Here are some highlights from the 4th week of June.
Cute Carter w/ a stuffed animal dragon named "Winger" he got from Aunt Diane for his birthday. Thanks Diane, he loves it!
I love all our Day Lillies blooming! A white Dianthus is also in bloom.
Carter thought it would be funny to put a mask on Hudson.
We have some raspberries ripening on our bushes. Hudson just kicking up his legs before his nap.
Tuesday, my parents drove down for Joe Orgill's funeral (my mom's sister Rosanne's husband). The next day they came over for breakfast and the boys got to give my dad is Father's Day Tie they made. I had work that morning, then in the afternoon we went to the Jordan River Temple to go through an endowment session w/ Ava. Afterwards we came back to our house for dinner.
Dad holding Hudson and Lincoln (they weigh the same). Mom holding Hudson.

Steve and I at Jordan River Temple (the temple we got married in, 12.5 years ago).
Ava, Steve, Me, Dad/Grant, Mom/Cathleen, Rose, Chris and Pauline at the temple for Ava's endowment. It was great to be back in the temple and do a session again after 15 months of closure due to Covid.
It was Mom and Dad's 46th wedding anniversary the next day (June 24th) so we sang them Happy Anniversary and got them flowers and chocolate almonds to celebrate.
We actually got some rain! Our trees, flowers and grass loved it!
It was nice to have it cool off for a little as well from the rain.
Cute baby Hudson still loves to say mamma. It melts my heart :)
Nyles holding baby Hudson and Carter getting loves from Piper.
Carter got a medal during their Olympics week at Summer Camp. He thought it was really special and wanted me to take a picture of it. Hudson likes to hold everything w/ his feet also. Why not?
More pretty Day Lilies and Daisies, yeah!
Friday after work we went over to a splash pad for a little while.
Saturday we went up to Echo Reservoir again. We met Stacie there and Carrie came a little after. We even all brought our dogs to play at the water. We weren't sure how Piper would do in the water, but surprisingly she enjoyed it. She kept getting back on the kayaks to go for another ride.
We took turns going out on the kayaks. I also played fetch w/ Piper.
Carter tried to help Steve row the kayak.
More fun on the kayaks. Phill w/ their dog Mesa, and Me w/ Piper.
Hudson playing on the kayak and Piper enjoying the view. Conor, Carter and Nyles playing in the sand.
Piper on the kayak w/ me and Stacie next to me. It acted like it was going to rain for a while up at Echo, but it didn't thankfully. The temperature was actually really great! After we got back home, Nyles hosed off all the kayaks to get all the mud off.
Pretty views as we came down Parley's Canyon.
Family picture after church on Sunday (do you like how Nyles is holding Hudson's head forward?)

We went up Little Cottonwood Canyon Sunday afternoon for a stroll in the mountains. It was 20 degrees cooler and felt great up there! We went on a walk on the Observation Trail. It was really beautiful up there and the weather was fantastic!
My cute boys and pretty flowers. This time Carter is holding Hudson's head forward :)
More pictures on our walk. So pretty!
Family picture, Steve helping Hudson w/ the water gun, and loving the view at the end of the walk.
On our walk back, we found a tepee just to the side of the walkway. The boys thought it was pretty cool. Hudson liked holding the water gun and getting a ride in the wagon.
They have a lot of other activities you can pay to do, but since it was Sunday we didn't. The boys wanted to pretend to find rocks/gems in the water though. You can tell Hudson was getting tired by the look in his eyes and he doesn't care which way the binky was in his mouth. We left after that and headed home to get him to bed.
Great quotes about the temple.
