Lemonade Stand

 This was a big one , the kids have been
begging to do a Lemonade Stand and
we thought Tyler's storefront would be perfect.

 It was, the kids made $60 from lemonade sales,
cookies and a few generous donations.

Utah with the 'uncles'

 With so much family in Utah we had to 
split our days.
We met up with Todd, Tyler and Trevor
and headed up to the beautiful Sundance Resort.
 We rode the chairlifts to breathtaking views

 at giant cookies and bottled sodas
 and then we hike in Provo Canyon.
 So beautiful, so fun and the water was so cold.

 Even this little man got in on the action.





 We finished off the afternoon with a walk
and snow cones.

 Oh, and thrift stores of course.




 We hit the Nicklecade
 and got in some serious gaming.


 Literally, we wiped ourselves out.

 We ended with a sleepover and
checking things off our Summer Bucket List.

This is the place!

 We met up with Grandma Teri and Grandpa Steve
at the "This is the Place" Monument and Pioneer Village.
I am so glad we did.
We didn't even scratch the surface of this park
 but I learned a lot and was so impressed with the whole 
experience.

We found Captain Bunker of the monument

Utah with the Bunkers!!


 ROAD TRIP!
We did it. The kids always surprise and did great.
It was me that got anxious in the car.
Thankfully, Trevor drove with us, so
I was able to tend to the kids.


Upon arrival, we received a yummy treat basket.
 The kids loved playing games with Grandma Teri
at the end of each busy day. Cards and Ice-Cream.
 Oooh, and cousins, playing with cousins is the best.
 A fashion shoe of sorts.


 We were super busy from morning until bedtime,
we really wiped the kids out.

 Grandpa Steve took us and the Evan cousins
to the local rec pool and splash park.
It was amazing.




That night Grandma hosted all the grandkids for 
a sleepover. Games, ghost stories, summers and a movie filled the night.
