Tooele

After all the Brenchley family fun had ended, we headed out to Tooele for some Banbury family fun too.  We had a grand time with Gma Robbie and Gpa Chuckles.  Luce helped Gpa give Zeke a bath.  She giggled when Zeke started running around the yard and rolling on his back and shaking to dry himself off.
We had so much yummy food while we were there.  Robin always treats us to delicious food.  We made sugar cookies and chocolate cookies one night.  Here is Lucy waiting in anticipation for the dough to be ready so she can lick the beaters.  That's always my favorite part too. :)
Here's a cute little video of her and Gma Robbie...
She pretty much cleaned off the whole thing.  I took this picture right when she was saying "dough!"
Lucy found a little friend in the garden.  I was totally grossed out.  Lucy the bug whisperer.
On Saturday we went to a little tiny old mining town called Ophir.  They were having Ophir Days so we decided to check it out.  Lucy ate this whole snow cone by herself, and half of mine!  Luce loved the bouncy houses and even got me and Gma Robbie to come in and jump too, ha ha.  Good times.
They had some old replica houses you could check out.  They were so tiny!
Here is the inside...
Cute!
This is a replica of the old post office...hello creepy lady in the window with a freakishly long neck!  I told Robin I had to get a picture of her by the awesome mannequin.  She was equally freaked out by it.
This is a huge cart they used to haul rocks, dirt, etc.
We had such a fun and relaxing time in Tooele.  We got to see Chip and Heath too.  We played some Wii Just Dance which was super fun!  And a great workout too.  After several songs I started to sweat a little. :) Lucy thought it was entertaining and tried some of the dance moves too, until she caught someone watching her.
I'm sad I didn't get very many pictures of Lucy with Robin and Chuck.  I guess there's always next time.  I did manage to get one of me and Robin. I'm so lucky to have such awesome in-laws!  We just felt right at home with them, even though we didn't have Trey with us.
