I finally got some of the summer fun that I was looking for when lots of family was in town last week! It was a whirlwind and I loved it. Here are some highlights (please forgive the wacky spacing - I've spent hours trying to fix the codes, etc. and it keeps resorting back to chaos):
Tuesday, August 16
Dinner at PF Chang's with Aunt Nancy and Uncle Mark

Justin Giles and SoulEscape dance concert (my gosh, my cousin is talented!)

Dinner in Santaquin with my sister's family, mom, grandma, and Aunt
Friday, August 18th
Dinner in the park and DanceFest at the Scera Shell with my brother's family of 6 from San Diego, sister and her girls, sister-in-law and her boys, mom & grandma from PA, and Aunt and Uncle from SC. Four numbers with SoulEscape, but the special treat was seeing Justin (and Lindy, his wife) dance because his male dancers had to go home. So perfect! Why don't you perform more?! Martin & Erin with Winston, Lincoln, Belle, and Marie spend the next 3 nights and 4 days at our house
Saturday, August 19th
BBQ up Santaquin canyon with Mandy, Devin, Madeleine, Annie, Brigham, Martin, Erin, Winston, Lincoln, Belle, Marie, Yahnghui, David, Joseph, Mom, Grandma, Emily, and Hylan that got rained out after we all arrived. Moved to a park with a pavilion in Santaquin and then almost got blown away by the wind. The kids played on the playground for hours!
Made Hershey's Perfectly Chocolate Chocolate Cake for Lincoln, Devin, and Grandma's Birthdays
Church with Martin's family, Aunt Nancy & Uncle Mark
Hylan entertains our neighbor and niece
Thanksgiving dinner with everyone mentioned above in Santaquin.
Monday, August 21st
I took the day off and spent it with Martin's family
Dinner with Mandy's family, Martin's family, Mom, Grandma, and Hylan at the Pizza Factory
A gift for those hosts. Thanks for the Costco cash, Chinese pastries, and flowers! Come back any time.
Wednesday, August 23rd
Lunch with Mandy, Mom, Annie, and Brigham at Zupas
By Thursday, everyone was gone. What a fun impromptu trip! Not a single person who travelled here had decided to come more than 2 weeks before they came!
The End.
