Lagoon!!

We went to Lagoon again this summer and it was a blast! HOT- but a blast :) We went with the Nielsen/Bennett family and this year my family came as well! JC wasn't able to make it, but his wife and girls came and Kendall came with his girls and his girlfriend (I don't know what else to call her... they have been dating for a little bit now) and her girls. My parents also came to help us out and to watch all the grandkids on the rides. We had 9 kids under the age of 7. 8 of the 9 were 4 and under..... yes we are crazy! They had so much fun though. Rhett and Morgan (JC and Elisa's baby) were really good considering we were gone all day and it was so hot. Rhett had a few times when he was screaming because he was so hot and tired, but overall he was really good most of the day. Morgan was a little angel all day, she didn't make a peep! She is such a good baby :)

The kids rode most of the kids rides and we also rode the train and Ryan and I went on a couple rides as well. It was a fun day! Hazen of course loved the airplanes with the guns, the merry-go-round and the train. He went on the airplane ride probably 8 or 9 times throughout the day. He just kept getting off the ride and running to get back on! I was SO glad my family came this year... all the kids had so much fun together. It was fun for Hazen to have his cousins all there with him to ride the rides together. Last year, it was just Hazen and he had to do it all by himself. Here are a few pictures from the day.....

Lagoon is always so fun and we are already looking forward to it next summer!

Rhett's Blessing Day

We blessed Rhett on August 1, and it was such a nice day for our family. Ryan gave Rhett an AMAZING blessing and Rhett was such a good boy during his blessing. I was a little nervous because he was SUPER tired and he was crying right before Ryan took him up to bless him. But he stopped just in time for his blessing and he starting crying as soon as Ryan handed him back to me! We headed to the park after sacrament for some lunch with our families. It was a nice day and we are so grateful for our families and all the support they give us. This is the best family picture we could get.... Hazen was more interested in playing :)
