Family Memories in July 2024!

We had a wonderful July, visiting family and having family visit us! We love the warm weather and all the water fun we get to have and wish that summer would never end!

Ben's cousin came up in July to visit Vernal. It was so fun to see her and the kids had a blast together!

These two cuties!

We were working on painting our table, so the kids had to eat dinner on the floor haha

Fun water party at Grandma Leah's house!

These two were getting up to shenanigans together 😂

Ashtyn caught a big minnow (a "biggow", she called it) in her trap at the creek.

We did a weekish long trip out to see Grandma Dee and Grandpa Luke and do some fun summer activities! It was a blast. 

These twins 💗💗

Ashtyn and Parker each made a batch of brownies for the treat and then decorated them.

The kids love the slowmo haha

Parker 😂

I love how Oliver will line up his trucks this way.

The first time Oliver let Grandpa take him on the motorcycle! 

(It's loud, so Oliver can have a hard time with it)

Ashtyn's chalk drawings

Oliver gets to pick two books at bedtime and he always picks two that go together in some way.

Oliver loves trailers and tractors.

"Baby Augustine"

Oliver saw a cement mixer across the street, so after watching it for awhile, he came upstairs and made his own "toy" one.

Family pickleball!

Ben entered three different pickleball tournaments in July and got first at two of them!

Ashtyn got to do her Broadway Beginnings class, something she loves. It's a week long camp that's two hours a day and they do a performance for family at the end. She looks forward to it all year.

And Parker and Rylee got to do the Broadway Babies class, similar to the one Ashtyn did but one day for three hours. This was their performance after. They both loved it and want to do theater class this year now.

At the end of July, we ended up getting sick with Covid. Luckily it wasn't as bad for us this time around. Oliver started with throwing up and then got a fever for a few days. 

While he was sick, he wanted to sit on my lap and watch garbage trucks all day 😂

Parker and Rylee also spent a day throwing up and Rylee had a fever the next day. Ashtyn and I had very minimal symptoms luckily. Poor Ben was worse. He never threw up, but he spent several days not feeling great. We were all glad when we got over it!
