Brigham City, Memorial Day 2013

It was nice visiting the Brigham City cemetery and remembering lots of ancestors, as well as seeing where Lorenzo Snow's burial spot is. The kids really love taking their time here and are so thoughtful.

 We finished our trip by driving around the Brigham City temple. This was our first chance to see it. What a beautiful place, and great way to end our trip.

More fun times together, and goodbyes... May 2013

 The "Cup Game"

 Just hanging out together. :)

 On a search for "rolie-polies".

 .... and time to say Goodbye! It went so fast. This is always the hardest part!

We finished our trip with one last visit up to mom and dads to say goodbye and see David! We went up to the house several times during our stay... I am not sure why I didn't take more pictures there. Mom and Dad have done such a great job with the house. It looks better and better each time we come. We really love the gate on the front that was designed by mom... with the words... faith, courage, and endure. The kids really enjoyed seeing David in his new "apartment", and its been such a joy to know that he is home where he can be loved and cared for and tucked in each night!

We love you David!!



Alecs Graduation Party

It was fun to get together for a celebration for Alec! I can't believe how fast these kids grow up. 3 of Lauries kids have now graduated highschool, and her youngest is 16!! I don't know where the time goes.... it seems so fast.

We were all so happy for Alec, and happy for the time we were able to spend with him, and enjoy his fun personality!

Brooklyns Playground

This is one of our favorite playgrounds... so many fun things... it really is a creative, fun park!

Scout Mountain

One of our very favorite places to go!! We make so many good memories here... its a true family tradition at reunions!!

 We got a tree swing up and going.... it took some creativity but between all of us we managed it, and the kids had a lot of fun on it.

 From youngest to oldest, all of the cousins are such good friends with each other. They love each other so much and made so many good memories together, and really take care of each other!!

 Danny really enjoyed keeping the fire going! :)

 Sterling cooked us up some special hot dots... wrapped with bacon, and topped with pico de gallo and the works! YUM!!

 I think the stick and pine cone creation was Kaitlyn's.... I love it!!

 We were so happy that mom, dad and David were able to join us at Scout Mountain. I know David really loves coming, and we really love having him there!!

 Ha Ha..... Bret saved us from the scout mountain geyser :)

So much fun! And so many happy faces.. we even had a marshmallow war, and the kids loved to go off exploring and having their own adventures!! :)
