Surprise

This past weekend, I got the privilege of surprising my family in Utah by showing up for my Grandpa's 80th birthday party.  Unfortunately, not all of the Carbajal crew could come ... but it was definitely worth the quick trip.  I am pretty sure that every time I looked over at my Gpa, he was sporting a perma-grin.  And although we were missing my cousin Stuart, who is on a mission in D.C., it has been a while since we have even had this many of the family together.  It was a GREAT night!

I can't forget to post a pic of little cuz.  We absolutely love this little guy :) 

Hope you had a great birthday Grandpa

We LOVE you!!

So You Think You Can Dance?

Hannah's Dance Recital

Last weekend, was the big recital.  Hannah absolutely LOVES being on stage and getting all dolled up, so obviously she was basking in every moment of it!

Hannah's costume.  The theme was OZ & she was a Munchkin 

Some of the performers!

Hannah was so excited to get her "own" flowers

GREAT JOB Hannah!  We are so proud of you!!

1st Catch

Miss Liv caught her first fish, and then some.  To be exact ... four.  She totally skunked the rest of us that day.  Way to go little lady.  You all ready hold them like a pro!

Slight Elevation

While Sulema & crew, were out here ... we thought that we would show these sea level dwellers some true elevation. Therefor, we headed to Rocky Mountain National Park .  It is always a favorite place of mine.  The scenery is absolutely breathtaking and is so serene.  

There is a road that is only open from May until October called Trail Ridge Road.  It is the highest continuous road in the United States, and at the highest point reaches 12,183 ft
