Summer Fun!

We have had such a busy, yet fun summer so far. In June, my sister Angie, her husband Aaron, and their son Kayson came to Utah. It was great hanging out with them and we were able to celebrate Kayson's 1st birthday with them.


































These kids were two peas in a pod. They always had to do what the other one was doing and followed each other around everywhere. They were really cute.


Then in July Devin's brother Ryan, his wife Sara, and their kids Isaac and Madelyn came to visit. It was great having them here, and extremely eventful. Here are some of the things that we did during their visit:

4th of July Bee's Game... This is an annual event for the Payne family and is always tons of fun.































Cherry Hill... We had so much fun with all the cousins swimming at Cherry Hill. Uncle Matt even took Adalyn down one of the big slides... as you can see in the picture she was a little scared (but Matt said she loved it up until the end)!












































Hill Aerospace Museum: The kids had a great time looking at all of the planes in the museum. But Adalyn had more fun feeding Madelyn chips and pushing her in the stroller than looking at the planes.
















Payne Reunion: We went up to a ranch in Colorado Springs and had so much fun. We went to Garden of the Gods, went swimming, played with the animals at the petting zoo, went for a hay-ride, and just enjoyed each others company.







































































It was so great having family around, and we loved watching Adalyn with all of her cousins. It was such a wonderful way to spend the summer.

It has been a great summer. I can't wait for you guys to move a little closer. Addie wanted Natalee to take her everywhere when we were at my Mom's on Sat.

That was a big post. I want that video of them on the piano. We have a lot of swapping to do with video and pictures don't we. I am not sure when either of us will get the time with all we have going on, but one day Krystal. Those are some good pictures. Love ya.
