Danny's big week

 Danny checking himself out with his new glasses on.

 He likes them!

 Danny elephant walking.

 The cool big cement tubes at the park.

 First day with glasses. A little unsure.

 Two boys in a bed with the cougar Henry gifted to them. (He accidentally left it here, and Sarah said they could have it. Now Charlie sleeps with it every night.)

 New Spider Man sandals. And SUPER shorty shorts:)

 Trying to make him look like Miles: glasses, no shirt...oh, but Danny IS wearing something under his shorts;)

 Alice as the narrator for their Father's Day play.

 Alice as the kid and Grace as Paul.

 Lots of stripes.

 Happy kids!

 Restaurant celebration for Danny's new glasses.

 The Dalai Lama at the U.

 Mmmm, popsicles!

 Piano prodigy.

 Swinging at the park.

 Alice likes the swings too. She and Grace liked to swing because it kept them safe from the three little dogs at the park.

 Cool new park we discovered near our house.

 I keep trying to prove to Paul that he has some white hairs. This one we pulled out was really white.

 Family dinner prep party: the wonton team.

 The mushroom chicken team.

 Picking apricots.

First crop. Not bad!

Fun with Family!

 Joely and Danny: BFFs.

 Kelsey reading to Abel and Danny. Cute little buddies (all 3!).

 Paul trying to get Henry to sleep by reading him books.

 The girl cousin group: Hazel, Alice, Norah, and Grace.

 Henry and Charlie were sometimes friends, sometimes enemies.

 Norah and Grace in sock curlers.

 Sarah bought us 12 new tubs of playdoh for this fun party!

 It lasted about an hour, then took about an hour to clean up...

 Pretty Grace post sock curlers.

 My boys took to Justin right away - they LOVED him!

 What Alice drew during sacrament meeting last Sunday: her and Jesus.

 Danny trying on glasses. His will be like this, but blue.

 Charlie and Henry getting some sun.

 Joely trying to get tan. (Yes, he is wearing shorts.)

 You know he's having a lot of fun when he falls asleep during the day. What a treat!

 Seven snails in our cage. It is SO fun to watch them!

 Dick's donuts.

 The boy team at Dick's: Joel, Jack, Miles, and Jude.

 Hot dog party for the kids. Between dinner that night and lunch the next day, I only had to throw TWO away!

 The traditional Flake method of voting on movies, one up and one down.

 Looks like they all agreed on one!

 Fire pit smores party on the Malones' last night.

 Merrody was even back from swim camp!

 Fun short visit with Justin. He brought us cherries all the way from Montana:)

A Father's Day root beer float for the father of my children. Isn't he the greatest?!
