Utah! Utah! FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT!

Utah vs. San Jose

56-3

A blow-out, but still a fun game to see! I just love that stadium.

And my favorite part... the MARCHING BAND!! :) For those of you who don't know, I was in my high school marching band for 3 years. I loved every minute! Chase says it doesn't seem so lame when he sees the Utah band perform. He's still coping with the fact he married a band geek in high school. I think I was still cool. Go marching Utes! :)

On another note... Addie has taken her first steps and can stand on her own! Hopefully we'll have a walking baby soon! We'll keep you posted :)

Jungle time

This girl is so funny. The pictures speak for themselves. This was another daddy playtime extravaganza! Chase always gets the best faces from our little bug.

The lion was actually one I LOVED growing up. They're my favorite animal. As well as giraffes. I'm hoping to have an effect on Addie's choice in her favorite! Can you tell? Haha.

The State Fair

I'm a little late on posting this since we went ages ago, but I just couldn't resist. Adalee ADORES animals and so we took her to the state fair! Our good friends The Johnsons went a few days before us and got Avery (their daughter) a pillow pal, and so when we saw the booth we showed one to Addie to see if she wanted one. This was her reaction...

The girl loves ALL stuffed creatures this much! This one is as big as she is though, and let me tell you it was a LIFE saver on the flight to and from DC. She just loved snuggling up and sleeping with it! :)

This one below is Addie with the chicks.

She got a little tired after all the sweets, excitement, and crowds!

SO SO FUN! :)

My 2 favorite people in the world

Can I just say how much I love these two? They always make me laugh, and I hate leaving them to go to school or work! Who would want to leave this behind! This was them having fun without me! Chase and Adalee, you make my life complete and I can't begin to imagine what I would be without you. You are my motivation for everything, and I LOVE YOU BOTH to

Little 4-wheelin trip!

The Browns went down to Strawberry for the last little part of memorial day weekend! I had to work sunday night, and Chase had to work in the morning, so we couldn't stay long. (Just a few hours). We got to take 2 rides and stay for dinner though, yummy! Phil makes the BEST dutch oven cheesy potatoes. Here are a few pics. The family one of everybody was off the 4-wheeler. I put it on a timer and sprinted in! That's why it looks like it's so low! I think it's cute though :)

Videos!!!

Okay, these two videos are just so cute I had to share. Adalee talking on the phone, which she loves to do on her little fake phone! Don't tell her it's fake though! Then the smiling one. I mean, could my daughter be any SWEETER??!! I just LOVE her.

The Best Vacation of All Time

Well, the beach trip this year was a total success. We had SUCH a fun time, and this was the first vacation in a while that actually felt RELAXING. This is what our beach set up looked like. Jess and Evan brought a cool tent for those who like the shade. SO AMAZING. I love the outer banks. A LOT.

My sister Jess brought her really nice, new camera and we were taking lots of fun pictures. This one was us attempting a silhouette. I think it turned out pretty cool!

Addie is just so fun to throw! She tucks into a little ball, and we can get her so high! :)

Beach Bum, Cheerio fanatic, and sand eater in the making....

The peak of a meteor shower was at midnight on one of the nights, so we all set up our chairs on the beach to watch the show. It was so cool! We must have seen 30 or more shooting stars. Amazing. In the down time, we played with Jess' camera some more. This was using our phones! I'm the U. Of course. It spells DUCK, because that's where our beach house is.

One of the main events of the trip was giving my Dad his retirement gift. All the sisters made him a quilt and a movie to watch about his career and family. The quilt was of our family tree. It's beautiful. This is my Dad shielding his eyes because he was crying. That's the goal! Make him cry! He loves it :)

Then we took family pix in our red/white/blue outfits. I think this was our most successful photo shoot yet! All we used was a tripod! Thank you to my sister Jess, who set these shots up.

There sure are a lot of grandkids on the Hunzeker side!

Becky got stuck taking pix with the folks. We love you becks!

This is our golf cart that we use to get back and forth to the beach. We have so much gear and so many children, it takes a few trips.

Addie in the sand.

She LOVED the water.

Sometimes, when we had enough of the beach, we just hung by the pool. This is the craziness that is our pool. Just loco, but so fun!

That was our trip! Thanks for hanging in for the million photos! :)
