Summer Sunshine

Next up we met up with the old roomies at Spanish Fork Reservoir! 

We do much chatting on Marco Polo, but it's good to get a little face-to-face time with them and to give our kids a chance to play together!

Next up was the Bountiful 24th of July parade. For people who like to sweat.

And for people who like candy thrown in their face.

We squeezed in one last outing with Teresa's family at Wardle Fields Park.

Lining the kids up tallest to shortest proved to be more difficult than anyone was prepared for.

 
I always feel like we have four sets of twins when we're together. It's so fun for everyone!

Newland amped up the summer party by coming to town! Within three seconds of his arrival, he and Carson were inseperable.

We went to The Treehouse up in Ogden for a full day of fun.

And a little work.

That night we went to the rodeo which was much more fun than any of us were ready for. I didn't expect a comedy show to accompany the cowboys, but I was laughing through the whole thing. It was one of my favorite days of the whole summer!

Just when we thought the rodeo couldn't woo us any more, they ended with a motorcycle trick show that gave certain little boys dreams of one day backflipping through an arena on a dirtbike.

Summer cool down.

As family started coming to town for my parents' talks and the reunion, we made our way to Ben and Haley's house. Jonah had no trouble conking right out with all the excitement we'd been having. His dirty toes and suspended foot are evidence of his exhaustion.

Haley won my boys over by showing them how to make cotton candy one morning!

Then it was off to meet up with the cousins at a park for the renioning to begin!

Jonah again tells a story with his sleeping positions. This time, his glasses are telling us he's ready to hit the lake!
