Trip to Logan to Visit Travis, Crystal, Kylee, and Jaxon

Gloria usually monopolized the holding of Jaxon, but here is Melanie enjoying a minute with that sweet little baby boy!

Kylee and Drew were inseparable - - both had lots of crazy energy! They kept the decibel level pretty high all weekend long.

Mel accommodating Rhett's incessant need to have the knot in his back rubbed out. Russ, Melissa, Travis and Mel all did their share of rubbing his back. Yeah, sure, Rhett, it's not a swimming injury, it's just a ploy to get freebie back rubs!

Melissa with a mouthful of yummy onion rings and Mom.

The awesome hosts - - thanks, Crystal and little brother Trav! We had a great time with all the yummy food, visiting, late night games, more food, playing with the babies, sliding down the stairs (look below), watching general conference, chasing cows (you'll have to ask Rhett about that one), etc.

Whose idea was this in the first place? Brave little Kylee going down the stairs...

Wheeeeeee!!!

Glo's turn

Rhett's turn

Travis' turn (don't hurt yourself, buddy - - you're not as young and agile as you use to be!)

Melissa loving baby Jaxon

Unfortunately, Melissa had to spend some time studying (it's hard to get back into the discipline of doing homework after 20 years since last being in college!).

Grandma was so sweet to play game after game with Drew...
