More July Happenings

I have been slowly making my way through the loads of pictures I took this summer.  It is taking me much longer than expected because I have to stop every few pictures to relive all the wonderful times we had.  Here's a few of those fun happenings from July.

One benefit of my sister Emily being in town is that she has a really nice camera and she takes tons of amazing pictures and then sends me the ones of my kids.  All the great July pictures of the boys came from her.

In July we had friends over for a slip-n-slide BBQ.  A good time was had by all.




We spent fun Sundays at Mark's parent's house.  One time the order of fun for the evening was having staring contests.  Timmy is surprisingly good at it.


Then the staring contest somehow turned into arm wrestling.

Brian made some great Lego creations.

We had a blast at the neighborhood parade and party.  Mark always does a great job of running the show.








This whole summer brought lots of beautiful rainbows.

We went to a Bees baseball game with friends and the favorite part for the kids was the train ride.


They also had fun eating a blue snow cone.  I don't know how much baseball they actually watched, but it was a nice evening out with friends.


Mark's work had their work party at All Star Bowling where we had unlimited food, rides, games and fun!

The boys got to try real bowling for the first time ever.


In July we started a new morning routine.  After breakfast Timmy works on his UPSTART Preschool program (which we love by the way) while Brian practices his piano.

I sit in between the two and mostly help Brian and be there for support for Timmy when he needs it.  So far this is working before school as well.

We went to the zoo where we got a picture of all 16 Evans cousins.





July brought a trip up to a new lake with some friends that I had never been to.  It was Silver Lake Flat Reservoir up American Fork Canyon.  It ended up being a beautiful fun day.  




We visited my Grandma Joyce.  Brian and Timmy love her and her house.



Then to celebrate Pioneer Day, we went to the Church History Museum.

Brian and Timmy were super excited to try their hand at stone cutting.





July was packed to the brim with fun adventures.  I am so grateful for all the opportunities we had to learn and grow and have fun together!
