Ahh Summer, Our Fickle Friend, How We Love You So....

We spent much of July at Grandma and Grandpa's house because the Tews were visiting from California! And of course we celebrated two wonderful days...America's and Grace's birthday. her cake was really fun to make, and although I have the delicious (and suprising) recipe, I can't find the actual website I got it from. But here is another version which is really close to the one I used. Check it out here.


And we had some quality pool time with Dad. I'm fairly certain that pool time with Dad is WAY more fun than with Mom. Sorry guys, as far as pool rough housing goes, I'm certainly inadequate.




And Grandma's homemade ice cream. Delish

Did I mention the NEW summer pastime? Badminton! We're grooming 2020's Olympic Team. I am in love with their game faces.
And of course what Grandma trip isn't complete without CHERRY HILL?
Love these cutie cousins, Maria, Lucy, and Abby.
The organ at the Church Conference Center.
The Salt Lake City Temple Spencer W in front of Spencer W!
The Church History Museum, which turned out to be a HUGE hit with the newly refurbished Children's Section.

Grandma with only part of her grandkids in front of the visitors center.The girls loved the Spanish Dancing dresses and video.

Another badminton shot just to intimidate.
And finally the kiddies at the Roy Rec Center Swimming pool, which turned out to be really fun! Go Roy, Utah. Who knew?


Whew! We had a great time...and that was just JULY!
