We were so happy to have a lot of family time in SLC both before and after Newport.
The O'Neil girls were in town for the month of August and Teag had training camp, so Dallas and I spent the month in Salt Lake too.
It was so fun to have good, quality time with my family and for Dallas to have time with his cousins!
We went to the 'COWABUNGA' water park, the SL county fair, Jungle Jim's, Millcreek Canyon, had Kira's b-day party, Education Week with my mom and sisters, fun in Grandma and Grandpa Reynolds backyard, and lots of laughing, chatting, drives for DC's and hanging out!
Thanks for the fun times everyone!

Lizie checking out the water park, debating if she wants to join the big kids

Churro!

cute kiddos

these two silly's were trying to dunk their heads in the water at the end of the water slides

Dallas LOVES helping grandpa water his flowers

Visiting with Watson and great-grandma Reynolds...
and giving kisses to grandma

...and Watson, or "Watwun" as Dallie says

Eliza having a moment after emptying the drawer of toothbrushes and toothpaste.
Maybe she and Dallas can have a dental practice together...they both LOVE brushing their teeth
and playing with toothbrushes!

Lizie checking on Missy under the car...I think her exact words were,
"Hey Missy, what's the big idea under there?"

Of course I HAD to get my picture with a goat at the county fair!

Alexa with a camel (huh?!) and Dallas with a goat at the petting zoo

Mister riding a pony, don't mind the binky...

Lex and Kira

There was an Australian exhibit and the kids got to hold a baby kangaroo and get their picture

We celebrated Kira's birthday and Lisa made her first barbie cake!
I have a feeling there are a few more of these in her future :)

The birthday girl!

all the 'little' cousins playing in the sandbox
(yes, that's Dal in just a diaper)

these two are such a crack-up together!

I might get in trouble someday for taking a picture of this, but I had to get a shot of Dallas in
time-out after an episode of getting a little too rough with Eliza

Teag letting the O'Neil girls drench him

and the Francis boys had to get in on it too

Dallas, Alexa and Kira

so much fun!
