Learning as We Go
.
So, being first time parents gives us opportunities to make funny decisions. One such decision is waiting until ALL the diapers are gone, getting desperate, and trying to remember how mom did it with cloth. Harrison had such a moment. Thankfully we had plastic pants!
Harrison has finally received his first black eye. This is not due to our first time parenting. He was simply playing with Elisha's flat iron (cold). Hey, it was cold! But, he tripped on the cord and as he fell, the iron pinched his little face. So sad!
Jason rides his motorcycle everyday, and Harrison envies him. Whenever there's a rumbling, it's Daddy's bike. Here's Harrison practicing for the all=too-distant future. Oh, and of course he signs motorcycle.

Pine Valley Camping
Jason wanted a getaway campout for his birthday (August 8th), so we headed to Pine Valley. It was beautiful there. Good thing, too, since we took other people's advice in going there, not pre-viewing it. We were super lucky to have Jason's brother Jeremy, Brandon, cousin John, and Mom join in the celebration. (Sorry, I didn't take many pictures)Pine Valley is good, ole fashioned camping with tents. We were lucky to be in the equestrian section, so Harrison had fun visiting the horses nearby.
We had the awesome treat of a lightening-thunder storm. It was above us all night long. Harrison only woke up because of a wet diaper, not the pounding thunder and rain. Poor Mom and John got rained out and headed back home. Good thing they came back for breakfast. To keep Harrison entertained, we let him play inside the car, which drained the batteries.
Harrison is obviously not used to long sleeves:)
Waking up with Mommy & Daddy

Great Grandma Kendall
We were able to spend some time with Great Grandma Clara Kendall (Jason's Grandma). It was really nice, and especially with her brother, sister-in-law, and sister visiting as well. So, we took the opportunity to take pictures.

McCullough Family Trip 2010
.
Every year Elisha's family, the McCullough's, plan a weekend to spend together. The original plan this year was to go camping, but all the sites were taken up or not conducive for 2 babies. So, Mom and Dad (Grandma & Grandpa) wonderfully created a comfortable family trip close to home the end of July.
Our first day, Friday, was spent at the Roy City water park. This was SO much fun and super family friendly! We all had a blast, even the little guys. Definitely a fun way to spend a summer day.
Grandma gave this swimming suite/life vest to Harrison. Mommy liked it for the sun protection and bouncy, but Harrison hated the extra padding. It didn't last too long. Guess he's not ready for muscles.
Mr. Tucker (5months) enjoying the water. He tired out pretty fast.
Harrison headed out with Grandpa.
Putting on the sunblock.
Tucker and Zjani so happy to be in the sun.
After the water park and getting changed, we all drove up to Deer Valley - awww, coolness. We just enjoyed the rest of the evening in our fabulous cabin (sorry, no photo. See the Jackson's blog for more). Thanks to Zjani & Jer for dinner!
Saturday we played in Park City. The original plan was to ride the ever popular alpine slide, but we all decided to check out the coaster. This was way fun, as far as scenic, but a long wait in the sun. Also, it was easier to control, and I was not afraid of sliding off the track like on the alpine slide:) Same price, too.
We (Jason & Elisha) watched Tucker while everyone else went riding. Looks pretty excited, huh? How 'bout that cool hat?
A very frightened Jason.
Cool bridge, which Zjani, who hates bridges, didn't even remember. Go figure.
Whew! Elisha made it back!
A Park City trip would not be complete if we didn't head to Main Street. We never buy anything, but it's tradition.
Hmmm, the new family photo.
The girls: Zjani, Mom, Elisha
Thanks again, McCullough's, for a wonderfully lovely weekend:)

Nothing Says Summer Like...
.
Harrison finally received his first pair of shoes (sandals), which were a great deal! He acted like a horse getting shoed for the first time, walking with heavy feet. He likes them now, and knows shoes, either his or Mommy's and Daddy's, mean bye-bye.
Jason bought this pool last year for our own personal cool down, and now all 3 of us have had fun. The water's cold, so Harrison (and honestly none of us) like to sit all the way, but it's still a fun way to play!
New shoes and swimming!
