Park City Extreme Cup Weekend

Alegra's team played in the Park City Extreme Cup this weekend. She had 2 tough games on Friday in the heat. They were close but they lost both games.  They played a consolation match on Saturday afternoon and won 5-1. It was fun to see Alegra back out on the field.  

Lexi, Shawn, and Olive headed up to Idaho for the weekend. It looks like they had a pretty good time!

More pics from a dad that takes awesome action shots! He just had his camera at the last game.

Bike date with Lexi

 Lexi and I had a bike date planned for this morning.  Some trouble with paperwork came up with Alegra's tournament so I had to push back our time a little bit.  We ended up going closer to 11 a.m.  It was hot but so fun!!!  Loving spending time with my baby girl!

We hit a bunch of trails over at Little Valley, Lexi is riding so strong.  Then we drove over to the pump tracks that are by the equestrian park.  We were both HOT...in more ways than one as Lexi likes to tell me, but she for sure earned a snow cone today!!!

Picnic Dinner up at Alta

I heard lots of moans but I made us do "forced family fun" last night.  I packed a picnic to take up to Alta to eat and walk around. It was so beautiful up there!

Glory Cup for Lexi's Team

 The last 3 days Lexi has played 3 soccer games in the Utah Glory Cup.  First game was a tie 2-2 on Thursday night, Second Game they won 2-1 against Avalanche, and then an early game Saturday morning they ended up losing 0-1.  Unfortunately they didn't make it to the championship game which was later today.  I don't know how much gas left these girls had though, so it might have been a good thing.

Lake Powell for Cruz

Cruz got super lucky this week and was invited to Lake Powell with the Farnsworth family (Jake) Tuesday through Friday.  He has been sending pictures.  It looks pretty dreamy!







Lots of Soccer this week

 Alegra is doing the MilanXPro soccer camp up in Park City from 9-1 every day this week.  She has been so sore and worked from it.  Claire, Stella, and Grace Packer are doing it from her team and Laila from the blue team.  I am proud of her, the camp is no joke, and it has been close to 100 degrees every day this week!

Happenings this week

 

Of course we had to hit Seven 11 on July 11th to get the girls their free slurpee!
I checked Cruz into the University of Utah for his week at FSY.  I haven't heard from him complaining, so I'll take that as a win!
On Sunday I ran over to Carpenters to visit Karen.  She was in town dropping off her oldest daughter at the MTC!  It is fun to live in Utah because people usually come through. I got to see Heather, David Jacksons sister, who I actually knew before David and Rebecca ever met.  We went to Israel together.  It was so fun to see her but I didn't get a picture.  I also went to brunch with Maggie Hirt, my roommate and friend from Huntington Beach.  She was in town taking her kids to BYU camps.  We aren't super great at staying in touch but was soooo fun to catch up, but I didn't take a picture of her either. I have been kinda bad at the picture thing lately :(.  


On Saturday before Alegra, Isla, and I got home from girls camp, Shawn and Lexi went paddle boarding at East Canyon. I love these pictures!!!





Girls Camp 2022

Girls Camp was at Lava Hot Springs this year.  It started on Thursday July 7th.  Shawn and I took 2 cars up to Idaho for the 4th.  Shawn left earlier on Thursday morning to be able to make it to some of work.  Alegra, Isla (we invited her), and I left at around 2:00 to meet our YW at the campsite in Lava. The YW met earlier on Thursday at the church but stopped in Logan to do a hike.  It was fun to meet up with them and get camp set up.  We floated the Portneuf River on Friday and went to the hot springs on Saturday.  We were also supposed to go to the waterpark pool but the line was so long to get in we ended up going to a park to hang out and eat lunch before heading home.  It was so fun to be at camp with Alegra.  It was her 2nd year of camp, but last year with covid we only did 1 night at Ann's cabin. This was more of a true camp experience. It was 2 nights of tent sleeping.  Both Alegra and Isla did great.  Unfortunately I didn't take too many pictures.  

this teeter totter was a huge hit!
camp skits!


4th of July Week Festivities!

 

Dang it - pictures loaded in reverse order, so I will tell you about our week in reverse.  On Wednesday July 6th the whole gang went to Heise Hot Springs to hang out.  The pool had been renovated, so it was fun to see that.  From Heise - Macy, Brayden, and they took Cruz home.  Ali, Georgia, Walker, and Elle left and Rich's family left for SLC.  


Grammy even went down the slide -wahoo!

Tuesday night shenanigans with the kids!

Tuesday July 5th the kids and the moms went on the boat in the mid afternoon.  The bigger kids went during the evening shift.  
Monday July 4th - it's always fun to see the Cahoon's at the Victor parade.  Shawn and James had even met up earlier to road ride together.  




The parade and shakes, always a hit!


Sunday July 3rd - church and hanging out.  Everyone was there except for Ryan's family. They helicoptered in at about 4 p.m. just in time to have everyone (except Mia who didn't come) at Sunday dinner!  It was a huge task that grammy pulled off!




So fun to have so many of the family together!


Pierce is obsessed with snakes and it was fun the Cruz and Grant were able to find him one.  
Saturday July 2nd - time on the boat!









Always a huge undertaking to get everyone together but always so fun and makes so many memories! So grateful for grandpa Gary and Grammy for the Swan Valley place to go to!
