Last week in UT

So I didn't take a whole lot the last week but we had a great time! No one got sick either.  WOWSERS! North Shore Aquatic center, so fun! We took the kids down the slide so many times.

 

 Brady, Mary, Maycee, Luke.

 We got some chairs for my Mom and Dad for their Anniversary.  We LOVE you Mom and Dad!

 Went to the Rodeo.

 She is 6 months now, the day we drove home.

 Roy Aquatic Center, Gibson Reunion.

 Brent, he is the one that rides on top of the water clear to the rope.

 Brigham got pretty good at it too.

 Joe too, he sprayed so many unexpecting people!

 Aunt Shan and Sarah girl.

This is not as impressive as it was in real life.  On our way home, in Kansas, so pretty and kind of scary too. It was right after this that our AC started making the Suburban make horrible sounds, we had to quite using it. So the next day was 8 hours of very hot car riding.  Wasn't too bad until 1, but we didn't get home til 5.  Ugh.  We used wet wipes and dipped them in the cooler. Marjorie loved sucking on them. I am sure it wasn't sanitary but it got us through.  :)

We got to visit our West Point 5th Ward one of the Sundays.  Jilynne Thayne was one of the speakers, she just got home from her mission.  I taught her when she was 12. So fun to see all of them again.  So many kind of wonderful friends there! 

We had some get togethers and got to visit with some friends, sad to miss some others.  We weren't able to go camping this year, I just can't figure out how to do it with 6 kids and only a Suburban--that is full with just us. We miss the Uinta's but we will go next year for sure--some how!

While doing the first load of laundry after being home, it BROKE. So now we are waiting for our new one to come. So glad my mom did so much of ours before we left!

Second week of UT

 

We spent the second week in St. George and Vernal, visiting most of Joe's siblings and Mom. We had a GREAT TIME!   We went swimming at least 3 more times. Lots of swimming this summer!

 

 Grannie and Marjorie! 

 Angie heard of a spot on the river that was fun to play in,  it was SO MUCH FUN! We all enjoyed it!

 Monte, Blakely, Spencer.  Angie's sister-in-law Stacy and her kids came too.  They are the same ages as my kids--well 3 of them!

 Brigham in the blue, and Trystan on the rocks.  I think that is Monte in the bottom right.

 Aunt Angie and Mags.

 James and Joe playing in the waterfall.

 Courtney and Josh got married in the Vernal Temple!  It was beautiful, so glad we could be there.
Sarah was SUPER tired, hot, and hungry.

 This was the best they could do at the moment.   It was hot (like a whopping 87) and we were hungry.

 Their cute reception.  It was a great atmosphere, and we all had a good time!

 Spencer and Sawyer.

 Hanna and Walker.

 Connon and Walker, I don't know why I didn't get a better pic of Connon and Toni.

 Sarah, Mary, Joseph, Christopher, Daniel (Sherrie and 4 of her 5 made it to Vernal too, didn't get a pic of Abriel. BOO!), Brigham, Lucy, Bridger and his friend.

 Joe and Sherrie.

 Our kids had so much fun dancing!

Josh and Courtney were great sports too and danced with them a LOT!!!

Congratulations! We got to go to the Aquatic center with those cousins too!

First week of UT

I took way more pics the first week than I did the next two. Ooops!  Jace and Spencer's creations.

 Mary and Maycee were inseparable!

 A huge buzzard hit our car right on the front, thankfully didn't break anything, on our way to UT.

 Going for rides in the green truck, still a favorite for my kids.

 Sarah learned how to ride a bike and Mary got way better at it!

 Duke the new puppy and Lucy.

 Brigham pulling a Brent face.

  The annoying eating pictures...
hee...hee...

 Gma Great and Margie!

 Sarah was Gpa's buddy the whole time!

 I only posted this because I thought the faces Mom and Haylee were pulling were hilarious, especially since they look exactly the same!

 Hayden just got home from his mission to Mexico and Mom had him share some of his experiences for a combined Family Home Evening.

 Aunt Haylee and Marjorie!

 The hammock Hayden slept in or a new one like it.

 Tags to wear to church!

 Swimming at Sharlan's!  Look at that view!

 Luker's!

 Brady, Sarah, Luke, Maycee, Mary... all starting K except Sarah!

 Spencer on the slide... trying to glide across the top of the water.

 The kids rode in the 4th of July parade at the West Weber Church.  Shan, Haylee and I ran a 5k together that morning.  So fun to run with my sisters!  First time too, hopefully not the last!

 Logan, Lucy, Mags, Spencer, Trevor, Brigham.

 Jace, Sarah, Mary, Luke, Maycee, Brady.

 Eating Gma's yummy homemade jam!

 Great Great Gma Brown and Marjorie.  I worked on a book for her so much the first week, it was crazy. I will hopefully get more pics from this reunion soon.  I didn't take very many. But my cousin did.

This was the first time at the Roy Aquatic Center.  They were so happy I took their picture!   The first week was crazy but fun.  Between work schedules and napping for my girls=crazy.
