Happy 24th of July!

 In Utah the 24th of July is a state holiday celebrating our pioneer heritage.  This just happened to be the last day that Robyn and family were in town.It was also our last day in town before leaving for Virginia.  Here we are watching some fireworks :)





Life at our house

 It was too quiet in our house one day....this is what we found
 Yes, salt all over our floors
 Sometimes I think Braxton just makes messes to clean them up; he loves the vacuum
Laying on the floor with Dad.  Little copycat.

Happy 4th of July!

 A very RARE occasion!  All 7 grandchildren (minus 2 not born yet) together at the Steenblik cabin!  These kids had an absolute blast together!  So glad we got to see everyone (except Jeff; we missed you!)!  I do not get to see all these cuties often enough! 
 Alicia, Brooklyn, and baby
 Travis enjoying the total cabin experience
Grandma and her birdseed helpers
 Trav and Colette
 Look at this dirty little face; can you tell he played hard?
 Clark hoping for a drive....he never got one

Uncle Dalton comes for a race (and a visit)

Above is Dalton after he ran the race and took a shower.  He fell asleep and Braxton took the opportunity to pile things on him; thus seen by the dog and chips on him.  Uncle Dalton came to run the Spartan race here in UT.  It was probably rough due to smoke and especially because he wound up with food poisoning the night before! We had a fun time getting to know him better and Braxton especially loved having someone else at the house to wake up to!

Braxton

 Eating chocolate cake in the office chair.  He REALLY went to town on this cake.  It was leftover from Mother's Day. 
Papa Jay and Braxton.  Ever since Papa Jay babysat (a lot!) for a few months last winter Braxton lights up when he sees him every time.  I love this picture of the two of them.  Thanks for all you do Papa Jay!
