We were lucky because my cute nephew Liam got to come visit us here in Utah for a couple of weeks! We sure packed in a lot of cousin time since we only see him 1-2 times a year.
We spent an hour or so walking around South Town Expo center to view the floats before the 24th of July. There were some amazing floats! It was really fun to see all the creativity. Laylah loved Liam and he was always so cute with her. The little girls liked meeting the princesses too. The bottom right picture are all of my Mom's 10 grandkids.
After the floats we headed up to the Mt. Aire cabin. I spotted the kids out of the window taking off their shirts and laying in the creek. It was so funny. Lily instigated this one. We spent the night. And that next morning Grandpa Don drove up and gave all the kids 4-wheeler rides. They loved it! And Laylah somehow talked him into at least one extra ride, it could've been two though.
We also spent some time at Jump On It. As always the kids love it here!
One day when we were at Corinne's house waiting for them to come back from a reception we took advantage of the beautiful evening and played on the tramp! Anyone remember playing 'crack the egg'? It was so funny to watch and remember playing it oh so long ago.
Kalel apparently know how to do a flip. This kid is always surprising me. Like when he said, "watch Mom!" and then did a flip into the swimming pool. I have no idea where he learned it!
Kyle jumped in on the action.
Kalel trying to be like Dad.
I loved watching him just have fun!
I love this shot of Laylah. She is so girly in her dress, shoes (which of course belong to her cousin... still very much a shoe thief) and pink bike.
Seriously? Sadly it really could have been any of them... Kyle says he didn't put his socks in my kitchen aid but... he does get busy and do things without realizing it. :)
This little girl is OBSESSED with helping me cook. She really sits by me on the counter around 80% of the time I'm cooking. It's kind of nice to have a little one (who behaves well) to chat with while cooking.
Our zucchini started to grow! Mmmm, love it.
I found Laylah literally asleep while standing by her bed. So funny.
We had some of the neighbors join us on our fun project of making 'elephant toothpaste'
The kid loved it. We made it several times using different colors. We love doing projects.
This picture of Laylah makes me smile. She is so much fun.
We went to Salem Days to watch the fireworks. Honestly one of, if not the best firework show I've ever been to. So close, so long and fireworks I hadn't ever seen before. I love living in South Utah County. It's still small enough to have fun celebrations and not have traffic :)
It has been hot in their bedroom this summer so she usually strips down.
When our plants started producing, they really started producing!
My sleeping princess. I love this shot. She fell asleep on her way home from the store.
When I came around to get her out and saw this. Little drool coming out of her mouth.
After our JAM PACKED JULY we finished it off by going to Idaho with my family. Which will have to be another post, another day.
