It was so fun to see all of my Aunts, Uncles, and Cousin's by the dozens! We had over 70 people there! 

On the first day there, I smothered Boston in kid-friendly mosquito repellent twice... 50+ mosquito bites later, I decided to smoother him in the adult stuff that contained lots of deet! (Does anyone know a kid mosquito repellent that actually works???)
Despite all the bites, Boston had the time of his life up camping, and waisted no time getting dirty while playing with his cousin Jordan!
The second day there, Jeremy went golfing, and then we all enjoyed spending sometime at Bear Lake!
Even Hadley dressed up for the event! She wore my old swimming suit that I wore as a baby! She looked so cute, and even shared with us some of her first smiles!

I loved the way Hadley's eyes just sparkle in this picture!

Boston loved throwing the wet sand all over himself, and anyone who would dare get near!

He also loved playing with his cousin Peyton in the sand! Boston wanted to follow Peyton everywhere up camping!
It was the busiest I have ever seen Bear Lake! The pictures in the top right is to show all the hundreds of cars on just the north end of the lake. 
The second night there, we had a TERRIBLE storm. Hail, Rain, Wind, and Lightening and Thunder. We all ran to our tents or trailers. Boston was so scared, and was crying so hard. Then Jeremy and I said a prayer that everyone would be safe and protected, and began singing primary songs. Immediately Boston calmed down, and Jeremy and I were able to calm our fears as well. My parents tent got severely flooded, but nobody was hurt. I am always amazed by the Power of prayer and the Power of music. Both work miracles.

On the third day we joined in Paris, Idaho's Independence Day activities which included a yummy breakfast, and a fun parade!! My favorite part about the parade is that it goes down one side of the street, turns around, and then comes back on the other side of the street!

Before the parade started we took some time to take some family pics in our flag shirts! Wow, we are a family of 4! That's crazy!
But what is even crazier is that my parents now have 7 grandkids!

This is Hadley and her cousin Audriana! My kids are so lucky to have cousin's so close to their age!
I think Boston's favorite activity the whole time was riding these cars down this small ramp. The kids did this for HOURS!
