Sarah's family gathered on the porch for a Sunday photo. Love the tie-bedecked boys (with their white ankle socks). So adorable!!
Jeff was supposed to go back east for a work trip, but his flight got delayed. That made us all happy because he was able to go to church with his family and us.
We went to North Ogden to Andy and Amanda's house for the Sunday family dinner. Their yard is so fun for the children.
My cousin Angie and Vinicio and their four children were there.
Hailey and Elijah had driven down from Idaho to attend the dinner. They know where to find good food! It was fun to get to know Elijah a little bit as we had never met him before.
Dessert is always a highlight for the children when we sing and the birthday person blows out the birthday candles.
Time to play with the chickens.
One day when Rebecca brought her children over to weed, we kept Brooke for an extra few hours.
She enjoyed going to the nursery to help Glen pick out plants to plant in the yard. She was a great helper to us that day as she helped us do various projects around the house and the yard.
The deck needed repairing. It was the best idea ever to get our wooden, slivery deck replaced with a vinyl deck shortly before we went on our mission.
The little boys didn't have to worry about slivers and it only needed a little bit of maintenance work when we got home.
Enough with all the working!! The grandchildren were anxious to go to Lagoon!!
I took a cooling bandana with me to Lagoon so I could tolerate the heat, which was in the high 90s. I would resoak it with water any time we were by a drinking fountain.
I wore it around my neck. Caroline liked to borrow it and put it on her head to cool down.
The grandchildren enjoyed a good cool down by getting soaked in the water as we were nearing the end of our time at Lagoon.
It was a thrill to go to the Bountiful Temple once again. We love the temple we can see from our bedroom closet window.
One day I noticed something blue on a shelf in the office.
Upon closer inspection, I could see they were Jonah's flip flops. I enjoyed the fact he thought that looked like the perfect place for him to put his shoes. "A place for everything, and everything in its place."
Sarah had been doing so much cooking for us that we decided we would allow Chuck-a-Rama to do the cooking for us one night.
It brought back memories for Sarah who used to love to eat there when she was younger because she loved their mashed potatoes and gravy.
Her boys loved the slushie drinks.
