Summer Fun

I'm sure you've noticed we have a really hard time keeping this thing updated, especially this time of year. Even though summer is such a crazy time of year we love it! We have been keeping busy doing a lot of fun things. Here is a little bit of what we have been up to:
First of all our crazy mom and her running friends put together a team and ran in the Ragnar Wasatch Back Relay in the middle of June. The team consists of 12 people who run a 188 mile relay from Logan to Park City in two days. My mom started her team off running the first leg early Friday morning and they finished Saturday afternoon. They all did an awesome job!

The next weekend Jesse came home for a few days for Gentry's wedding and pack up some more of his stuff to take to St. George. Colton has decided to move down there with him to go to school so they are moving to a new apartment. Jesse flew home and he and Colton loaded the trailer full of beds, furniture, washer and dryer and anything else they could jam in. Our dad, Stan, Kayd and Colt drove Jesse back to St. George on Tuesday morning unloaded everything from the trailer into the apartment and moved Jesse from his old one to the new one in 104 degree weather. They left Jesse and were back home by Wednesday night...needless to say it wasn't such a fun St. George trip for them! This past weekend we celebrated the 4th of July about all weekend long! The 4th of July is one our dads favorite holidays so we can't miss any of the celebrating for this holiday. We started the celebrations off at Natalee's house for a BBQ and the Hyrum fireworks. We also made it to the Logan fireworks, our mom ran in the Hyrum 15k, the Hyrum parade and celebrations and another party at Terri's house Saturday night! It was a fun and busy weekend!
While we were playing here Aleisha went with Brady and his family to their yearly family reunion at his uncles ranch in Sula, Montana. They had a fun time relaxing and hanging out, river rafting, golfing and watching fireworks. His uncle hired "Shania Twain" to be the entertainment for the concert and dance on the 4th.

And last but not least.....


Spending a lot of time playing with Rylee!

Yeah!! Your blog has been on the bottom of my list since Kayd's b-day. I'm glad it has now moved to the top. I want to be a Miller next 4th. It looks more deluxe and fun than the Clawson's 4th! Don't tell James though.
