. You and Jake are smart and lucky! We need to plan a beach vacay. Really. Lets do it!

Mel, it was sooo good to see you while you were out here!

Can't wait to see you guys again, even for a quick visit.

Have fun in NC.
