 After 2 sessions of swimming lessons Hazel still wouldn't let the instructors touch her, but she did everything else!

 Dillan passed swimming level P3 even though he can't float on his back, because he's too skinny :)

 He got his Birthday Roller Skates!  See video below to see how quickly he picked up the skill!

 Picnic!

 Sharing!

 We all went to Skate World while the Johnson cousins were here.  She's adorable!

 This is what I saw when I walked in at the end of Rest Time.  Where's Hazel?!

 There she is!

 Kids playing with Lincoln

 He can finally eat some "solid" foods and feed himself!

 We made it to Grandma and Grandpa Tanner's

 Play-doh party in St. George, because you can't be outside ALL day in the pool.

 Hazel fell asleep on Grandpa while we were all watching a movie.  Then she peed on him!  Can you see it?!  We were not very empathetic, it was too funny :)

 Splash pad in St. George

 Lincoln and Isaac are very close in age

 Early morning tennis: Kellie, Grandpa and the grandkids

 Sara has got the LOOK!

 Hazel has her own look :)

"Cup Soccer"

 Grandma Kirkham, recovering from cancer treatments.  She wore a wig the first time she came over so as to not scare the kids.  By the end of the week they asked her to take off her wrap to see what her head looked like.  They still talk about how Grandma has a wig, they think its fascinating.

 St. George Carousel

 A family tradition, Concretes and Neilsen's.

 4 wheeling at Kirkham family reunion in Juntion City.

I LOVED this family reunion.  We relaxed, hung out, played in the big yard, enjoyed each other's company, campfires, and a few games.  So chill and fun.  And what better company than family?

Clarification: Lincoln did not go with us off-roading.

 I think Dillan went 4 wheeling more than anyone else, at least 6 times.  He may win "Had the Most Fun" contest.

 My cousin Kurt giving him a ride.

 Our bedroom in Junction City.  We were in the Courthouse, the only nice building in the town.  There was also a gas station and general store, and that was pretty much everything.

 Hazel's Birthday present!

 The kids picked Silly Putty as one of their prizes for the Summer Reading Program.  I hate silly putty!  It gets easily stuck in hair, carpet, and grass.  This is a hilarious use of it though!  They had eyebrows made out of it as well.

What is Hazel doing?  Guess! (I'll tell you at the bottom of the post)

That's with 1 week of practice!

He may not smile a lot, but he's expressive with his whole body.  His waving arms and wiggling legs show his joy and excitement.

This is one of those "Joy in Your Posterity" moments

That's right, her birthday cake was drumsticks.  We also played in the splash pad and played kickball.  Her cousins drew her pictures as cards.  Conner was particularly excited about his: "Remember, the Sucker Plants are very important!"  (which were lollipops that he drew)

Cup soccer!

Clarification: "not put together yet" means there is a slide and teeter totter to be added.

Answer: She is singing into the bucket!

Hazel and Gwampa's Tummy

Hazel: I'm gonna keep eating and eating and eating because I want my tummy to be like Gwampa's.  Gwampa Tanner's.  ...That's fun!  we're gonna match!...My tummy's gonna get confused, because it's gonna get bigger.
