Edwards Haps and Mishaps

We are now back from Utah and it was a really fun trip! Sorry to all of those who we weren’t able to visit! With all of the family festivities we didn’t have a lot of time and we wanted to spend as much time with family as we could. Not only did Preston get to spend time with his grandparents, but also with some of his great-grandparents! We are all pretty certain that Grandpa Morgan and Preston were good buddies before they came here. He LOVED being with him. One day he sat with grandpa for about 3 HOURS…just sitting, talking, making faces…he didn’t arch his back to get down or cry or anything! In church, I sat Preston on his lap and he didn’t make a peep all sacrament and he just shut his eyes and decided to snooze, no fighting, nothing. It was so sweet. People raved about how good he was in church…it was all Grandpa Morgan.

One of the main reasons we went for the visit was to welcome home Shaun’s brother Erik from his mission to France. It was neat to be able to greet him and spend some time with him. Here he is with Preston right after coming down the escalator at the airport.

Our wedding was the last time the family had family pictures taken, and since then there have been 3 additions. Preston, Addison, and Burgess. So we went to have family pictures taken while out there. I think there will be some cute ones…the photographer also took some of individual families so I am excited to see what she got…here is a little taste, though I am sure hers will be a little better with the wonderfully deceiving Photo Shop Technology :)

What it all comes down to is this: we had a great time and the week went by REALLY fast…AND I ate so much that I am sure people thought I had a hollow leg or something.
It’s good to be back and get back into a routine. Shaun and I just started putting Preston to bed at 7. Why didn’t we do this sooner?! Seriously. He used to go to sleep at 9 and Shaun and I were out not long after. This is lovely to have some time to ourselves! I love it…I mean I love my kiddo, but I love my alone time too. Speaking of alone time…I am going to go enjoy it…..
