Summer in Utah

This summer has flown by way to fast. We moved into our house on the 18th and had my mom and dad here for 10 days. Ryan and Julie and kids were here for two weeks, the Haman's came to visit and after getting back from AZ, the Jones's stopped by for a couple of days. So we have had many opportunities to take pictures which of course I did just that, took lots of pictures! Thanks to Gma and Gpa Davis and Emily for providing lots of entertainment for the kids. They had so much fun and made lots of great memories.

We went up to the top of Snake Creek to have a family photo session. The bugs were horrendous but the wild flowers were amazing, so we put up with the bugs to get some pictures. Hayden and Caroline won the awards for best behaved and happiest kids! They were great! Probably because they were held and didn't have to stand and get bit by ants like the rest of us. It was fun though and the pictures are nice to have.


Johnathan, Anna, Colby and Cameron. We always love spending time with the Haman's and hope that one of these days we can live closer to them. Thanks for coming guys!
Colby, Cameron, Jamie and Courtney Jones. On their way home from Canada, the Jones's stopped for a couple days. We spent one day at Temple Square. It was the first time we had taken our kids there since we moved back. We had a really great time! Thanks Daryl and Aubrey, come back again soon.

Gma, Gpa and the babies!

LAGOON!!!!!!! This was our first time to Lagoon and I wasn't quite sure what to expect, but it was great! It was a long day but the kids did great and we rode lots of rides. Cameron went on the 2 loop de loop roller coaster with Mark and I and is so proud of himself! Colby rode the old white wooden coaster and swore he would never ride another coaster again! They loved the Lagoona Beach and could have gone down these water slides for hours! We had a great time just watching them. The babies were so so good too. It was just a fun day that will have to become a family tradition.

Colby loved to be in charge of the babies. He sat them this way facing each other and wanted this picture taken. Such a great babysitter!

Again, water saves the day. Aunt Emily planned and carried out a huge water ambush that the kids were totally not expecting, it was great! The water fight lasted for two days! I'm not sure who had more fun, the kids or Emily! Thanks EM, lets plan another one next summer!

This box was just Nathaniel's size!
They thought they were so clever shooting at Emily from their "hideout".
Oops, these pictures are out of order but I'm not gonna redo them. I love Colby's face in the top picture.

Oh yeah, we also went to the ZOO, I didn't get many pictures though. This of course is the token Hogle Zoo picture!
