July 2023

The boys helped with FHE, they are directing the song.

They burned some fireworks.

Hot air balloons everywhere and this one came down in their cul de sac.

 They had people help them take it down while we went to the 4th of July parade on University.

Go West was in the parade and behind them was The Chosen cast.

Brenna painted the kids' faces.

They were excited.

 

We took fliers to people watching the parade and told them about the movie coming out in 2 weeks.

Jamie came for 4 days because she needed family around her.

We drove to OR and stopped in Boise to see uncle Bill and Heather, he's 101, soon 102.

I got to see some of my Liberty ladies and ate lunch with Karon and DeVon.

We had ice cream with Hovorkas and Hollenzers.

We talked over an hour with Jolyn Bateman, here's Barbara Silvester.

Each morning we walked from the Cayton's house to our old house, it was fun to be in the old neighborhood. We saw our neighbor, Sandy Scott, our last morning there too.

We went up to WA and saw June baptized July 11.

All the Thornock cousins.

Baylee is a beast of a swimmer, she won all her races.

We went kayaking, it was nice to get some exercise.

Back to Provo and had the premier of Go West at Thanksgiving Point. 2 theaters sold out and Ruth was there with her friend.

We stopped at Dave and Annie's house on our way home. Dave and Jack were working.

Scott and Meagan's house in St Louis had a tree land on it during a tornado and it's condemned.

We walked with the boys to the park and they biked.

They had fun but Theodore was stung 3 times by a wasp.

A neighbor invited them to the bounce house on July 24th.

Ward 24 of July cobbler, pie, ice cream social at Iron Springs Elementary school.

Jamie and Ashleigh flew to TN to see mom and Alicia, they had fun but wanted to stay longer.
