A few weeks ago we got back from a little hiatus to Utah. We primarily came to spend time with Grandpa Hall. There is always lots of running around while we are there. Here are some fun moments we caught, that kept us smilin as we burned tire marks in the blue van up and down I-15.
Every day we spent time with Grandpa and he was in pretty good spirits despite his pain. He kept us laughing. You are such a great example to us! It was fun hanging out with you Grandpa. We love you! 
The Man Cave: It wasn't long before Ben figured out where the men of the Faler household hang out. Mark, Charlie.....King Tut....the Bull, etc. etc. Charlie the cat says "Meow". 
Meeting our newest nephew Finn. He is SO sweet and so handsome. I didn't have a cold this time so I actually got to snuggle this boy. :)
It snowed 3 times while we were in Utah which brought pure happiness and joy to Warren. He made gloves out of socks and played in the snow everyday. He loved every chance he got to pelt dad with snow balls. Not bad for the last week of April. 
Giving my niece Angie and baby Evelyn a little pep talk....."its ok to come a little early....Emmy is here and she wants to meet you!" Angie was 8.5 months along. Isn't her little tum cute? 
Don't mess with me....I'm Mrs. T! Esssssay!
Ben's first real haircut......"hey lady....you ain't EVEN gonna stick that buzzing thing on my head now are ya?"
Warren & Ben taking their first train ride on an ELECTRIC train (as Warren deposed). It was exhilarating as you can see.
Ok, this lady at the Zoo had the best hair I have seen in a long time. I couldn't resist....
Clip 1: One of the kids favorite things to do is go to my brother Brian's house. He has big open space, a dog, chickens, a pig and a huge garden. Ben is so cute chasing the chickens and I sound like an idiot trying to be a chicken. Definitely blooper worthy. Clip 2: The boys playing in the tub happily after a LONG day. :)
We got lucky and caught a little spring skiing while we were there. We used to be ski bums but hadn't been in over 10 years! Alta welcomes Emily Vaugh Hall. ;) Waiting patiently....did he fall? Did he break his arm? Did he do a spread eagle off a jump?
On the lift.....fasten your goggles....we don't want anyone losing their cheeks!
I think they call that the SNOW....PLOW honey. He kept up pretty good with me most of the time. ;)
Post run#1 rest stop. Weston made me laugh more this day than he has in a LONG time. We kept getting noodle legs after each run and he'd ski right up to these chairs and say, slightly panting, "wanna rest"? While he was taking "a rest" he always kept his goggles on. I mean it was sunny and like 70 degrees up there that day and I think they were a little too tight. I'm just sayin but doesn't he look cute? I'm tellin ya he scored bucco points this day! 
While I really do think this picture of Weston is adorable....this pose is a little dumb & dumber-esque....would you say? 
Chillin at the park with my little sister Rachael & her baby Delilah. Hey Rach....park rule number 1 would be......
While we were there the renovations at Grandpa's care home got finished and he got moved to his new fancy room. Weston, of course, had to make sure all the furniture was working correctly before we left. He has been beggin me for one of these chairs ever since.
Last night before we left we whipped out the "Red Mule" for a little cruise around the Bountiful Hills. "You can get 80 miles a tank on that hog."
Bddddddddddt, Bddddddrttt!
Toodles! Until next time!

I smiled all the way through this post. I am glad you had such fun skiing with Weston. And I LOVE the last picture. You all look like you are having way too much fun! I can FEEL the goofiness.
And I can hear your voice in that picture with Angie. Hilarious.
Emily, you make me laugh! It's been such a long time but reading your blog really makes me miss you! You're so much fun. :)
Oh I wish I could've been with you skiing. Looks like you guys had a great time. When are those boys going to get together? I think JR needs some Weston Time
I LOVE all the Michigan gear! We are totally the same, I guess there is no going back once you've lived there. Maybe we'll join you in TX. Time will tell.
I'm sorry, your trip was fun and interesting, but the lady who obviously wanted to be in Hairspray had me!!! :) LOVE STUFF LIKE THAT!
The Red Mule is calling you out!
We miss you also.
