July 24th we had a party at Sara's house. Using her firepit, we roasted hot dogs.
Enjoyed spending time together just relaxing and goofing off.

The children enjoyed breaking a Pinate. They all took turns working on it. I think Trevor was the one that finally broke it.


Rylee and Trevor wanted to do the Pick my Pocket apron everyday. They enjoyed on the days I put money in it.



Back at Mueller Park having fun hiking and exploring.




Grandpa surrounded by grandchildren and loving it!
We took Rylee and Trevor to Mueller Park hiking one day. It is beautiful up there and so close to home. We had a good time

We spent time in the hot tub.


My favorite picture at the park. Only grandchildren were allowed in this picture.



Rylee had been told that I made wonderful sugar cookies and could we make some. Well guess what, they are alot of work but I found a place that makes excellent soft sugar cookies so I bought a bunch of them for Rylee. Sorry Eric I guess I am lazy in my old age.




I took random pictures of the family eating and visiting at the park.
Rylee enjoyed meeting more cousins. I think Lizzie enjoys having some girl cousins to hang out with.

Introducing Hunter and Trevor who are both 11. Trevor is only a couple of months older then Hunter. It was fun to have them in the same picture. We wish they lived closer to one another and could spend more time together.


Hunter had just finished dancing for us. He did a break dance at the reunion he had just gone to so we insisted he show it to us. He looked pretty cool!



KFC is great for family gatherings and the watermelon tasted good because it was a very hot day. Gabe was with us for a couple of weeks before he entered the miltary. We are glad he joined us for the picnic to see Jeff and his family.




They were fearless and went on about every ride once. They liked the water rides so they could cool off.
We also did a day at Cherry Hills but grandma forgot her camera. Imagine that? We had fun at Cherry Hills also. Trevor and Rylee love the water and swimming.

Jeff and Dori were returning to Montana after a family reunion on Dori's side of the family. We met them at the Bountiful Park. We had lunch, visited, and the children played for a couple of hours before they continued traveling home. It was great to have 11 of our 19 grandchildren together for a visit.


Waiting for dinner at Lagoon.



They did this ride several times. Trevor would have stayed there all day.




We were excited to have Rylee and Trevor come from Las Vegas to stay with us for a week. We are at Lagoon with Madeline and Morgan. They had a great day!
More pictures of our day at Lagoon.

Aren't brothers fun? Trevor was surrounded by women. I think he enjoyed himself. He won a weasel playing games on the midway which he loved!


Back in Cedar with our friends. We go down to the Shakesperean Festival every year with this group. We have a great time. Eric and Amy met us in Cedar and we brought their children back with us. We had a nice visit and had to have Fish and Chips at Brad's Place. He bought grandpa's business and the Fish and Chips is almost as good as grandpa's.



Another beautiful picture of the scenery up Cedar Mountain.




We enjoyed a few days in Cedar City in July and went up Cedar Mountain and enjoyed the beautiful area where we lived and had many memories of dating as teenagers and graduating from Cedar High School.
Our Mission President came home in July and we went up to Logan to his homecoming. It was a wonderful day sharing time with them and some of the Elders we had served with.

We went to Logan with the Roberds, a couple that served with us in Norway. They live in Alpine and we enjoy still seeing and associating with them.


A group of the missionaries that attended the homecoming in Logan.



Allie was here with us for a couple of weeks after her family returned to Israel. We celebrated her 17th birthday by having ice cream cake and going to her favorite place to eat out: Cafe Rio!
