Visit from Gma and Aunties

Grandma McKinney, Amy and Leslie came for a visit at the end of June.  We crammed as much into the visit as we could. The first evening we went to dinner at my aunt and uncle's house.  The next day the adults went to the temple, and my sisters watched the boys.  They had lots of fun playing in the yard on the slip and slide and playing on grandma's ipad.
Thursday I was getting ready for our cub scout crossover ceremony and was very grateful for my families help in getting some painting done for the award plaques that I was making and Peter of course wanted to paint when he saw what we were doing.  So we sent him outside with Leslie to paint and this was the end result!


 I am not sure if there was more paint on Peter or on the paper.  I guess he likes green...

Later that evening while I went and sweated away at our ceremony my mom and the girls took the boys swimming with my cousins at a local water park.  They had so much fun and I know they kept my mom on her toes, thankfully, no one drowned!  Then everyone came back to our house for ice cream which was a perfect cap to the day.  Poor Isaac kept giving himself a brain freeze I think trying to eat his popcicle but it was so good he didn't want to put it down.  He would take a few bites and then just start crying and saying cold...I know we shouldn't have but we all got a good laugh out of it. They sure did sleep well that night! 

Our only complaint was that the trip was not long enough!  Sorry Amy that we didn't get time to make bruschetta for you!
