July 2015

Emerson's baptism was beautiful!  Many of her cousins sang at her baptism.  We were so excited to be there and for the pizza party with our families afterwards.

Emerson's 8th birthday is the same day as Ethan's 15th birthday!

They are in Europe for a 2nd time during July.  sheesh

Katlynn and Jane also have summer birthdays!

We had a lot of fun in Sacramento visiting John, Amanda and Greyson.

We went to Funderland, a little amusement park close by, did a pony ride and played a little soccer at Land Park.

Then it was off to Lake Tahoe.  We spoiled ourselves and stayed in a hotel/casino!  We kind of missed being in a cabin, but the view and maid service was amazing!

They were having a celebrity golf tournament while we were there.

We had too much fun catching up with the Harris Family.  Liv and Lily were BFFs in 2 seconds.

And Steve and Eric were cracking us up the whole 2 days

I loved chatting with Stephanie, Ella is Aubrey's age, Anna had a great time with Maddie, and Nate was nice to Colton, who loved being with an older boy

We love Lake Tahoe!

We got to celebrate the 4th of July with our neighbors, as is our tradition!

Anna went to Girls Camp for a week

I worked in the kitchen with my crew

and Eric was with his crew for 5 days!  They went to see Inside Out, Colton's first movie in a theater!

He was amazed by how bit the Iphone is!

We also did a few camps.  Anna continued on as a camp counselor with Jane
Olivia and Colton took a 1 week swim class at the PCC together

Ella did a tennis camp for a couple of days with Hudson and Greta Acreman

And we also had a good time just messing around at home
