Freedom, Family, Floats and Family Pictures in July 2024

The 4th of July
I always love watching the jeeps ride on each other's tires... This ad in the honey bucket made me laugh. I don't want to take a selfie in a porta-potty or to get my own honey bucket... Had to take a photo of our friend's Nate and Katie's daughter... Robison family line up... Such a fun and fancy Smurf jeep... always love seeing the American Flag... and a fun Lego float. 

Big Boy
We had fun taking Marshal and Greyson to see Big Boy 
at the Train Museum in Ogden.

We had fun exploring and learning!

Holdaway Family Party
While we were at Big Boy, Braxton and Cort were invited to a summer party 
at Corbin and Stacy Holdaway's house! They had a blast! 

Float Preview
We love to see the floats at the Pioneer Day float preview!

Paper Airplane Fun!

One float showed all the temples being built as time moves forward. 
I love to see temples built!

Family Pictures
Kamryn Blackburn took family photos for us! 
They turned out cute!


















24th of July
We love the 24th of July in Kanosh... Marshal also loved supplying Travis 
with a little girl's fishing pole to use at Fish Lake next year.

YM Camp
Cort and Kent went to the Young Men's camp up at Bear Lake, 
and they were able to tour the Paris Tabernacle. Very cool!


Life in July
1 Marshal with his balls... We hung out on the porch to "help" our neighbor make a better choice than driving on the neighborhood streets without a driver's license... Braxton was able to get another Scholarship to help him with school; he's been truly blessed... More Marshal ball photos... Marshal was GLUED to the World Cup... Checking out my hair color options, it looks like brown, blonde, dark purple, or gray are my best options, ha ha... A patriotic duck we got from a parade... Marshal and Ryker are just hanging out in the back of their truck in camp chairs... checking out our shirt color scheme for family photos! 

This is one crazy election with an attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump... meanwhile, the summer Olympics have a "golden calf," present, I'm not impressed... AI seems to be biased also... Marshal cracks me up... the Olympics also had a "last supper" with cross-dressers, I'm really not impressed... The political rhetoric is getting really bad... It's hard to watch our high schoolers and young adults struggle to find jobs!... Braxton and Cort had some really great games of the game "Bank."

Marshal is making a splash at the Smiths' (Bryant and Christy's) pool! 

Yummy Salad Recipe I got from Lily at work.

Great suggestions and ideas to help with emotions!
