Miscellaneous Summer

That title pretty much says it all!

I don't know about the rest of you but this summer has been CR-AZY for us! I am so ready for fall, even the mayhem of the holidays will be a welcome change. My job has been the main culprit in robbing us of any free time or social life, something that will change November 2nd, and next in line is Ryan's school - most of which ends November 6th. Phew! I just want to do...NOTHING!

I posted a while back that everyone should go to the Ogden Valley Balloon festival but never updated with our own pictures. It is always fun up there, although this year it was a bit windy so the balloons were not at their peak. However, the music was OF COURSE, excellent!! Dylan had been sleeping on the way up so he has his "Don't Mess" face on in most of the pictures, especially about the bunny ears - they were so not cool to him!






Ryan's family had a reunion this summer as well. It was 2 days of family fun! The first night my brother came and cooked a delicious dutch oven dinner for everyone. This was followed by the story of Ryan's great-grandpa in theatrical form - of course! The kids performed the story put to music and narration written by Kaiser and Jill, it was incredible. We also had a luau and dinner at Ryan's aunts house one night.
