Alexis is in Heaven/Utah. She just loves being here with some of her favorite people.
She kicked off her stay spending time with Emily, a cousin who is extrememly busy generally but had a free day. We took them to the church museum at temple square. It was really enjoyable and they just loved the Child of God exhibit.
Next, we went to a park where she played tennis with me and cousin Jed (Bridget was at summer camp). He even gave he a quick tennis lesson when I had to go check on Livvy and JT. She was sad that she never got to go play again.
Wednesday she got to go with Grandma Baldwin to get her hair colored. She loves spending one on one time with grandma and was feeling very special. She even got to help grandma go shopping for a new missionary outfit.
Thursday we went to her favorite thing. We went to Pioneer Village at this is the place monument with Jed, Abby, Amy, Grandma B. She had so much fun learning about the pioneers and participating in some of the fun crafts and activities. She loved taking a pony ride and even held the snake around her kneck at the petting area! (side note: I forgot my camera, so I will get a photo that Amy took soon)
Friday we got to see the Parker cousins and went to a spray park. Lex and Halely had fun together along with all of the other kids. Then Friday night Bridget got to come over to Grandma B’s for a sleep over. We made some jewel flip flops that turned out so cute!
Saturday we spent time in nature at Bridal Veil Falls and then Lex was proud to have accomplished the “Y” climb. She missed out on it last year and did a great job.
Sunday includes a BBQ at Uncle Brad’s house with more cousin time – what fun for her.
Alexis absolutely loves ALL of her cousins to death, they are definitely her most favorite and bestest friends!

Sounds like a pretty fun-filled week, with lots of good memories. It’s good to take time to make memories, they don’t just happen, you need to plan them.
