Our Family Memories in June 2026!

Time feels like it is flying by! I can't believe June is already over and we're already almost halfway through July. We had a great month in June, just enjoying friends and family and summer. We also got to celebrate Parker's 10th birthday and Ashtyn and I got to do a little date to Lagoon together. 

The story behind this is a funny one. For one of Parker's no screens activities before her birthday, I painted the litte dragon in this picture but I am definitely not an artist and struggled with the head. Ben and the girls teased me about it, but Oliver loved it and traced it a whole bunch. For one of his no screens in June, he wanted to paint and he decided to copy my dragon. It's so funny to me how much he likes it. 


We did some more field trips in June, including going to Vernal's local history museum. It's a cute little museum and I was surprised at how much the kids loved it. They all liked it more than the Dinosuar museum.


We hadn't had the chance on Memorial Day to go visit Grandma Leah and Grandpa Gary's gravestones, but the kids really wanted to this year, so we headed over in June. We sat and read some stories from their life out of a book Grandma Leah had given us one year for Christmas. It was really nice.

Ashtyn and two of her friends XD


We also did a cousin Bluey party to watch some new minisodes. It was fun!


Even Leah liked watching!


Leah loved the rice krispie treats and would dance like this every time the music came on. 
She was also showing off and being silly for the boys, who kept laughing at Bluey and she thought they were laughing at her.


Leah loves playing in water 🩷





And watermelon!

We love hot dog roasts at Grandma Lindi's.

Father's Day dinner with Ben's family.




Leah loves that she can walk around and start trying to keep up with all the big kids. 
She loves to go into a room and close the door. 😂




Leah loves dancing and she loves Signing Time.


Leah got some cute little night gowns and I can't even handle her in them 🩷


Grandpa Danny gave Ashtyn a squash plant and she loves taking care of it.

They love Leah 🩷

😂😂





Leah put on Ashtyn's swimming suit like this 😂


Leah loves Aunt Melissa's chicken pot pie.


Oliver made this Pikachu out of blocks.


Leah's books!



We've had a crazy hot summer and we've had some crazy storms. 
This was when it started hailing in the afternoon one day. 

Ashtyn saved up and bought a 3D printer. She (and all the kids and Ben) have had a lot of fun with it. One of their favorite parts is when it "poops". 

The first thing they made, with the sample filament. 



Then Rylee bought some black and they made a lot with it while Ashtyn was waiting for hers to come.



I guess I don't have any pictures of the others, but Oliver bought blue and Ashtyn bought pink. 
They've loved making all sorts of creations and Ben has had fun with it too.

We had a wonderful month of June that I was able to survive despite not feeling the greatest for some of it. The kids have had a blast making new summer memories with family and friends and we're just enjoying the stage of life we're in with our growing family.
