July fun

We celebrated Mitchell's birthday at our family 4th of July party on the 3rd.

Sparklers!  Note Bill sitting in the street with a headlamp and blowtorch.  Nice.

4th of July party on the 4th at our house with the other side of the family.  More fireworks!

The real fireworks on the mountain.  This was the Alpine fire.  It felt a little weird to be lighting fireworks while seeing this sight just up the hill.

Mitchell's real birthday!  The big 3!!!

We spent some time in Park City with Todd's family.  The kids had fun taking pictures with their under water cameras.

We celebrated Mitchell's birthday along with his cousin Andora.

We went camping in Hades.  It was a pretty campground with a pretty little river.  We'd tried to camp here last year but the campground had been flooded due to a super snowy winter.

We took our bikes and rode around.  The kids thought it was great to bike on the dirt.  The only problem was crossing cattle guards.  Emma's little tires would get stuck.

There was a cow pasture behind our campsite.  Mitchell decided to go for a run in it.  Here he is in time out in the trailer.

Too much fun on the bike!

Another trip to the zoo (we'd gone with friends earlier in the month too).  The polar bear was "kissing" the boys through the glass.

The tiger was having fun with this ball.

We finished the evening off with ice cream!

We went swimming with cousins in the rain.  Oh no, we are getting wet!

The kids all took swimming lessons.  Emma's here with her friend Shayla.  They were in Preschool 2.

Sarah in level 6.

Mitchell in preschool 1.

Mason in level 3.

Our basement theater room was almost finished.  The boys decided to find a way to watch a movie down there.  

Sarah also had a ballet camp in July.  

I think that's about it!
