Utah


Makenzie and Jordan and two of their cousins got to go to a two day science camp with Southern Utah University.  It was up in the mountains and it seemed like they had a lot of fun!

Tyler had to fly home after a few days to get back to work.  Unfortunately, the next morning Ellionna woke up dry heaving and was not in a coherent state.  She scared me enough to take her to the ER.  They checked everything.  She wasn't happy about getting her blood drawn and getting an IV, but she  was still not acting normal.  They had to give her morphine to get a cat scan done.  After that, she started coming around and talking and acting herself!  She was mighty tired though...

  
And then she asked for ice cream... So we knew she was coming around, although she threw it back up soon after. 

I had to laugh because my Dad had his arms folded like the bear behind him and he didn't even know it!  

 Ellionna got sent home with all the tests coming back normal.  We think she was having some absent seizures, but we will never know for sure.  She has been fine ever since!

Sisterly love!!  




We took the kids down to St. George for the day.  There was a fun children's museum there.  They could have stayed all day there!



Little miss is now sitting up!!


We played outside at a splash pad and small stream.  
We saw the Sister Wives family there.  That's my claim to fame.





We enjoyed the Cedar City fourth of July parade.  Small hometown parades are the best!  It did not disappoint!

We, of course, had to visit Grandpa Sherman and decorate his grave.  We sure do miss him!



My Dad put the kids to work with mowing the lawns... a childhood memory that I have!  


We had a BBQ and fireworks with Josh and Mandy.  The dogs are Shayla's mom, Pixie, and brother, Otto. 










Sea World

I guess I got tired of taking pictures by the end of the week.  I don't have very many.  


Ellionna got a fish to feed the sea lions, but a bird got to it instead.  
Yeah, this smile didn't stay on her face.

Cousins that look somewhat alike!

Waiting for a show!


And really, that is a wrap!  It was a whirlwind of a week!  We ended the week by driving to Utah!  Let the vacation continue!

Free day

So luckily we planned our Thursday as a free day at the vacation home. It was great to have a lazy day to swim, sleep, and catch up on laundry.  

Amelia was passed around the family!

 Yummy food and great company!

Having a light saber fight!


Swimming!

Tyler and I had a double date with my brother and his wife.  We had dinner and played arcade games!  
4-way air hockey!



Our prize winnings from the tickets we won!




Universal Studios

We went to Universal Studios on Wednesday.  Makenzie was beyond ecstatic to be going to Harry Potter land.  She ran off with her older cousin Kailey for the day.  So this is the only picture I got of them.  They rode the Harry Potter ride seven times!


Checking out the extremely expensive wands.  


Despicable ME ride



We watched a Water World stunt show.  Jordan was harassing this guy by "booing" him, so the came up and scared Jordan and made him fall back in his seat!  It was quite hilarious and showed Jordan whose boss!


 Enjoying a extra large donut.


This is just a piece of what we did.  We spent the whole day there!
