Fun Summer Haircuts

When we left for vacation my boys were all over due for haircuts.  Three weeks later they came home with some wildly long hair.  Melissa decided that they weren't getting just any haircut.  So with two weeks left of summer the boys got the haircut of their dreams.  And although their daddy was less then enthusiastic when he first saw them that night, it kind of grows on you.   

The next day I took the boys with me to five different stores.  Everywhere we went we ran into people who commented on their hair.  Parker asked me why everyone liked their hair so much.  I think they got notice mostly because there were three mohawks hanging out together.  They will get it all cut off before school starts, but it's pretty cute for now. 

Family Reunion 2011

My sister Rebecca was in charge of our family reunion this summer.  We spent the first day at Lagoon in Utah.  I have so many fond memories of Lagoon growing up.  It was our vacation destination as a family many times.  This was the first time my kids had ever been there and we had such a great time!  This was about the only ride Spencer rode on the entire day at Lagoon.  He was definitely not a huge fan of the rides, but was a good sport the whole day.  He liked the water park best.

The next day we headed to Temple Square where we toured the Church History Museum.  They had a great display on Latin America.  Rebecca was excited to show the kids one of the traditional dances.  Alexia, Kurstyn Aunt Becca, Emily, and Parker in their traditional outfits.

This picture cracks me up. Becca, Elijah, Alexia and Parker are acting out the Good Samaritan scene behind them.
