4th of July Fun at Gma's House

(Posted By: Rachel)
Face painting was a great hit! Aunt Beebes is an awesome face painter. 
 My cousins, Peyton, Makayla, and Cayla, and I got a smoke bomb or American flag on our left cheek, USA on our right cheek, and BYU on our fore-head. We begged her to put a mustache and goatee on us but she refused and said that our parents would not like it if she did that. 
 Elizabeth and her firecracker.
 Gavin making a cat face with his "blue cat" complete with red whiskers and white eyes! Great imagination!
 Here's the face paint freaks!
Rachel, Cayla, Peyton
  Dad and Levi were always down at the "launch pad"/ sports court together so my dad could make sure Levi didn't blow up!
 Here we're singing happy birthday to Atreyu/ Bunkin Boy! Notice the smashed cake. ;(
 Birthday people! Brandon was trying to make Peyton (his daughter) blowout his candle 'cause apparently he doesn't have birthdays anymore. He ended up lighting her candle with his every time she blew it out!
Uncle Brandon, Peyton, Cayla, Levi, Aunt Bethie 

My mom was trying desperately to get this picture but every time she let go of Trey to snap the picture, he would go running laugh hysterically over his shoulder at the 'game' of chase till she caught him and then do the same thing when she let go again! Meanwhile Wesley is just standing perfectly still like a good little boy. She finally got this picture of Trey laughing with Wesley looking a little annoyed. :)

4th of July Memories!!

(Posted by Rachel)
Wednesday morning our ward had a 4th of July breakfast completed by a parade.

 Levi had fun racing with his buddy Treyson. Carter is in the front there. Gavin's friend's dad brought out his go cart car thing you see in the backround.
 I wasn't sure if I was going to do the parade because there are only two poeple in my church class that go to primary and the other person dosn't come very often so I wasn't sure if I was going to be the only one my age doing it. But lo and behold that one other girl showed up and brought her bike to do the parade with me.  
 Gavin was having a blast with his scooter. He actually goes pretty fast on that thing!
Elizabeth's bike fell off of our bike trailor on some highway back in Utah on Sunday so she had to share Gavin's scooter even if Gavin wasn't so thrilled with that.

Gavin's dream came true when got to ride in the car!

 When we got home I started to make a cake for Grandma Conway's party. It was a cake made out of cupcakes.
Good thing we took a picture before we left because sadly the stupid car in front of us, three minutes before we got there, abruptly slowed down and my dad had to slow too so the cake slid off the pan and onto the floor of the car. Luckily most of them weren't face down so when we got to Grandma's house just put back together and they tasted the same!
