I made this cake for the 4th of July celebration.  We actually ate it after Dalton's baptism.  After Dalton's baptism, we went over to my sister-in-laws for lunch and hung out there the rest of the day.  (We needed a bigger place and they were not at home.)
On Sunday, we all went to church then had dinner together.  Some had to go home because of work and 4th of July parade activities (they were on Monday).  My sister and her hysband and my parents stayed.  We took them to Sand Hollow and played on the water a couple of hours.  My parents haven't been to the lake with us, yet and they had a blast.  My step dad loved the tube and had a great time.  Then we watched fireworks in our front yard.  They switched locations, so we had to sit in the street to see, but we didn't have to leave our yard.  That was awesome.  Good times!
The next day we packed up and headed to my older sister's for a few days.  Mel couldn't come with us, he needed to work.


This is my sister's pool.  The kids loved swimming and got in the pool everyday.  Alee was doing tricks in the water and jumping off the edge.  She wouldn't go down the slide though. 

My Mom's sister from Canada was visiting.  We were able to spend a few days with them.  My cousin also blessed their baby while everyone was around, so it was nice to visit with them, too.  We didn't do a whole lot.  Just hanging out, a little bit of shopping and listening to my Grandma tell stories.  She has a whole lot of them to tell!

We found out that my younger sister is pregnant, too.  So there will be three new babies coming at the end of the year and beginning of next year.  There was a lot of morning sickness going on, so that is why we didn't do a whole lot.  It was nice and relaxing.
