A couple weeks ago we had our first family photos taken since Reagan has been born. I know I know, long time coming but I think they are worth the wait. It was fun taking them and we are excited to get a couple of them up in our house. I included here most of our favorites.

















The last weekend of July our family headed up to Goosebury Campsite located a few miles outside of Salina, Utah. We spent 3 nights here for my mom's Family Reunion. We have come to this site the last few years and it has been wonderful. The facility is a bunch of cabins with a kitchen and real bathrooms and a huge common grassy area here we spend much time reconnecting with family..
Reagan enjoying her snacks and juice on our first day. 
Ashton being silly with one of his favorite people, GRANDPA!
We decided to eat our lunch on bridge that is over a beautiful little creek. It didn't last long though because the rain started coming down.
We took shelter under the porch of one of the cabins.
It is beautiful here and Reagan wanted to touch the rain. 
Ashton was quite disappointed come bed time because when we said "camping" he was anticipating sleeping in a tent and not a cabin. He was over it by the next morning.
Our 2nd day was spent at a lake about half an hour away. It was wonderful weather and the day couldn't have been nicer.
Ashton had fun with his MANY cousins digging in the stinky sand.
Later that night Uncle Michael taught Reagan the art of s'more making.
3 big grins, you can tell we are having fun!

Here is a cute video of Reagan and Shae Lynn enjoying the evening festivities!
My handsome brother Bryce with his sassy daughter Shae Lynn. Aren't they cute!
Here is 4 generations of women with the 2nd generation missing (my mom). It was nice to 
see my Grandma Cazier who lives in Logan, UT. I don't get to see her very often but 
when I do it's a treat!
After a night of marshmallows a bath in the community kitchen was just 
what our messy girl needed.
So fresh faced and clean, isn't she a doll!
And before taking the 9 hour trip home my aunts and uncle posed for posterity sake! 
My mom is the cute one dead center.

Over the 4th of July I was able to help out at Girls Camp by being the Camp Director for our ward. It was great to be able to get to know the girls and build relationships with the leaders. Our stake did a wonderful job and it was fun to go to Camp LoMia again after 10 years.
We had more leaders than girls but I bet its hard to tell who's who!
Michaela, Hailey and Emily were in the cabin with me and Kelley and it was fun having such great girls around for both girl time and spiritual time.
Kelley Crandell (Love Her!) and I were the leaders in the cabin and here they are decorating our Hawaiian themed cabin.
I call Ashton a poser but I love how cute he is when he does it!
We got a dog named Hazel and before before she learned the "House Rules" she ended up in the tub with the kids. It was funny and fun for them but that is just gross and won't happen again!
