July in Review

July is always a fun month in Utah! Every year we can depend on a visit from our California families. This year Debbie's family (except Ryan) came to visit. We spent the 4th with them and it was a very fun day! I introduced them to the Candy Bar Game and we had a great BBQ! Along with fireworks in front of our house (which is seeming to become a tradition) and Smores in the fire pit to end the evening. Here are some pictures of the big event!




It was very fun having Grandpa, Grandma, Mom, Dad, Katie, Heather, Michael, David, Jefra, Everett, and Ellery there!



On the 5th we went to Richard and Susan's for an awesome family party! We had a very fun time seeing the family and enjoying home made Cafe Rio, Richard's rootbeer, and of course, Richard's special fireworks! (Which seemed to scare more than excite!) It was so much fun!


On the 24th, we went with Katie, Tami and their kids to Mapleton's Celebration at the park. I talked Lincoln into doing the dunk tank and he said, "Ok!" He jumped right in line and waited his turn patiently. It was the funniest thing all day! (That kid has no fears!)
Later that night, Katie, Lincoln, Scout, Tami and Meili came to do fireworks in front of our house. We didn't have our camera that day! BOO HOO!
Its seems the whole state shuts down during the month of July!
