Max loves his daddy's getup. He often sneaks out to the garage and comes in with something of Kyrk's on.

Max wants to be just like daddy. Daddy and Max are playing and singing 'I am a Child of God' together.

Out on Utah Lake watching Daddy kiteboard.

Go, daddy, go!

One of Malia's favorite places.

Ally's first day of preschool.

Reunion at Spirit Lake.

Sand was one of the main courses for Malia this week.

This is Max on a toy jet ski. He is little, but.....

One of the highlights of the trip home this summer was Kyrk's parents 50 wedding anniversary!
It was so fun for everyone to be able to get together- we were only missing a few. We did a scrapbook(good job Niki!) and a video for them(I think I will be indebted to my neighbor Jenny for a life time!!). I went through all of Mom and Dad W's old photo albums and had so much fun seeing the progression of their lives. How amazing- 50 years- and just look at the family now. They have impacted so many with their love and selflessness. We are so grateful for them and all that they do.

This is my favorite one.

Daddy thought it would be a good idea to get the kids a LITTLE treat in the car on the way home. Next time I will be the one to go get the treats in the store!

Ally, Audrey and Bethany went to a princess camp at Hatfieldadelphia. It was amazing. They had a great time as they got to solve riddles, get potions from the witch, save Rupunzel from the ogre, learn a dance from Cinderella, and have the prince try the glass slipper on their foot and then dance with the handsome princes. The princes were pretty cute actually-I was ready to have a go! :)

This is Kyrk's birthday. He does not like to dress up, but I told him it wasn't about him anymore, it's all about the kids, and they could hardly contain their excitement.

Picking apricots at our neighbors. We got sooo many and made a lot of jam. We ate way too many apricots that next week, but we couldn't help ourselves because they were so yummy!

We went down south :) with our friends Rick and Cheri to watch Rick's brother in car racing. We have never had an experience like that before! It was really fun, and really loud.

These were the cars?? that he raced.

Earplugs for all. Cheri made flags so the kids can join in on the action.

Okay, so the earplugs didn't fit very well... but she wouldn't let me cover her ears. I was just praying she didn't have hearing loss. She didn't, I'm pretty sure she just ignores me now.
