We are having a wonderful summer. The first two dynamic pictures were taken by Kim. We appreciate her expertise.

Happy Anniversary to Keith and Kim
Happy 9th Birthday to Daniel. The celebration was early when his cousins buried him in the sand pile.
James and Grant built many "huts" using the banana chairs and cushions from the sofa.

At family dinner the children made up a game called "Emergency" where the victim had to be rushed on a stretcher to the hospital (hut) for treatment.
Lillian, Kira, and Keith are waiting in the "emergency room."
Grandma and Grandma had a fun trip with the Eliasons to Cedar City on June 25-27, 2015. The first stop was for Krispy Kreme doughnuts in Orem.
Kathryn Ann and John at Kanosh Cemetery.
After finding grave markers with the names Lillian, Victor, Charles, John A, Rogers, etc. Amelia was delighted with the flowers.
Grant and James were excited to catch many jumping grasshoppers.
Getting ready for a swim. They all have special swim wear that protects them from the sun. This is especially important for their outdoor swimming lessons and their time at the beach at the Eliason Family Reunion. Their dematologist father practices what he preaches about protecting skin from sunburn!
The Cedar City Aquatic Center is a state of the art facility with lots of different activities. The little ones especially enjoyed the walk-in play area. The lazy river was very relaxing.
Grant and James went on the tube slide eleven times!
We stayed in a vacation home in Cedar City.
There weren't toys with the house so clothes pins helped entertain the kids as well as hide-and-seek and Rummicub.
Amelia, Lillian, John with his froggie, James and Grant. This is a view of the outside of the house. We came in two cars. James and Grant traveled with us and the three little ones were with Mark and Kristilyn.
Amelia, Grant, James, Lillian, and John.
Lillian and Amelia on the play ground. Little John thinks he can do everything his older siblings do. The spider web openings were too wide for his little body.
Grant and James. Grant tucks in his shirts so he doesn't lose his shorts.
Most of the bikers ready to head up the trail into the canyon. -- Mark, Lillian, Grant, James, and Amelia.
The rest of us took a more leisurely pace. Little John's tricycle can be controlled by an adult holding the handle in back.
All the children like climbing walls.
Cedar Breaks

Feeding the turtle at the Saw's home.
Summer Fest at SUU.
Two-year-old John can be such a silly boy!
Saturday morning we went to the Discovery Park. Grant and Lillian help John across the swinging plank while Amelia waits her turn.
We had a nice visit with Lissa and Craig. They are standing in front of an exquisite pieced quilt Lissa made.
There's lots of fun things to do in Aunt Lissa's school.

Amelia and Lillian check out the tool bench.
Little John is enchanted with the cars.
