Train Park

Pictures from Papa!

With Mykala out of town, we thought we'd do something fun with the Jacer Man. He's a big fan of the first one, so we really wanted to take him to see Cars 2. He was tired and only made it 3/4 of the way through the movie, but afterwards he was ready to watch it again. 

The movie was a little better than Chad and I expected, but it's still a far-fetched sequel. It was perfect for a little boy who's crazy about cars. :)

Trip to Utah

Grandma and Grandpa Lunceford took Mykala up to Utah last week for a Luke family reunion. I thought maybe she should talk about the trip...

I was playing with my Gramma in the car and then I took a nap. My Gramma was helping my Papa drive up front. And then I woke up and I feeled like I had to cough and I couldn't. And then I told Gramma, "I think I need to throw up." and we parked and we got a towel before I threw up. Before I threw up I ate strawberry milk and chips. My tummy hurt. Then we went on the road again and we were there, at Gramma Gwen's house. At Gramma Gwen's house it was night time and I had some ice cream and then went to bed. 

The next day I went swimming at Gramma Gwen's house. It was warm outside and so was the pool. And then our friends came over. Lucy came over and baby Emmy, and their mom. Lucy brought over a squirt gun and we got people wet. I shot Lucy's dad and he fell underneath the water. My friends let me keep a green balloon and Lucy got a orange balloon. I blew mine up all by myself! When it got late, we ate dinner and went to bed. I watched Christmas Belle. 

The next day (7/2) we went to the family reunion.

At the reunion, I watched the First Day of Christmas. I didn't do that one - all the big people did that. Then they had games to play with. And then we went coloring another person of us; we got to color ourselves. I did that 2 times! And then they had all the tattoos out and I got a flag on my cheek with fireworks around it  and I got a hat on my left hand. I had a heart on my right hand. My favorite part of the reunion was the tattoos and my dance. But I liked my dance the best. There were other dances. There was a Hannah Montana dance, a Lion King dance, and a Rapunzel dance - that was mine. 

I went hiking Timpanogos with David and my Papa and Jill and me. So I had a gorilla (granola) bar but the lady in the cave said I couldn't eat, so I asked Papa if he would throw it away. Hiking was a little hard and a lot easy. It was really hot outside but in the cave it was cold. The hike was a little flat. The cave had hearts in the cave and had water dripping from it. It was really cool! So I got cold in the cave. My hands were freezing. It was dark, but it had a few lights. Aunt Jill brought the light, but we didn't. Grampa didn't bring his scorpion light like he would, exclamation mark.  :)

I had some examples and I had one laffy taffy and then I had a chocolate covered to try with strawberry in it and then the first one was a jelly bean. We watched them make the candy. They put it in a round container that goes around and round and round and it spins and mixes it really really fast! Like this! Then it stopped. Then they made cookie dough and then they made cookies to put the cookie dough with. We watched a little TV. Then she gave us our candy maker hats (hair nets). They didn't want our hair to get into the candy. We had to tuck it over our ears so we couldn't hear. (Whispering) But guess what? I could hear!      

I went in the room on the 25th floor! We took an elevator and escalators and 11 stairs! It wasn't huge. It was big. But it had 2 beds. Papa had a fever so I slept with Gramma. That was the time I had allergies. I had them all the time I was up there. It wasn't fair of my nose because I didn't sniff in the cave so that means I didn't have to sniff all the time.

In Vegas I saw Woody and Buzz and the Mad Hatter. I also saw a woman wearing blue.

We went and saw the fountains. We watched it 4 times! Then we went to the car and back to the pyramid, the desert. Then this morning we packed up, all of us took a shower from swimming, and then we went on the road. I got home and I was so proud I was home! I could play with my kitty and play with Jace all the time now.

What I liked most about the trip is I loved doing my family reunion. 

I got home. The end.
