July 2010

For the 4th of July weekend all of Johns siblings and parents got together in Park City! It was lot of fun. We went swimming a lot, but I always forgot my camera! I also forgot it when we went camping for the first time! The next day the guys and Tiffany went fishing! We also got professional pictures taken with everyone! We had not been all together since the Christmas before Lizzy was born! We were glad everyone could make it out!

Getting ready for pictures!
This bear was in the lobby area, it was huge! Lizzy wanted a picture with it... so here it is!
On the 3rd, The Canyons do a big fireworks show, and we saw them setting up we went down the small gondola (not sure it's that's what it's called) to the 7-11.
The kids loved their treat! While we waited for the guys to get back from fishing!
Hanging out in the room, getting ready for our big breakfast!
On the 4th we headed to John's grandparents and had a dinner and fireworks. It was great!

I was home for 4 days, and then went to California! That was not expected at all! I called someone from work, and they were in UT, and going back alone the next day! I had planned to go out the following weekend with John for his business meeting, but it worked out well. Lizzy and I went with Tammy, and were able to spend time with Mom, Dad, Scott & Eva for about 5 days! Emma and her family were there for about three of those days as well! Scott & Lizzy had so much fun playing outside!

On Wednesday I went with Becky and her family to see Wicked in S.F – it was amazing!

Thursday morning John, Eric and Tagen arrived around 2am! After some rest, and visiting with friends we went to the Academy of Sciences in S.F. with Tagen & Eric

That night we went to a BBQ. Friday night we also went to a "Specific" dinner... that is where the pictures were taken below:
Lizzy loved the Train & Doll House!

Saturday while John was at a meeting Lizzy and I went to the Oakland Temple Visitors Center. She loved it there!

We were tired of all the driving, so we didn’t stay for the team dinner and activity that night; instead we drove back to Stockton, and went to Sushi with the our friends Becky & Jason! It's always nice to see them! It was also nice to get to bed a little earlier!

Lizzy and Becky & Jason kids.

Once in Utah it was back to the swimming. Lizzy went to her cousin's b-day party, and she really enjoyed swimming
After, we went to Seven Peaks. She loves going to the water slides and did very well!
This was at Cowabungra Bay awhile back. Lizzy loves the water slides, and she would stay in a pool all day if I let her!

John I and were able to go to El Salvador this past June for a Chiropractic Trip - we had an amazing time! The flight in, the view was incredible!
Relaxing at the beach, after our red eye flight, we wanted to sleep!
Hammocks were perfect!
We got to eat a lot of great food, all day!
We worked typically 8-5, Monday through Friday. We were put in 8 groups of 3, and at our site we had two groups. The group had about 9000 visits during the week! It was amazing to see so many people!


The whole group!

One of the ladies that gave a testimony at the end of the trip... she was thinking of going to the hospital because she was in so much pain... but she saw a flyer in the store about our visit... so she came, and felt so much better, she didn't need to go to the hospital!
She brought us the flowers.
View from our room at the Hilton - we just stayed there the last night, our 6th anniversary!
