July is seriously the best month of the year. It starts off with all the fun Fourth of July celebrations, then goes into Birthday Week (another fave holiday) and ends with Pioneer Day. There are parades and activities all month long celebrating different towns and random holidays. So much fun family time! I just love love love this month.

This year was extra special because our brother and sister in law just moved here with three cousins living just down the road for my kiddos to see all the time. We did the USU fireworks together, the Cache Valley Cruise in, our own fireworks and boating at Bear Lake. The rest of the month was filled with sleepovers, splash pads and just good ol’ family time.

We also have my sister just down the road to join in on all the fun. One Sunday night we went up the canyon for a little camp fire and marshmallow roast. My kids are obsessed with their aunt Lolo and uncle PJ…and of course the dogs too. Three more siblings came to town this month to party for a couple of days. The boys did their Pokemon thing, while us girls caught Brooklyn up on good movies and yums. (as she would put it). On top of quality sibling time, I got a little quality cousin time to before my cousins move halfway across the nation. I sure love all our family and I’m SO blessed to be so close to them.
