*******

After getting all of these pictures on here IN ORDER, my brain is too tired to think of a clever title for this post.

Busy week, busy week, busy week... thats what we had last week. After my parents left we had my cousin Colt from AZ come to stay with us for two weeks. We all loved having him here and were sad to see him go. I'm afraid that I may have taken too much advantage of him being willing to play with Hayden all the time, but thanks Colt it was so nice having you around. While Colt was here he wanted to learn to golf and Mark was up for teaching him! After spending a couple of days finding Colt some good clubs, they went to the course at least once every day that Colt was here. I was never able to go though so I don't have any pictures. I heard from both Mark and Colt though that I should have been there with the video camera for the first time because Colt thought golf was easy!! Boy did he have a rude awakening!!

Anyway.... we really kept busy. Below are some pictures and narrations of a few of the things we did over that last couple of weeks.





Hogle Zoo, my camera battery died after this picture so it's the only one I got! Colt was a good sport though!!!


For Family Home Evening we went to the Open House for the New Oquirrh Mountain Temple in West Jordan. It was beautiful and was enjoyed by all. Even Hayden was good!



While Colt was here Mark and I had a mission.... convert him to be a BYU fan. Being the sports nut that Colt is we knew he would like to see BYU football stadium so we stopped by.







I should be embarrassed by this picture and truth be told I kinda am. But I also think it is pretty funny! At least he has the shirt on and at least it is not white!



As part of our convert Colt to BYU mission we enlisted the help of our friend and current BYU basketball player Logan. He invited us down to watch a scrimmage and was so good to the boys. My boys thought is was Awesome to shoot around with him before the game started.





4th of JULY
This was a super busy day. Our friends from Tempe, the Jones' came up to stay with us for a few days and we had a bar-b-q planned with the family at our house. I love the 4th of July and this one didn't disappoint. I didn't get too many pictures because I was just too busy.

Hayden and Caroline doing what they do best. Just being CUTE!

WATER BALLOONS

Party at the Heber Park. After the fire truck had sprayed water on the kids for about 30 minutes, Cameron discovered that there were worms everywhere. He was in heaven and was even able to get Courtney to help him save them.

Wasatch Mt. State Park


Sunday. Cascade Springs. Beautiful.

If you live in the Wasatch area you should really take a drive up to Cascade Springs.
Finding fish






Monday. Park City. Alpine Slide.
Wow. I did it. I actually finished this post. It's long I know, but I never know when I will be in the mood to blog again.

Especially since I have another extremely busy week getting ready to go to SJ.

Why is it that summer seems to be so busy every year?

April I love the pictures!! I'm sad I missed everyone, but it looks like you all are having fun. I love that picture of Logan with the boys. Did you successfully convert Colt into a BYU fan?

April thank you so much for letting Colt come and stay. He really needed that! I don't know if he is a BYU fan or not, but he is extremely fanatic about golf now! Thanks a lot, Mark. :) Your family is awesome and I feel like I owe you big for this one. Love you guys!
