School may be in session, but Summer is still here!

Those busy, but fun summer days are not behind us yet. Saturday morning we enjoyed a little bit of Ammon days while Austin had his soccer practise in the adjacent field. We had breakfast and played a few games. Justin did push ups for a free volleyball and the kids got some candy. Ashley, mom and Evan did the rock climbing wall.

Then we hurried over to Iona to make the second half of Evan's soccor practise. From there we left on a 4 hour drive to Lehi, Utah. Or should I say the outskirts. It was Grandma's 84th birthday party.

After dinner the kids got to go on a treasure hunt in their "backyard" to look for a "big bug".

After they found the bug they got to smash him open and dive for candy.

Then it was time for Grandma's cake and gift.

Dad thinks Chase should start working on potty training.

Living in the mountains has it's ups and downs. You definately get privacy, but you are miles away from a store when you run out of something. Some of the fun wildlife we saw were hummingbirds, lizards, rabbits and wild turkeys! But Uncle Steve says he also sees snakes, tarantulas, coyotes, bobcats and even a mountain lion!
