What a Week

We started off the week with a Pioneer Parade and pot luck dinner for the neighborhood on July 24th. Jack was our only child there for it because Aiden and Eliza were still visiting Grandma and Grandpa Jaussi.

This is Jack holding his new cousin Troy at the picnic. Jack can say baby and was very sweet to Troy.

Aiden got a surprise when he got home from Idaho-a new room! He has always slept upstairs, but while he was gone Russell and I moved him downstairs! Russ made him this sweet new bed and at first he was like "this is awesome!" Then he said, (for the first two nights) "now this is just for the summer, right?" Wrong. I think he likes it now, he hasn't said anything else about it. The picture is a bit blurry, but you get the idea.

Next it was on to the Thanksgiving Point children's garden to cool off in the fountain. Only not so fast, the fountain was broken. But I think that kids still had a great time, except it was hot. Here is Eliza in front of some pretty flowers.

Grandma Liston bought a pass that allows her to bring her grandkids to Thanksgiving Point for free and additional adults are half price, so I think we will be spending some time there with the cousins. Here are Jack, Eliza, Paige and Grandma.

The kids were all sitting on these duck statues and Jack sat on this little baby one and it was so funny, you can just see the little legs of the duck underneath Jack.

Here are Paige and Eliza on the ducks.

Ky and Aid. I had to hurry and snap a picture of these two while I could, because they were all over the place. They are such cute boys!

Tricia and her kids came down on Friday and we went to the Walter Wicke exhibit at the Museum of Modern Art at BYU. He writes the I Spy books. This picture is bad, but I don't think I was suppose to take pictures so I just did a quick shot of Jack, Eliza, Jace and Abbie. We had a great time.

Then we decided to walk around campus and here is Eliza in front of another batch of pretty flowers. She is so cute and I love how she is into posing for the camera these days.

Let's see did I leave anything out...oh ya we went to my Aunt Cindy's for an irrigation party and that was very fun. I just didn't bring my camera so no pictures. Another week of summer fun down, just three or so more weeks until school starts up again!
