The kids love having friends over all the time. On this day, we had a bunch over. We set up the slip 'n slide and let them loose. And what would summer be without a popsicle (or two).
I was at the grocery store one day and saw these gigantic marshmallows. I knew my kids would love them, and they did. We decided to invite some friends over to roast with us. The kids had a blast, and got a little messy.
Here is C. She loves wearing her sunglasses all the time. I guess the fire was so bright she needed to have them on. What a girl!
What a yummy s'more.
She is even cute when she is a mess.
The last part of June, we went to a family reunion on my side. We always have a lot of fun with everyone. The kids had a blast playing in the water. They loved riding in the paddle boat. I think that T spent the most time on it. She didn't want to get off.

D hanging out with everyone by the water.
How many kids can you fit on a paddle boat.
Right after the reunion, we sent dad home to work for the week, and the kids and I went to St. George. We do this trip every year and I love it. I know that it is hot, but when your sitting by a pool you don't mind the heat. We had so much fun while we were there. We swam, went to the park, went to Toy Story 3 (which I loved), played lots of games, and were lazy. What more could you want from summer?
A cute picture of 2 of my girls.
This was D's first time swimming, and she loved it. She loves the bath, so I figured she would like it. Once she was in, she loved to splash and hang out. She just loves looking at everyone. She has really been a great baby for us. She is really easy-going and happy. She has been sleeping through the night since she was 3 months old, which is a dream for me. I couldn't ask for a better baby. She was great on the trip too. We were gone for almost 2 weeks, but she didn't seem to care.
This is a picture of C and her cousin. They are about 15 months apart. They love to hang out, and love to fight with each other. They had a great time together. It was fun to be down there with my sister and her kid, and my mom.
For the weekend of the fourth, all of A's family met in St. George. We had so much fun last year when we did it, that we decided to do it again. It's fun when we all get together, and there never is a dull moment. It's crazy how big the family is getting, and it is fun to see how much everyone is growing up. There is 16 kids between all of us, and still more to come. The age range is 13 to 5 months.
This is a picture of everyone playing "Mrs. Sally Walker". The kids loved this game.
Here is a picture of all of the kids. We have several pictures of the kids on these rocks over the years. It's fun to see how much everyone has grown up and changed.
Here is all the girls (minus 1 who was not feeling well).
Here is a picture of all the boys (one not wanting to cooperate).
Everyone wanting to help with the fireworks.
This is one of my kids favorite places to swim in St. George. Every 2 hours or so, they make everyone get out so they can check the chemicals. All the kids lined up on the edge, and I thought it was such a cute shot.
SMILE!!
C is getting pretty brave in the water. She is excited to start swim lessons once the kids go back to school.
T and A taking a little nap by the pool.
C loved the slide. She got in trouble for going down head first.
I guess we tired her out.
