We have a had a great month of July, so far. The following pictures were taken during July. Curt will have his final treatment (39 of them!) on July 30--our 30th anniversary. On July 3 Chris, Amanda, and Cody were here so we went up the mountain for a BBQ. Chris, Amanda, and Lucky rode on the 4-wheeler. Curt, Cody, and I rode in the red truck. We had Curt's "fabulous" (Audrey's favorite word) mutton. It was great. Cody loves to "cheese" it for the camera.
One of the few moments Curt will actually relax. Notice, you don't see me in very many of my posts? I'm the designated camera woman so I don't get in many of the pictures.
Waiting for the mutton to be done. Cody had a fun time in the mountains.
Cody and the rest of his family (+ Lucky) on one of Cody's favorite things in the whole world--the 4-wheeler. All he has to do is hear one and he whips around and tries to see it. On this day, Chris said, "I think we'll take the red one" meaning the Honda 4-wheeler. He didn't even say the word "4-wheeler" and Cody was already making the "pbbbbb" sound. He knows.
On the 4th, Cody and Jayleigh took part in the fashion show. Here's Jayleigh . . . .
. . . . and here's Cody. Aren't they cute?
Cody ran in the 1-year-old race at the park and won. He didn't even give the other 1-year-olds a chance. He really ran. I think it's because Grandpa was at the finish line whistling at him. He knew just where to go!
Cody holding his 1st place prize. It was some toddler puffs.
Jayleigh with her cute little 4th of July outfit that her Grandma Twitchell got for her.
On Saturday, July 11th, we traveled to visit Cashelle and A.J. They took us up the canyon where we could look over the Tooele Valley and the SL valley. This is the Tooele side.
Looking over into the Kennecott Copper Mine. What a view from the top! It kind of took my breath away--but you probably all remember I am petrified of heights. On the drive up (I was driving, too!) we saw some pretty steep inclines. I had a scary feeling in my stomach all the way up--and down.
The kids walking on a hill by the overlook. On the way up, Madalynn and Audrey rode with us. Madalynn asked us "What does trespassing mean?" She had been reading signs when we were almost at the summit that said "No Trespassing." Mind you, she just finished 1st grade. She is quite the little reader.
Curt with his binoculars--his favorite pastime. It looks like it drops right off here. It is quite steep. I was still scared to walk over to the edge. It didn't bother Audrey.
