Dalley family get togethers:

Sisters, what more do I need to say?

Steve trying to find a little peace and quiet, us Dalleys get a little obnoxious and loud at times, can you blame him?

The four of us were able to go to lunch without kids, thanks to Kate! :)

Tawny is so great with all of her little cousins, we've had so much fun with her in town!

Two days after we got home from Provo, my sister, Lisa and her family came to drop Aubree off at EFY and stay for a week. I am so glad that I am the one that gets to host my siblings. I love spending time with my family and getting to know them better. We got everyone together as often as we could so we could spend lots of time with Lisa and Steve and their kids.

McKenna is a natural with kids, James LOVES her!!!

Dallin absolutely loved his little dunebuggy rides with Brooke.

Tanner would not let me get a picture of him, so Clint had to give me a little help:

On our way Home

On our way home from Provo, really we were on our way home from Manti, Shay and Matt were sealed and that is one time I should have taken pictures but didn't, so Shay, send me a picture. Anyway we stopped in Parawan because James was needing a little time out of the car so we got lunch and ate it at a park we found. After eating, Will and Patrick were seeing how fast they could run, so Patrick needed a little rest:

James had a great time playing on the playground:

Will loves swinging:
This is not a picture on our way home, it is a picture of my boys at the Oquirrh temple. Will and Patrick especially, were so excited to see the inside of the temple. Patrick loved the murals painted on the walls in the endowment room, but his favorite thing was the mirrors in the sealing room, he really loved looking at himself going on forever and ever and ever and ever......etc.

Quality Time

This will forever be one of my favorite memories with Will:
Before we came up for the 4th, my inlaws met me on I15 to hand over Patrick and Will for a few days. My boys were so excited and they loved every minute they spent with Grandma and Grandpa. I missed them so much, the house was very quiet, which was nice, but it became too quiet for me
Well, in between all of the festivities, I got a chance to lay on a blanket with my sweet Willy and just talk. I don't really remember what we were talking about, we were just "hangin out" enjoying being together. I'm so glad John saw us and thought to take a picture, now I will always remember this special day.

4th of July!

We couldn't stay at the wedding for the fun activities and lunch after because we had family we had to get back to. Gary and Kammie were also in town, so we headed to Mark's house for a BBQ and fireworks.



















As you can see, John and Gary wore their matching Ute shirts to be Patriotic. "Great minds think alike!" :)


This has to be my favorite picture of my boys and the reason why is Willy's face, look closely...isn't he precious?

Summer Wedding

Our busy summer started on the 4th of July! Tonja and Damien were married about noon, it was a beautiful wedding. Tonja, I'm so very happy for you, Damien seems like a great guy, can't wait to get to know him better!
I had so much fun getting reacquainted with my old roommate, Bridgette, she is exactly the same as I remember her-super fun and also very smart.
I also had a great time talking to Tonja's Grandma and mom. It's been way too long since I've seen them and it was so nice to be with them again.
