Gledhill Grandkids

My parents will never have a bunch of grandkids (considering they only had 2 children and we don't seem to be producing a plethera of offspring) but the Gledhill Grandkids are ADORABLE...if I do
say so myself!

Deano adores baby Noli! He just can't seem
to get enough of him!

Noli adores Brielle! He lights up everytime
she gets near him, its adorable!

 I love these pictures of Nolan because he is smiling in both! Such a little doll!

Everybody adores Bobpa! I love this picture because the kids
are all having such a great time, which is exactly how it
always is with Bobpa!

We love this adorable little guy and we miss him SO much!

Oakley Rodeo

We always go to the Oakley Rodeo (Oakley is near Kamas) 4th of July weekend.  This year we invited our family friends the Losee's to come and now they want to join the tradition too because it was so much fun! I wish I'd have taken more pictures with everybody in our group (there were 20 of us), but here are a couple I snapped with my phone. 

Gracie & Deano doing a little boot scoot boogie!

I can't believe I did not get
a better picture of this cute
little cowgirl

 

This girl LOVES her bobpa!

Bob & Di

I love this picture of Grace & her grandpa...you can see so much
excitement in both their profiles!

Independence Day 2011

I love the 4th of July!!! It's one of my favorite holidays!

Parade 2011

Brielle loved having Claire & Baylee (my cousins girls)
at the parade with us!

These adorable girls (my cousins daughters
Cassidy & Aly) slept out on Univ. Ave
to save our spot for the parade! They
thought it was a blast!

Nana bought the boys matching shirts!

Chris, Levi & McCall (my cousins) ran in the 10k...
actually they "won" & they have the medals to prove it!

It would not be the 4th without a "friendly" Volleyball game!
I wish I'd have gotten a picture of my cousin Mindy (8 months
pregnant) playing!

Deano & his buddy Noli

Claire, Baylee & Brielle...best buddies!

Brielle is not exactly sure she is comfortable with sparklers!
I am definitely not...who came up with the idea of giving kids

sticks with fire shooting off the end! CRAZY

My cousin Taylor teaching Deano how join the big boys &
play with fireworks! Deano especially LOVED the sparklers!

Big boys LOVE fireworks!

We've been doing FHE hikes this summer & it has been SO much fun!

Our first hike was to the YDeano, Grace, Brielle & Cash (we've done most our hikes w/our buddies the Asay's)Second hike was to Stewart Falls.

I love this pic. of Chris & Deano b/c they look so much alike. This time we also took Bobpa & my darling cousin Bayley.

Our most recent 'hike' (was more of a walk) to Bridal Veil Falls.

My cousins daughters Cassidy & Aly stayed with us for a week and they came with us too.

Provo Canyon is so beautiful, we are so lucky to be so close!

"Big Show"

This adorable girlie had her "Big Show" (which is what her dance group calls their 3 nights of the 3 hour show) in June, she was great and she even smiled a couple of times (which was new this year...the last 3 year we have not seen a smile while on stage)! A Very Unhappy Birthday (below) was one of my favorites b/c I thought she looked SO cute!

Wizard of Oz & Aladdin Dances

Little Brown Gal & Ugly Bug Ball

M-I-C-K-E-Y & Finale/Tribute to the founder of the studio who died earlier this year

This show is crazy long...it may have been over 3 hours but Brielle enjoys it and she was in 8 numbers...so we got to see lots of her cute face!
