The Heber Creeper....choochoo

The Heber Creeper

On Laber Day we went up to Heber City and rode the Heber Creeper.


Mom, Nate, Rena, and Jared....
Grandma & Nate on the train.

Mom, Dad, Sydney, Mike, and our family drove up to Heber on Monday to go on the Heber Creeper. Megan had to work so she couldn't come. :( No one had the exact address so we had some detors, but as you can see everything worked out.

Nate was so excited when he spotted all the trains. We walked around looking at all of them while we waited to board.

Once we were all on we left the station for the hills. It was very beautiful, diffrent then the Red Woods train rides we have been going on at home. One cool thing was we could walk up and down and all over the train. As you can imagin Nate love that and drug Sydney, Mike, and Ma around several times.

We really enjoined being on the Caboos on the way back to the station.

Nate took Sydney all over the Train. He loves trains so this was so cool.

After the train ride we went and ate.
Here is Nate and Grandma at the Dairy Keen, where we had lunch. It was full of
trains so Nate kept busy playing instead of eating.
We had a great time and have now many good pictures and memories of our
train ride with the Demings.

Here we are having fun with our Friends & Family!!!





Our Visit

We enjoyed our time with our Grandparents.

My grandparents have done a ton of work on there yard, as you can see it looks great. Last time we were there it was all still rocks and dirt. Now they have a beautiful fountain in the backyard and many


beautiful flowers. Nate loved the fountain.We also got to see the work they had done on there second Kitchen, it all looks so good.

We enjoyed good conversation and great food.

Now & Then


When we lived with mom and dad, when Jared was finishing his last year in school, one of Nate's and Grandma's favorite things to do together was to go out and mow the lawn together. Nate would sit on Grandmas lap and ride with her. Well, since we moved out here to CA Nate has missed doing that with his Grandma.

Now
While we were home visiting this last trip Nate got to mow with his Grandma again. Of course he is bigger and heavier, but they still had a blast. Grandma even let Nate steer on the straight areas. I think she is trying to get him interested in the thrill of driving at a young age. Watch out World.

The Bonfire

The night before we left mom & dads we had a big bonfire in there backyard and roasted hot dogs and then had smores. It was so much fun to hang out and goof around together. Everyones kids are getting so much older and so cute. It was fun. Nate loved playing with his 2nd cousins. Especially Jacqueline, she is his favorite. If he could he would follow her everywhere and mimic whatever she was doing. It's nice having Blake & Tina's family so close again. Having them at the parties brings such a liveliness, it's the best. We miss our families, it was such a treat to get this time with them.
