{ lights at temple square and swimming }

My mom and dad and two of my younger brothers spent a weekend at a hotel up here in Salt Lake. We joined them for an evening to see the lights on temple square.





Orva loved looking around at all the lights and stayed awake for a very long time. Toward the end, though, she just couldn't keep her eyes open any longer so we turned the pack around and let her sleep.

* By the way, she's wearing a "popover". It's a cozy suit that has a hole in the back so it fits over her in a carseat, in the pack, or in a stroller. The hood is reversable so she can face in or out in the pack. We love it!





The next morning we went and joined them at their hotel to go swimming.





Orva loved the water.



She loved "kick-kick-kicking".



She didn't mind floating on her back.



She loved swimming back and forth between mom and grandpa.



She loved the splashing and being passed around.



She did not like being dunked.
