Andrew's 10th Birthday... in Vegas

Andrew had his buddy, Trevor come swimming for his Birthday and we got to go too. Happy 10th Andrew...We had fun with Andrew and ate yummy food and then we got to stay at the Rio for the Thursday night and on Friday we picked up the kids and brought them home with us for 6 days. It was so much fun. Trevoe and Andrew, best friends...
Andrew and G-pa with Andrew's present from g-parents...
April in her kitchen getting upset over something Frank and her Dad were saying to her.

Frank put sparklers on the cake and we told him it was not a good idea, sorry Frank! The candles were just fine and did not burn the cake up...thanks for letting us come to the party and for the night at the RIO too...

G-Kids visit with to do list!

The kids came with a list of places and things they wanted to do... well we did most of them and added a few more. From movies to hiking to Zion and home made ice cream . We had so much fun. Thanks for coming to the old folks home... we love you guys...Aubreana beat G-pa and her siblings back on the hike to the rock quarry where they got the rock to build the St. George Temple...hot hike, no shade, go in cooler weather...
There is a way cool water fall, but you have to be quick to get pictures before the guard comes and kicks you out, I am good at it now...
Up on the sand dunes, I like this view... Alaina and Andrew in the clouds...
Does this look just way too pretty... I love the shifting dune sand... red sand is so fine...
I love the sun flowers and there was a whole big field, like 5 acres of sun flowers on the back way to the dunes....of course we had to stop and take pictures...

Zion Park with Aubreana, Austin, Andrew,Alaina and Jayden

This is Austin and Aubreana at the end of the day... very tired teenagers!
Jayden and Alaina loved the water.... they had more fun than anyone there...cousin fun...
The two girls got braver and braver... first the small rocks then bigger and finally they slid down the rocks.... in that rushing water...
The kids loved hiking and getting their picture taken...the best one is on Dave's video camera... a squirrel jumped up on Aubreana's knee as she was kneeling down... it was so funny, I will try to down load it later.
Andrew is always the one to worry for all of us... here he is with his hand sanitizer for us all to use before we had our picnic lunch... we love you for loving us and keeping us safe...
It was sure a fun day at Zion Park...

Why am I the only wet adult?

The Cubs put on the Primary water party and it was sooo much fun! We did kick ball with water bases, dodge ball with water balloons, water balloon launchers and big squirt guns. Of course all the other ladies were dry at the end, but not me. I had a lot of fun with the kids! Thanks!!!

The Redmans came to visit!


It was so nice on last Friday Bishop Redman and Sandy came and spent the night. It was fun to hear about everyone in the O-3rd ward back home and we even had Rod Smith come to dinner also. We picked some peaches and I made Peach cobbler and we just had a good time visiting. Thanks for coming to The Wild Wilburn's Inn.
