Summer in Utah

I realized I better start documenting our Summer as I have already started to forget things that have happened.  We flew out to Utah on the last day of Kindergarten. It is official Jack is now a first grader! 
We got in to Utah late that night and a very pregnant Kate picked us up at the airport. She took us to Cami's house where were all reunited. It was so great to be together with both my sisters!
Mom came in the next morning and then it truly was a party. 
We spent the next couple of days just being together and watching the cute kids play together. 
They came up with some really creative thing to play, which is always fun to see.


We met Grandma and Papa for lunch one day. 
Just look at that little boy's face. He sure is one happy boy.

I got the kids a sip n slide. We don't have the right type of grass at home to do this very well. 

Jack got brave and jumped off the dock at the lake. 


Grace has been such a great example to get Jack more excited about reading.

It's always fun to roast marshmallows and smores at the Archer's fire pit. Such memories!
This is a common sight. The kids playing with all their stuffed animals.




Putting on a puppet show for us.

The kids and Dolly the dolphin. I joked with Jack that we had to come all the way to Utah so he could finally fulfill his dream of riding a dolphin. 
Cooper making it rain!

The kids with the tepee cool Aunt Cami made. Jack was the lone ranger.

At one point he was put in jail.

This is probably one of my favorite picture from the Summer so far. The kids were playing in their get ups when they heard the ice cream truck. They ran out with their money still in character.  

Even better was the fact we had just got done eating and Jack had spaghetti all over his face.
