In the River with cousins

 
 Such a cheap and effective way to play the hours away--the river! We met up with Christy and the girls to play in the river near their house. It was a fabulous time diving, jumping, and swimming around. There was also a little park right there to play at until one was dry! Wynter was there, but she is the one taking all the pictures. :)

 Taylor and Brennan would start at the top of this ramp and run to jump in the foot of water at the end, I'm pretty sure the did this about 50 times.

 Skye playing with the water feature--the same one that Cameron is pictures above sitting in where he doesn't look to thrilled to be touching the cold water.

 The many faces of Cameron.

Play time @ the park

I was thrilled to be able to spend a few hours with my good friend Denise(thanks Denise-I stole this pic from your blog) and her adorable boys. Why we didn't take a picture with all our kids together is beyond me. Probably because between the two of us we have 8 children. They were playing great together at the park and it was fun to just sit in the sun, catch up, and actually be in the same town together. If only for a short time it was heavenly to meet up again.

Mike went and grabbed some lunch with his mom and dad while we were at the park and when he came back we decided to feed the ducks a bit before heading out for the rest of our busy day.

Brennan was for sure the most daring when it came to feeding the ducks, and Mason even tried(even though feeding animals makes him gag). I love the tiny moments like this in a super packed vacation that just allowed us to enjoy a few minutes of quiet with the kids.
We were also able to go and spend an evening playing games and eating dinner with our good friends the Daw's. I forgot my camera and didn't get one picture. This made myself and Carter pretty sad because he still loved spending time with his friend and was pretty upset we didn't get any pictures of it. Sorry buddy! Thanks Becky and Tyson-and brood for a wonderful time! It was like no time had passed at all!!

Jumpin Around!

We spent an evening at a trampoline park. It was so much FUN!! I tried to get a few shots that would help us remember this great time--but lets be honest, I really wanted to act like a child as well and enjoy the moments.

Sorry Chelsi--had to put it on here. :) 

1..2..3..4...I declare a BUM war. :)

Mason didn't know what to do with himself--he was so excited

Carter's flipping around never ended.

Even Mom had a go at flipping into the foam pit.

Auklin, Brinlee, Chloe and Taylor--They all were having such a great time and burning loads of energy!

Do you have to wonder why mason loved it!? One day we won't be able to help him enjoy himself so much, but I'm glad we could help him out this time.

I think Carter was starting to wear down towards the end.

Uncle Blake

Mike--Belly flop?

Kanyin

Auklin & Jace--poor guy with his broken arm. :(

Aunt Jeni was showing us all up!

Back flip!!

Such a fun hour--that is all you pay for and it was worth it-- and what a work out!

Friends..

Cameron keeps on growing and was trying with all his might to start the crawling while we were in Utah, I love that I have 3 older children who go and take pictures of Cameron by the dozens so we make sure we have plenty...they also take pictures of one another. :)

We caught up with many friends while in Utah..some I have pictures, most I do not.

Carter with his friend from North Dakota--JJ. Carter was so excited to know that a couple of his friends, JJ & Zac Daw were in Utah.

James with the new babies since we were all last together. James was also Mike's partner in crime for a 'few' golf outings.

Didn't notice that someone had drawn with a little pen by Cam's eye until after the picture was taken..but that is what you get when you are number 5 I guess.
