Wyoming on the way out
Emma: It was hot! (And Addie had a brain freeze.)
Enoch: I liked being in the handcart.
Calvin: I liked being in the covered handcart because my eyes were getting burned.
Taran: I remember that me and Addie pulled a small handcart. We had fun time at the hotel water park. Going backwards on the lazy river was hard!
Willa and Grant share a drink at In-n-Out
Emma: Sparklers, fireworks and family is the best!
Enoch: It was great. I did the fire writers where I was writing.
Calvin: That was good. I liked-ed it. I want to do again.
Taran: All the fireworks were awesome. Especially the one that wasn't a ground one, but we thought it was.
Trampoline Challenge
Emma: It looks like we almost broke the tramp!
Taran: It made me go high.
Mommy: Aunt Kirsti, Uncle Jared, Uncle PJ and I tried to rocket each other off the tramp. We competed to see who could jump the best. I was not good at it. Aunt Kirsti's a rock star jumper because she did while pregnant.
It was Uncle PJ's idea to make it a competition. That goes back to when we were children; he turns everything we do into something he can win.
