We celebrated Great Grandma Shields birthday last Sunday. We had a big dinner and party to celebrate her 88th bday!
It was a fun night with cousins, aunts and uncles. Grandma is the coolest, she is up for anything, games, camping, trips etc.. She has a wonderful large, loving family and we all are so happy celebrate her big day! 




We had a lot of fun with Marcus, Natalie, and their cute kids in Utah for a few days.
We went to " Jump Around Utah " and the next day went bowling and had lunch at Cafe Rio.
They are so great to be around and we really miss having them living nearby. 

Cousin time = fun Time!!!

All the kids had fun in the Hurricane simulator. It's their favorite. 

Bowling was a lot of fun too! Hannah is an excellent bowler for a 2 year old!

Wednesday we went to Park City and finally meet cute cousin Skylar! She is the most adorable little baby, so happy and mellow! It was great to meet her and see Mike & Erin too.

Thurday we headed up to the Spruces Campground and went camping for two nights with the kids.
It was a lot of fun, and the canyon is so gorgeous right now, just full of wildflowers. The kids loved sleeping in tents and hammocks, cooking on the fire and being together.

We played in the river, went hiking, fishing, played card games, told stories & jokes, and just laughed and had fun together. It was a great few days together. 

We hiked into the Mary, Martha, Catherine Lakes. Lizzie did awesome on the hike and was exhausted afterwards.  She hiked about 5 miles, without complaining. 

We had a picnic lunch at the lake and the boys fished. We all thnought it was a lot of fun!

So scenic and beautiful!

These kids are the best! They make me so happy and I am grateful to be their mom!
We all loved s'mores around the fire. Even Isaac with all of his missing teeth. 
Saturday we headed home from camping, put everything away, showered, did laundry etc... and then headed to Park City to see Mike, Erin & Skylar.
We did the Alpine Slide and then had dinner at a pizza place on Main Street. The kids all adore Skylar, she's a doll!!!

Summer time is so much fun! We wish it would last forever!
