Wrapping up July

July was filled with lots of biking, soccer, and home projects.  After our 2-week road trip in June, and spending a week at the cabin in July, we were ready to tackle some of the projects that have been on our list.

I love getting out on bike rides with Emma.  She is very patient with me.

To say that it was a dusty summer is a bit of an understatement.

Project #1: the upper deck

soccer practices for Abigail

July 11th:  We went to the AJR concert!

July 23rd-28th: My mom was in town and we stayed busy!

hiking in Round Valley

Pixar Putt--Each hole was themed after a Pixar movie. So fun!

Utah Olympic Park is always fun.  We explored the museum and then the girls did obstacle courses and the zip line.

Brighton

Project #2: new flooring on the main level--finally! This also included removing a shower that we only used for storage.

More pics to come of our house projects....

 

Family Memories in Brighton!

 We spent 8 nights at the cabin over the 4th of July.  It was fun, refreshing, relaxing, and just what we needed.  Andy's sister and her family were also in town so that made for some great family time.  We hiked, laughed, sat on the porch, frequented the flea market, played games, and made many memories.
