Laughing

On our way home from Green River, we bought Zach one of the new Bumbo chairs. This is a couple of pictures of him sitting in it for the first time, while laughing at Kylie. For some reason Kylie is the one that he will laugh at the most. Today, (Sunday) she had him laughing quite a bit, and he has just the cutest little laugh.

Meeting Alex

We stopped and took Alex out to dinner for his birthday on the way home from Green River.  It had almost been two years since we had last seen him.  Kylie was excited to see him, but then really shy once she got around him.  This was Zachary's first time of meeting Alex.

More Melon Days

We were finally able to get a picture of all 6 grandkids together.  I was pretty lucky I almost had all of them looking at me for the first picture that I took.  From L to R:  Zachary, Kylie, Kinsey, Nathan, Allie, and Rylee.

Uncle Greg gave Zachary a pirates baseball hat.

Zachary and Allie

Zachary and Grandpa Brian were buddies during Melon Days.  

This year was my 15 year class reunion. (I couldn't believe it had been that many years.)  8 of the 15 of us made it.  We had a little barbeque get together and just sat around and visited.  It was great to be able to catch up with those who were there.

Greg, Heather, and Allie

Here is Greg's cute family with Allie also at her first Melon Days.

Yummy!

Melon Days Parade

We all got together in our normal spot to watch the parade.  It seemed like it was a really long parade this year as there were a lot of entries.  The kids collected tons of candy and we all had a good time.  I feel bad that I did not get pictures of everyone that was there. I missed getting pictures of Allie, Greg, and Heather -  Kinsey and Kalen (Mandy was busy setting up the scrap book stuff, and I also missed getting a picture of my dad, as he joined us to watch this year. 

This was Zachary's first melon days and this is how he started the parade out.  Wanting a bottle.  That's ok.  By the time the parade got to us he was all done and so happy with a huge smile on his face the whole time.  He just loved seeing all of the people and everything that was going on.  Let's just say that his nape were really short while we were at the park.

Kylie and Zachary!

Candy time!

Zach taking it all in!  His melon shirt looked so cute on him.  I am glad that it fit because we thought that it was going to be too big.

Mom in the parade getting ready to throw some candy.

This was just too cute.  The wonder bread truck was throwing out bags of bread and one of the split open.  Nathan ran out there to pick it up like it was just the greatest thing.

Swimming

We went swimming with everyone while we were in Vernal at the Rec. center that they have.  The pool was really nice and there were a lot of things for kids to do.  The only thing that wasn't great about it was that it was a little bit cool, so it wasn't great for Zach's first experience with swimming.

Zach and Kelly.  This was one of the few moments where Zach wasn't crying.  You can see mom, dad, Ryan, and Nathan in the background.

Ryan was gracious enough to take care of Zach for me while I went to get a few pictures of Kylie in the pool with her dad.

All of the little kiddo's posing for one last picture before Ryan and Tristen's family had to take off for home. 

We had a great time with everyone and can't wait to see the whole family during Melon Days in a couple of weeks.

Dinosaur Museum in Vernal

THIS PAST WEEKEND WE WENT TO ROOSEVELT(spelling?) AND VISITED WITH KALEN, MANDY AND KINSEY.   MY MOM AND DAD AND RYAN'S FAMILY ALSO JOINED IN ON THE FUN.
