I guess I will start out by saying that we had such a great trip to Utah and had so much fun with family and friends! We basically spent the whole month of July in Utah...by we I mean the kids and I. Neil came out for the last week that we were there. The car rental company accidentally zeroed out our bill after we returned our car, so we ended up getting a free car rental for the month...what a nice surprise!
Hanging with the family playing psychiatrist.
Cute little boys watching Hot Wheels: Battle Force 5
Every time we head out to Utah we hit up Sugar House Park so the kids can play on the hills. We used to go there on Sundays when Kennedy was little. This time we met up with Stacey and Aiden then went to lunch and to an inflatable jump around place.
This was our first trip meeting Lyla. We all loved her and had so much fun with her, Jeff & Andrea. They live with my mom so we were able to spend a lot of time with them and their little cutie.
She had a little static from the trampoline.
Hollywood Connection Day
We did a lot of park days with friends.
Anji, Danielle, myself, and Kellie

Not sure what the girls were doing...by the look of London's eyes it may have been something a little freaky.
Fireworks on the 4th of July....we had our own fun. I stepped out of the dancing so I could take pics.
There was some hip-hop, tango, 80's, 90's, Michael Jackson's Thriller...

Alpine has a new park with a splash pad that is 1/2 mile from my moms house...we walked there SOOO many times and always had fun.

| 4th of July Parade in Provo |
 |
| A place where I would lay when I was little. With all of the things that we did while in Utah, this was one of the kids favorite things. We played there for hours. When I was little there was a lot more open space and fields but now there are so many houses. |
 |
| Old tree house |
 |
| Cannon would pick these any time he would find them...they are so big in Utah. I also got my kids to eat wild wheat...something we used to always do. |
 |
| Alpine Cemetery |
 |
| Love the views |
We thought that it was interesting that the first man to be buried in Alpine was from NC.
