Summer Fun


This summer Sharon, Bradley, Ainsley, Nicole, Avery, Bailey, Parker, and Jude and Dana, Gene, and Kailee came for a visit. Actually they came for Danica's wedding, but we sure enjoyed them being here. We had so much fun. Ryan entertained some of the troops here while the rest of us were in Mesa at the temple wedding and then that night we were all here for the reception in Show Low. After the reception, everyone helped us clean up. After we got back here to the house, everyone had the idea to go to Sonic for a drink. I decided not to go because I needed to put away a bunch of the wedding stuff, so they left. Then I thought, heck, they are down here having fun and I can finish putting all this junk up tomorrow. So I went down there. Can I just say they were rocking that place. They were all sitting in the picnic tables there in the center of the drive in and laughing it up and having a great time. It was so much fun. We did all kinds of things while they were here. We took the kids to a place to ride a horse and a four wheeler. Ryan arranged that. Jude was SO excited. He stood there and yelled "woo-woo" real loud and cheered on everybody that was riding. It was so funny. We played on the hammock swing in the front yard. That was a classic. I need the video of when we put Nicole in it while Ryan and Bradley tried to do a loop-de-loop with her in it. It was the funniest thing I have seen in a long time. Let me just add that we were just glad she that she didn't get hurt. We enjoyed visiting with everyone so much. The little cousins had a great time together I think. I hope it isn't so long before we can all get together again. Anyway, here's some pictures we took while they were here. Enjoy!

Good times, good times!! I LOVED getting to come this summer for the wedding. It is sad that we had to have an event to come out there, but I am just glad that we did. I'm glad that I could give ya'll something to laugh about with the loop-de-loop thing. It scared me to death, but I guess it was worth the laugh. Ha. Thanks for being such an AWESOME hostess. I hope I make people feel as warm when they come to my house as you do when people come to yours!! You are a PRO.

I re-did this post so I had to copy Nicole's and Taralee's comments. I didn't want to lose them and couldn't figure another way to do it. Thanks for reading, y'all!
