A lot of fun things!

     From fun family & friend gatherings, Alpine day activities, including an absolutely fantastic fireworks show, to a few other fun events, (like school starting), let the photo dump proceed.

Can't go a year without this photo duo.

A great visit from Uncle Mark and family.

What a fun way to spend a warm August night. And thanks to 'mother nature' for cleaning off all my chairs with a much needed rain shower before the party.

Alpine parades are special.

The bottom photo is of our ward primary's float. 

Leaving the parade with Papa in the lead. (Guns out, of course!)

Now time for a day at the park.

Yummy food, great friends, and maybe a little 'too loud' live entertainment.

A little variety of photos from the day.

One of the many performers throughout the day, the girls were big fans.

Just a glimpse of the finale that was out of this world!

    Then it was Sunday and Greg got to hang out with cute baby, Mack.

We also finished celebrating Charlie's 13th birthday. Jello cheesecake is her favorite.

We had Asher and his friends, Gage and Thomas stay over the weekend and the Wendel girls were big fans.

    And some how, another school year has begun!

8th and 10th grade. 

And we must share this little guys smiling skills. He's really getting the hang of it!

    Now on to the weekend, which I believe will be much quieter than last weekend.
