Fun on the trampoline. They also enjoyed swimming.
Melody, Brandon, Charlotte, Kate, and Victoria flew in from Arizona on Saturday, July 3. Brandon had to return to work on July 5 but the rest were able to stay until July 8.
Because of the severe restrictions on fireworks because of the drought, we lit them in West Jordan. The Eliasons came over and we had a great time with smoke bombs, pop its, sparklers, and fountains.
James and Grant wore their Covid Survivors shirts from their Antelope Island by Moonlight ride.

Monday 20 of us met at Cascade Springs for a hike. It was beautiful to be in American Fork and Provo Canyons as well as to travel over the Alpine Loop down into Heber Valley. What memories!

Monday, July 5, was the official Independence Day celebration so we celebrated in nature. Brandon returned to Arizona. In the evening Grandma walked around the neighborhood with Charlotte and Kate watching fireworks.
Tuesday Melody and her girls spent the day with Kristilyn's family. The girls' hair shimmers like gold even in the shade. It is hard to get a picture of it.
Wednesday time was spent in Orem with Julie's family.
We were able to reserve a large house for our 2022 reunion near Bear Lake.
Wednesday evening Keith, Kim, Talisa, and Kira came over to visit. The little ones played restaurant then they played outside with the bubbles.
