Jack's Baptism and Family Fun....

Jack got baptized on Saturday July 2nd! We are so proud of him! Thanks to everyone who came and all the family who participated.

My sisters Mandy and Brenda and my Brother Nathan came with their families and my parents and spent a few days after the baptism with us. Here is a picture of the entire crew:

On Saturday after the baptism Jack asked if he could get in the pool:

After we got him out of the box, we filled up the pool in our backyard and everyone had a good time. The two younger boys Jaron and Cooper weren't quite sure they were ready to go out with everyone.

Sunday after church we went to see the locks in Ballard and had a picnic at the park there. It was a beautiful day and they had a band playing while we ate. So much fun!!

After we went to the Seattle Temple to see the beautiful grounds. Here is a picture of all the grandkids (except Mary) that were here. I also included a picture of Grandma taking a picture for those siblings that weren't here to watch :)

Monday the 4th of July we spent the majority of the day at Alki beach in West Seattle. I managed to only get one picture but you will have to take my word for it that we had a great time.

We had a barbecue and shot fire works from our backyard. The majority of the crew had to leave at 5 am on the 5th, so we had to finish the fireworks early. Kenzie and Grandma don't like the sounds and several other kids joined them to watch Tangled instead. Kenz actually fell asleep with her hands covering her ears.

This is a typical "end of the day" shot with Kathy (Nate's wife) reading to the kids.

Family is so awesome!
