Frost Family Faces

My cousin Alexis got married the beginning of August to a wonderful man from Canada.  The reception was super fun!  The kids loved dancing!  Enjoy the pictures...

 Cutting the cake...

 Father Daughter dance had a bit of a surprise...


 The rest of the family came out and did a west coast swing...

 This was Alexis' reaction...

 They did an amazing job!

 First Dance as husband and wife was joined by Alexis' daughter...

and then the dance opened to everyone!

 Silly Elizabeth

 Ariana and Ella loved dancing with daddy!


 Pretty girl!

 and Max and Elora had fun dancing too...


Love this one of Elizabeth and Ariana :)

Congrats Alexis and Brett ...I know you'll be very very happy!

The ladies from our old apartments decided to get together and have a swimming party for the kids.  This is the only picture I got, but we sure miss all our good friends from Hidden Pines!



and I snapped this one of Elizabeth playing in the sand box while the older kids were changing.  It was sure a lot of fun!

We celebrated to 24th of July at Mindy's house having a BBQ.  It was fun and the kids had a lot of fun with the fireworks!!


 Fireworks are the best fun for Ethan!

 Ariana jumped right in.  She loved doing the sparklers!

 Ella loved them of course...

 Elizabeth was content to just sit and watch...

 Now their starting to do some dancing with their sparklers.

Then Troy lit off a bunch of fireworks.  This was a fountain he held...looks like the Statue of Liberty or something.  We had a very fun time!  Thanks Mindy for hosting!!

My baby brother is getting married...*sniff* *Sniff*...to a wonderful girl named Aubrey.  :)  Cynthia and I threw her a bridal shower for all the relatives and friends in the Salt Lake area.  My Aunt Corrine was kind enough to host it.  It was a pretty good turn out.


The refreshments...



 Opening gifts!

 And of course, visiting and talking!


It was really fun getting to know Aubrey!

We had our Gough reunion over July 4th at Bryce Canyon...well, a little below Bryce Canyon, but still very nice and very gorgeous.  We camped for 3 nights and the kids did pretty well.  It only got really cold one night, and weather was perfectly cool thanks to afternoon thundershowers.  Enjoy the pictures of all the fun times!

 Happy, and sleepy travelers...



So far...camping's good...as long as I have my thumb...



 Of course...Ella climbs all the way to the top...

a baseball game...


Ya Charity...we know you're #1...




Elizabeth enjoyed her S'mores...

Second day we went on a hike. We weren't in Bryce Canyon, but there were still hikes all over and the best part is they were free!  This hike was pretty cool, and pretty scary...it went up switch backs for the first half, then the trail narrowed to drops on both side...I went back midway through that part.  Dan and his boys went up the whole way, I had Ethan and Ella with me, Elizabeth was in the backpack and Ariana went back with the aunts and Grandma when it got too steep...



 








 This is part of the steep drop off...

 Ethan loved the hike!

That evening, Gavin wanted to climb the tree...

 Then Brandon...

 Then they got more rope, rigged a harness and let everyone go up... That's Ella,


 and Mya...

 And Ariana...

 And Elizabeth's own little acrobatics...


 And Ethan got to go up too...

Then it was time for Fireworks.  We went down to Panguitch, and had to bundle up 'cause it was a little chilly...





 Ella being a daredevil again...

 Love this one of Elizabeth...

The next day we went on another, much easier hike...






and then Elizabeth found the mud after one of the afternoon rainstorms...


 and had a ball!

This is the last day...we packed up on Saturday, and had lunch and then everyone took off.
