Idaho Round 2


We had our annual Fourth of July family reunion at my Grandparents. It was also my Grandparents 80th Birthday bash!   There was plenty of-

Horse petting



Hayrides

Tractor driving!  Yikes!

Horse riding 

Baby holding

Watersliding


Tube riding-
 My uncle Jack put together this homemade tube slide!  I didn't try it,  but dad, grandpa and the two older kids LOVED it! 





The Rupert parade is always a must when we go home for the Fourth.  The kids are in heaven, we don't have parades here in AZ on the fourth, must be the 115+ degree weather?

Love them...



Charlie was a little wary about some of the characters that were walking by, she wouldn't even take her eyes off the parade for a second for me to take a picture.  



There was some cool stuff in the parade, floats, horses, Uncle Kurt and Will promoting their new restaurant............ but there were also some pretty 'interesting' things passing by as well......

Blow this picture up at your own risk!

After naps, we headed down to the river in front of Grandpas yard and played in the sand.  Jake wasn't feeling well, but Alex and Charlie felt like they were at the beach!


The Harman family fireworks are A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!!

On our way home we stopped at Grandpa's and lit up some sparklers and pop its!



Char wasn't a fan but she enjoyed the view with Grandma :)


I didn't get any pictures of the family skits from the reunion but man oh man were they HILARIOUS!! I didn't get a great shot of the shirts, but they were very cool!! Since Grandpa Bob's favorite place is Disneyland, the theme was Zip-A-Dee-Do-DAH! Thanks family for the great time and weather, we couldn't have spent our summer in a better way!!!

Utah Round 2


We started off round two of our summer vacation in St. George with Mill and her parents.  We had a few extra days to get ready for the wedding and we did a little of every thing- 

DRESS UP
These two had a love/hate relationship when they were together.  They got along, or they didn't. But they were still very cute with one another.  


CHOCOLATE EATING

BEING LAZY

ENJOYING GRANDPAS FLOWERS

And of course, SWIMMING

Utah/Idaho- Round 1

We started our summer vacation with heading up to Utah and Idaho for my little sisters bridal shower and endowment.  
Uncle Mac and Auntie Meag showed us a good time the day we came into Utah.  They took us to get 'fluffies' (slushies) and to the Dinosaur museum.  (all pictures taken via I-phone, so they are a little blurry)



The kids LOVED the dinosaur museum, they could have stayed ALL day long!



Cris's bridal shower was in Idaho so we went and stayed with my grandparents.  Let's just say I didn't see Jake and Alex the entire time we were there.  All the grass and space to roam was just too enticing.  I have cousins their age and they LOVED having kids to play with.  Alex said she would even 'consider' moving to be closer to them, which if you know Alex and her anxiety about ever leaving her home in Arizona, it was huge! 

Grandma Tweet put the kids right to work on helping make the yard BEAUTIFUL for Cris's reception.  Who would mind working with that gorgeous view??



They could have had Grandpa drive them around in the Gator all day and been fine!


WE LOVE GRANDPA BOB!!!


I got to help Cris with her hair for her engagements and be their sidekick for pictures, I miss her SO very much!

It wouldn't be a vacation without staying at grandma Tami's for a couple days and swim ALL DAY LONG!  


We got to hangout with this beauty for a couple of days while they were enjoying their month long vacay!
