The uncles took the older children on a special loop.
Lillian and Amelia like jumping off the rock.
Rest stop and photo op.
Little John and Michael John. Big Cottonwood Canyon, the Spruces, and Brighton have special memories to our family because of the camping, biking, hiking, Beehive Camps, and families reunions we've had there.
Neal with Lillian
Taking turns jumping off the log
Jason and super baby Ethan
Brandon, Kate, Charlotte, and Melody with their new stroller.
The little ducks were very tame.
Little John liked the flowers.
Daniel with Kate and Charlotte in their new minivan.
Jaosn, Julie, and Ethan with the knight.
John, Amelia, and Lillian watched videos in the den. Amelia loves "Sophia" and Lillian loves "Dora." They would wear their Sophia or Dora swimsuits all the time if their mother would let them. Now they are wearing their shirts but they are carrying around their swimsuits.
Time to give the little ones a break as Brandon tends Kate and Charlot and Neal gives Anna some floor time.
Emily and Mordecai and the sign post for our reunion house.
Mordecai and Emily check out the lounge chair at the gazebo

Kira and Talisa attend year round school and so went to class during the day. Pretty Kira is in Kindergarten.

The shoe pile.
After family pictures, the hot tub was a fun reward. We also celebrate Ethan's first birthday with purple confetti cupcakes.
Hot tub activities were well supervisited by Desi, Mike, Mark, Neal, Kim, and Keith. Mordecai is looking directly at the camera.
Mike and Keith take a turn at shooting pool after the kids went to bed. The adults had a wonderful time playing games and talking with one another in the late evenings.
