Uncles

 

We had a couple of uncles around our house quite a bit this spring and summer.  Uncle Dale (the youngest in my family) was working at the Lagoon Amusement Park all summer long singing and dancing.  We drove the hour up there for his dress rehearsal, and then we got to see him in between Kaylee and Emily's dance competition that they had up there in June.  If I hadn't been so pregnant we would've liked to have actually gone to the park for rides and everything and see him again, but we had fun the couple of times we did get to go.

 

He even made it on to Fox News!  Click HERE to see Dale dancing as a baby!  :)

 

And here is a little clip of him singing too!  

Also in the early summer we had Matt's brother (the oldest in their family) stay with us during the weeks.  Their family was in the process of moving from Heber City up to Rexburg, Idaho.  He still had to finish up work in Salt Lake so stayed with us during the week and then went to his new home on the weekends.  The girls had a blast hanging out with him for Family Home Evening and hopefully he had fun sitting in on our craziness...especially during Lehi Roundup Week.

We don't have immediate family very close anymore!  We do have some cousins, Aunts and Uncles close that we get together with every once in a while.  Matt used to have 2 brothers living here in the valley, but both of those families are gone now.  :(  Matt's parents are the closest...2 1/2 hours away.  We miss having family around, thus the reason we travel up to Wyoming as much as we do!  We do love those times when the Uncles pull out the guitars, or make our kids laugh!  We miss having the cousins all get together!  We do make the most of it when we are together though...that is for sure!  Thanks Uncle Dale and Uncle Ryan for hanging out with us a little bit this summer!  :)
