A Walk Down Memory Lane

This past week was our 10 year wedding anniversary.  That also means that Russell and I had our first date 16 1/2 years ago.  It's amazing how much people can change in 16 1/2 years!
































We've lost some hair and gained some weight, but I wouldn't change a thing!

Fourth of July Party

We had a lot of fun celebrating the Fourth of July this weekend.  It started Saturday morning at the park.  One of Russell's brothers (Bryan) and his sister (Amy) were here with their families so the kids had lots of cousins to play with.

Meg - 3, Lex - 5, Kyler - 9, Brynn - 9, Kenyon - 4, Kaylee - 6, Evelyn - 2, Kate - 7, Thomas - 4, and Anna - 1.


We had a yummy picnic lunch...


... took lots of pictures...


... some were nice...

































... and others were silly!
















After a fun time at the park, we went to the swimming pool to cool off.  I didn't get any pictures while we were there because I was too busy playing with the kids.

After swimming, we went to Grandma and Grandpa Slim's for dinner.

Kaylee loved carrying Sophie (Grandma and Grandpa Olie's dog) around.




The day ended with fireworks and Birthday Cheesecake for Grandma Olsen.  Again I didn't get any pictures taken.

Sunday evening we went up to Grandma and Grandpa Henningson's house for fireworks and fun!  I did take picture this time, but they didn't turn out very well.

















Kyler, Kaylee and Kenyon got to have a sleepover at Grandma and Grandpa Henningson's house and loved it.

Thank you to all of our family members who made the weekend so much fun!!
