We were able to go visit Spencer and his family this year for the fourth of July. Erin and her girls came too, and it was good to just get away for a few days.

Getting out to stretch on the way up. Makenna ran all the way across this big bridge near the Vermillion Cliffs.

That night we were able to go visit our good friends Kailey and Chase. They are in our ward, but chase is doing a law school internship up there for the summer. We really miss them and it was fun to swim with them and see their baby Lucas.


Parade Princess
On the Fourth of July we all hiked Ensign Peak. This is where the "This is the place" monument is looking over the Salt Lake Valley.

All the Grands
She likes to get out all the stuff to change her diaper, not really when she needs it, just to play with.
That night Spencer set off fireworks in their cul de sac. It was awesome, we had a 360 view of aerial fireworks, because tons of people were setting them off right in their neighborhood.

Because Makenna struggled on the long drive up. We left at 3 in the morning to come home so she could sleep for a good portion of the drive. So worth it!
