While we were in Utah, my awesome cousin, Janai, took some great pictures of my kids. They look so good on our wall!

Summer Vacation

We had a great summer vacation this year! We went to Midway, UT for a Woolley/Barnhart family reunion and for Grandpa Gene's 80th birthday. Bob and I especially like Midway because we spent some of our honeymoon there. Here's the quick run down of what we did.

• Stayed in a great cabin and the weather was perfect.
• We had a great party to celebrate Grandpa.
• Went fishing with Uncle Ryan. Rachel loved the worms most and liked to rip them in half for the fishermen.
  
• We did some fireworks for the 4th of July and watched the Midway fireworks from the hot tub.
• We went to BYU and the kids bowled. Aaron won.
• Rode the Alpine slides
• Went on a great kid-hike organized by Ryan
  
• Rented a boat and water-skiied/rode the tube. The kids loved that!
• We went to church and Elder Holland was there and bore a powerful testimony.
