July Fun

Wow, it's halfway through August and I'm finally writing about what we did in July. July was lots of fun.

We went to Cris and Tiffany's new baby's blessing. They had a cute baby boy.

We went and visited with the Ostlers at their campsite up American Fork canyon. Jim (Jason's cousin) and Megan and their two kids were visiting from California. We had smores and dutch oven potatoes and desserts (yummy).

We went to lavender days with Alisha and my mom. The fields in Mona were all purple from the lavender. It was pretty. They had a brunch, josting, boat rides, princess tea party, western shoot out, and a climbing wall. Jason and I did the climbing wall. I was pretty impressed with myself for getting to the top. Here is a picture of Kayla eating at the brunch.


So, Jason was out doing yard work at night and came running in the house. He told me there was a skunk running around our yard. I was totally surprised. We haven't seen a skunk ever in the 9 years that we have lived in our house. Here's a picture of the skunk in our yard.


Elisabeth and Rebekah went to BYU Cheer Camp for a week. The had a lot of fun. Rebekah says she wants to be a BYU Cheerleader when she gets big. Total surprise to us. She is soo cute.

We went to Yellowstone for a day with Brian, Trina and Madison. I'm glad we went. The kids loved seeing all the sites: waterfalls, old faithful, painted pots, buffalo, elk... We have one picture with us all looking at the camera (very rare).

We saw lots of wildlife. We went and saw a waterfall and when we came back to our car their was a buffalo eating grass right by it. Wow. Never been that close to a buffalo before. The kids said that I picked the best parking spot.

We went to Afton, WY for a family reunion with Jason's family. We had lots of fun. The kids played together great. We had a talent show. Played soccer games. Went bike riding. Jason went fishing. Played on the playground. We went on a hike to Intermetent Falls. It was super pretty. During late summer it suppose to turn off and on every 15 min.


We are super lame and have no other pictures from the reunion. Send us pictures please =).
