Reunions and Summer Fun!

During the middle of June we spent a few days down in the land of the heat in St. George and visited family. We saw Ryan and Val's new baby. We stayed with Kristie and Kurt and their cute kids a night and went to church with them. Then we went to Ben's parents 50th wedding anniversary/reunion. It was a great trip. Highlights included the splash pad with the Rindlisbacher's, and camping out in the back yard. The pool that the kids played in at the reunion, the adult dinner party and chat to express gratitude for all of the wonderful things that Ben's parents have done for everyone. The family photos with the Gordon's (which is what all the pics are from), and the trip to the temple before we left where we were able to do sealings for the Bytheway family. (Relatives of Colleen). It was a good trip and I am so glad that we were able to go and see so many wonderful people and that we were able to spend time with them. Ike was also able to go on a hike with Ben and also he went repelling, we will have to post more pics later.

More Spring Pictures

Before I closed up our spring pictures for this year, I wanted to add a few more. On our way to California we stopped at Ben's parents home. We were able to spend a few days with them in their new home in Ivins. We had a great time going to their community park Easter egg hunt as well. We also were able to spend a day at the Beach before we hit Disneyland and had a wonderful time. It was a beautiful day, and the kids loved the water, and especially the soft sand.

Isaac's Baptism

Isaac was baptized on April 21st. It was a wonderful day. I can hardly believe that Isaac is eight-years old. He was a bit nervous and brought good ole bunny with him. I was a bit worried that he was going to end up in the water with him, but he left him on the chair as he went to the font. We had very special family come to the baptism. We are so grateful for all of our wonderful family and their support for us.

DISNEYLAND!! We loved it!!

Here are more pictures of our trip!! Thanks Grandma and Grandpa! We love you!

DISNEYLAND!!

In April my wonderful parents took us on an amazing trip to Disneyland. We had such a great time, and we will be forever grateful for their kindness and love in taking us there. There were so many cute pictures to choose from and I know it is picture overload but I wanted to post so many!! The kids loved the trip, and are constantly talking about it. We all loved Splash Mountain. Autumn was too small for it, so she rode on Winnie the Pooh about 10 times, probably 2x with each adult. Sabrina loved the carousals, all the characters and the haunted mansion. Isaac just loved it all but especially Star Tours and Indiana Jones. Tessa was a trouper and even though she didn't ride too many rides she took great naps in the stroller and smiled the biggest grin when she received Winnie the Pooh for her birthday gift, which was the last day of our trip. We will never forget our trip and the love my parents showed us. Hopefully one day we can go back and we will take them!!!! ,
