What A Week!

Well the week started off with Travis' oldest brother, Dan, and family staying with us for two nights. So we had 4 adults and 7 kids all in our apartment. It was noisier than usual, but it was a lot of fun! I'm glad that we could just say to the kids, "Go play in the basement."

Here's Elora holding her cousin Jaci

I read "We're Going on a Bear Hunt" to the kids

Elora actually cuddled up with her uncle Dan

On Thursday before the 4th we drove up to Bedford, Wyoming to go camping for a Gough family reunion. This is a view on the way up. It was beautiful!

Here is a view of the sunset from our campsite:

I just LOVE this picture!! It shows the three of them just having a good time!

Travis couldn't let me miss the fun action
On the morning of the fourth, we went to a little parade that came back again, so we saw it twice. Max quite enjoyed himself:
Our group had a ton of kids there!
Elora didn't want to get off her chair very often, so she didn't get as much candy, but she didn't know the difference, she was having a great time!
We stayed in Wyoming until Sunday, got home and vegged, and then went to the Zoo the next day in Salt Lake for my niece, Emma's birthday!

We liked the giraffes, and we saw a baby one that was born in November

Max enjoyed himself most of the time in the stroller
