July

- Hailey got baptized (we all wore masks), but at least we got to be there in person

- Andrew wanted us to cut a mohawk in his hair, and it actually didn't look terrible, but it didn't last very long and he asked us to shave his head

- We went to Splash Summit / 7 Peaks with the Hale family & Manilla pond

- My mom had never hiked the Y, so we did it together 

- I also hiked to horsetail falls with Kacie

- Mom and I saw Mary Poppins at Sandy's Hale Center Theatre, and we wore masks (it was the longest I had ever worn one and it was hard!)

- I hiked with the kids to the large flag in PG canyon

- Rachel made a cake for her cousin, Hailey's birthday

- Our port-a-potty is still in our front yard ... ha ha

- Boating drama - we keep having to get rescued and it is getting very old! 

- Drive in movie (covid friendly) and we parked right next to Katie Awerkamp, Carson's favorite babysitter

- Scooter date with the Worthens & Packers

- Still tie-dying shirts over here

- The little kids are taking over our bed! 

- I guess we are going to open a crumbl store with some other couples!  So we went to visit our local store and take a selfie.  Details to come.

Camping in Mount Pleasant for 24th

 We've been wanting to check out a camping spot in Mount Pleasant called Heritage Grove.  We found some availability on the 24th, so we went and brought Brandon's parents and the Murray family.  It was a really fun campground with awesome amenities, so I imagine we will be back!  On the way home, we stopped for ice cream in town and grandpa totally fell asleep while we were waiting for our ice cream.  

Camping with Thompson Family

We went camping with the Thompson family at Little Mill up AF Canyon.  We let Rachel bring Kennedy since she doesn't have any cousins her same age.  Everyone had a blast!  There are always a lot of rides on the segways and on Grandpa Thompson's golf cart.  We also went to Tibble Fork for an afternoon.  Uncle Scott caught a fish, and showed all the kids how to clean it.  My mom also built a kiddie pool with rocks at the edge of the river so that the kids could play.  She even laminated signs and attached them to sticks for the next group, so they knew there was a kiddie pool.  I do remember it feeling a little weird to be around so many people (covid), but we were outside and could keep a safe distance from each other.
