Family Reunions



The first week of July we went to St. George with my mom's family. This is me and my cousin Angie- she just had her third boy! Must run in the family. 

Painting sun catchers. 

My boys with their favorite boy cousins! 

This is most all of  my girl cousins. So. much. fun. 

(Alice and Spencer)
Around this same time we met up with my family at my parent's newly remodeled cabin for a quick family get together. 

We went on an awesome treasure hunt/hike down the ski run. It was a little long, but the boys hung in there and found all sorts of cool rocks. 


At church on the Sunday before July 4th we sang the song "America the Beautiful" When it came to the "for purple mountains Majesty ..." Jensen leaned over to me and asked why purple? When we came to this scene on our drive to the cabin we had the boys jump out and showed them purple mountains. 










New kitchen, bathrooms, carpet, flooring....

What fun family reunions! Glad you could get some good girl time there! 4 Boys--you are amazing. My one boy is driving me crazy lately--climbing onto the tables and counters, opening doors and causing major havoc anywhere he goes! I've heard boys are hard when then are little and easier than girls as they get older. Fingers crossed for both of us on that one! :)

And I was thinking the same as Cat's comment about the cabin! And, happy happy very belated birthday! Looks like it was a fun one. I'm glad you have lots of sisters to get your girl time in there too!
