My Parent's New Resort

So, my parents FINALLY got up and left California. They found a new home in Saratoga Springs, Utah, right on the lake. It's absolutely beautiful, and great weather with breezes from the lake. My mom finally has a home that will fit her whole family when we come home, and more. Her kitchen has BEAUTIFUL views of the lake and the mountains right behind. We felt like we were at a vacation rental the whole time. At the beginning of August, they had a big gathering to celebrate their 39th wedding anniversary, their new home, AND my Grandmother's 90th birthday party. We had many guests, many family members and past friends from Mass., Calif., Idaho., Utah., etc. We really enjoyed our stay, and all the millions of nieces and nephews running everywhere, making lots of noise, and enjoying one another. It was a lot of fun.

SO Taylor loves to suck her thumb.. which is great - she pacifies herself... and she also puts her other hand up above her other hand when she's tired.. we think to feel her breathe out of her nose - it must be comforting.. SO CUTE
