We had a BLAST this 24th of July. Steve's sister Lora was able to come to Utah from California with 2 of her girls this year. It was so fun seeing them again (it had been over a year since we saw them last!) We had fun swimming, fishing, watching fireworks, going to Liberty Park, swimming some more, sleepovers and more. It was fun to get together several times with Steve's family. Here are several pictures from our events that weekend...
The first day Lora, Kelsie and Katie arrived we went swimming. Cheri and some of her family came down including the little kids - Maxwell and Lexi. All of the kids had a blast being together. After swimming we came back to our house and had "Miller Burgers". If any of you are interested in a new recipe let me know...I am a new fan - so good! After dinner Lora headed to the Kenny Chesney concert with Cheri (LUCKY!). We had the kids over for a sleepover - Kelsie, Katie, Maxwell and Zoey. They had so much fun together.

Zoey was quickly attached to Lexi - she loves little babies (although Lexi is 2 and a 1/2)
The 4 kids sleeping. They were so good. We turned on Monsters about 9:30pm and we came out to check on them about 11:00 they were all asleep.
On Friday the 24th, we spent more time at the pool. It was such a hot weekend the best thing to do was either stay inside air conditioning (boring!) or go to a pool. That night we went down to Liberty Park. Grandma Donna's house (Steve's sister Cheri's mother-in-law) is right across the street so it makes parking and finding spots to watch the fireworks very easy. The kids (& Lora) had fun blowing bubbles while we waited for the fireworks. We walked over to the park for a little while but it was so CRAZY busy...it was hard to even move around.

On Saturday we went to Silver Lake (up AF canyon). It was so beautiful. The fish were not biting...could have been the rocks the kids were throwing in the lake that kept them away :) But we all had fun and enjoyed being together.

Lexi loved playing with Macey... and I think Macey liked being outside.
It was such a beautiful day...Steve and I are going to try to get up there again this year...and maybe really catch some fish this time!
Steve hoping some fish will eat the bait...him and Ryan were pretty good sports since the kids wanted to keep throwing rocks in the water.

So Beautiful!
Cute Lexi again...
It was a HOT day...we loved it when we got a little cloud cover.
Katie & Maxwell playin' in the water...right next to Ryan's line...
We had such a fun weekend with family. We hope next time Lora can bring all 5 of her girls!

I think you forgot the best part of that weekend! Wasn't it seeing the Johnnies at Cabelas? I'm totally depressed that your post wasn't about us:) After all, we are family! We were in your wedding pictures:)
