Vegas Trip (July)

The morning after the 4th of July we headed to Vegas for Lyla's baptism.

We got to Jared and Val's house in time for dinner and to hang out.

Eli was OBSESSED with Addie's guinea pig.

I don't think Rocco has ever gotten so much attention.

Look how cute these cousins are doing a braid train.

Lexi liked Addie's birds.

The day of Lyla's baptism was also Lexi's birthday.

So I made sure to get a few pictures of her.

Sadie wanted in on the action.

So did Ty.

And of course a few pictures with the special girl on her baptism day.

After the baptism we headed to Jared and Val's friends house for a party.

The food was amazing!

And they have such a fun pool.
We spent the afternoon swimming.

Then we went back to Jared and Val's house and hung out for the rest of the day.

That night there was a "Cousin Band" performance.

The kids slept outside that night. The boys slept in the tent and the girls on the trampoline.

Here's our traditional Sunday selfie from the next day.

Look at all the kids watching Sean play Mindcraft.

Monday morning we went swimming again.
Ty fell asleep on the drive there and napped for a bit while we swam.

That afternoon, Val helped me make wands for Lexi's Harry Potter birthday party.

All weekend we gave baby name ideas to Val.

The girls decided that Claire was their favorite name.

So they wrote Claire on dozens of sticky notes all over the house.

Then we headed to St. George to see my in-laws.

We had such a fun time in Vegas.
The kids just love being with their cousins.
It makes me so happy to see them being the best of friends.
