Let the Good Summer-times Roll'

July has been so fun!

The Iverson family vacation was the second week in July.  However, we traveled to California a little early so we could celebrate the holiday weekend in California.  Our first stop as we rolled into California was Disneyland - California Adventures.  We played hard all day there, Then up early the next morning to run a 5K in Huntington Beach with Nicole's Family, McKell and Grandma.  We enjoyed the rest of the day hanging out with Nicole's family and watching firework together that night.

On Sunday, we went to church, then visited the Mormon Battalion Visitors Center in San Diego. It was so fun to share that with the kids.

Monday we joined more family - enjoying body boarding at Newport Beach, then a relaxing family wide water fight in the swimming pool, then dinner and a grand Family Home Evening with the whole Iverson clan.
Tuesday we returned to Newport Beach, and more fun in the waves.

Tuesday night, we all went to the Dodgers game. That was very fun, and so interesting. Graham was ready to catch a fly ball, too bad none came our way.

Wednesday was Knotts Berry Farm. The kids roller coaster-ed all day and stayed until late. Graham and I left at dinner time.  The awesome swimming pool at the rental house sounded good to him.
Thursday we drove all day back home, with lots of good memories.
Saturday, Carson had his last track meet. He had a good experience with that.
Also in July, we went to Snowbird ski resort and did all of their summer activities. We have always wanted to do it, but this was our first time doing it all. It was a fun afternoon.  Here we are at the top of the Tram ride, looking down on the opposite side of the mountain.  We ended up camping down in that valley the next week . . .

For the 24th of July, we all ran the Brandon Evans Memorial 5k. Everyone got PR's and top finisher medals. How fun.








Later we went backpack camping to Pittsburgh Lake. It was a really hard hike, but so pretty at the lake. We had it to ourselves for most of the time. Graham fished, I read, kids explored, we made s'mores. It was a good trip.



Right now, Audrey is on Trek, Carson is about to leave for scout camp, and Kate is going on a soccer retreat. Chad and I and Graham will be left behind, though Chad is going for a night to scout camp.
We are all a little sad to see July ending, but it is so filled with memories.
