What do you do in the summertime?

The crew at dinner.

We play.  Hyrum's mom and sisters arrived at our house at 3 am Thursday morning.  We are really glad to have them with us.  We haven't seen Sarah and Rachel since last year and we can always see more of Grandma.  We wish Grandpa could be here too but we were glad his love for Scouting brought Lynnette, Rachel and Sarah to us.

We went to a theme park to splash in puddles.
We hung out Thursday so they could recuperate from their late night drive and then Friday we headed to Kennywood.  Kennywood is the local theme park.  Every year Google holds their summer picnic there for their employees and family.  It was great to have Grandma and Sarah and Rachel there because it meant we could buddy up on having fun and watching the kids.

Everyone had matching t-shirts--aside from the mustard yellow, they were pretty cool.
There was Kiddieland where riders had to be under 48-36".  It was perfect for Charlotte and great for Hannah and Jonathan too.  Hannah is just about to graduate from Kiddieland though as she gets taller every year.  The greatest thing though, in my opinion of course are the sprinklers attached to the trees.  They sprinkle toasty guests with a refreshing sprinkle.  The kids enjoyed splashing in the puddles at the Kiddieland location.

I was trying to get a picture of her chocolate covered face.  It didn't work so well.
We had a great time.  It was warm but manageable with the sprinklers.  Jonathan keeps asking when we can go back.  

What kids doesn't love a good puddle.
