Saturday July 5th was the day the Dulaney's left to return home to Missouri. Ed and Josh drove down to Orem to pack up all their stuff from the event the day before. Lisa and her girls packed up all their stuff at home. And the cousins said goodbye. Earlier in the week Emily and Meagan brought me this lovely Christmas tree. We had grand plans for it, but it is still in my backyard as I type this.
That night Roy, Rhonda, Steve and I went to the temple. Here is Zac helping grandpa get ready.
The sunset as we were leaving the temple.
On Sunday the Kentucky Schmids and the Missouri Schmids went to church with us. Reagan and Aubrey had matching skirts and shirts. The funny thing is whenever their fathers get together, they always have matching clothes too. On Monday morning the Kentucky Schmids left for Idaho. Spencer is going to BYUI in September and they took a tour and then went to visit some of the lovely country up there.
I also set out on an adventure Monday morning! I had the awesome opportunity to go to girls camp for 3 days with these lovely ladies!
And these!
Steve picked me up Wednesday night and brought me home. Thursday morning my mom and I dropped off my sister Lauren and Steve's brother David for the Special Needs Mutual Pioneer Trek. They had a fun time. Click here for a news article about the event.
That evening Roy, Rhonda, Steve and I had the opportunity to go to the temple again.
On Friday, July 11th, we went to see America the Movie. It was so good! We were in a completely sold out theater and everyone clapped and cheered at the end of the movie.
We enjoyed gelato and a fountain show after the movie.
I was looking at these two wondering how on earth I came to have teenagers.
And then low and behold, look who we ran into! Kentucky Schmids returned from Idaho! They were going to try to make it to the movie with us, but they may or may not have witnessed a shooting which put them behind. They ended up in another movie. We all went home together.
After Emily gave Zac a piggy back ride, of course.
