Fun Week!

Sorry the post is so long but I've divided it up so hopefully it isn't too overwhelming.

Back to School Family Party
This was a party, last Tuesday, put on by the city and everything was completely free. David and I saw a Black Hawk helicopter land while we were in the park in the morning(while they were getting ready for the party), and then we went back with Scott at 5pm for the free sloppy Joe dinner. We also got free popcorn and cotton candy. They had tons of games with prizes and moonwalk bouncy toys but we thought David was still a little young for those. They did however have a fire engine spraying water over part of the open field which Scott took David in.
and...he didn't like it very much. We also went on the carousel which was free for the day and it was David's first time. He loved it, but the look he has in the picture was how he looked the whole time. Just very focused I guess. Lot's to take in. =)

Family Reunion
Thursday and Friday we were in Park City for the last couple days of Scott's family reunion. We had such a good time. It was so great to see everyone again and we wish we had been able to go for the whole week. But atleast we made it for a little bit of it. I also had the opportunity to take the family photos there so that was a good experience for me. I think I've decided that taking a picture of 13 kids is not for me! lol. Anyways, we had a great time and here are some pictures of the fun.

Most of us went swimming Thursday afternoon and it was so much fun! David was totally different than he was last time he was in a pool. He loved being tossed in the air and spun in cicles, and also had fun floating like an otter(me holding him of course),holding a volleyball and refusing to let go of it.The life jacket you see didn't last long because it's still too big for him. His cousin Jenna ended up making good use of it.

Grandma Sorenson provided the makings for all the grandchildren to make their own card. Here, David is making his with my help.
Visiting Family
Since we were in Park City we arranged to get together with a couple of my cousins and their kids at my Aunt and Uncles house up Emmigration Canyon. The last time I saw them was 2 years ago(even longer for my cousin J who was there) so it was so good to see them again.

My Aunt Jaylene and cousin Stephanie playing with Sydney.

She was all full of smiles and cute faces for them!
David found their piano and thought it was pretty cool. He even sat on the keys a few times.lol. Don't worry, they didn't mind cause they have a really nice piano upstairs!
Our family.
Ok, in this picture it's me with Sydney and David, my cousin Katie with her two kids Emma and Bruce, and my cousin Stephanie(pregnant due in November!) with her little girl Kaylee. The three of us grew up together on the "farm" and I am so glad we are still great friends even though we aren't necessarily neighbors anymore. Last time I saw them Stephanie and I were pregnant with our first, and Katie just had little Emma. How things change in 2 years!
David on the drive home. After David fell asleep, I was bored so I started taking random pictures of cars and business's and things with a long shutter speed( about 3 seconds). It kept me entertained for a couple of hours!

This last one is of the Rexburg Temple

Birthday Party
Sunday evening we went to David's friend Tanner's 2nd birthday. It was fun to relax outside in the shade and chat while the boys played on all the cool toys the neighbors had. Our husbands were also there and some other friends, I just didn't get many pictures.
