Since I haven't posted all summer, here's summer in a nutshell:
June started out with a trip to St. George with my family, including extended family from my Dad's side. We went to Zion's National Park and Bryce Canyon, the St. George temple, and had a fun week in a condo with my parents.
Kolob Canyon, Bryce Canyon:
me and the kids at Zion's, and Eleyna on a 2-hour hike through Zion's. (where she never complained, miraculously)
My extended family on my Dad's side, and the girls at Zion's:
In July we went up to Idaho Falls for the 4th of July, then on to Declo, ID for a Yarrington family reunion.
The Broken Arm Cousin's club, and me and the kids waiting to watch the fireworks:
visiting the graves of Jake's ancestors:
The City of Rocks:
Jake's sister-in-law made blankets for all the boy cousins and jackets for all the girl cousins:
In August, Jake and I took a trip up to Logan, UT for our 10th anniversary.
The rest of the summer, we spent a lot of time at the pool, Eli got potty-trained, our basement flooded, and we're having a girl.

Yay, congrats on the girl! Lots of Estrogen at the Yarringtons. :) The pics are great. I cant believe how big your kids are getting.
Sounds like a fun summer! All we did was go to Idaho a lot. Congrats on another girl! By the way, I am also expecting and will find out in a week and a half what we are having!
Who's that guy in the overalls?
My favorite line of the whole post:
"The rest of the summer, we spent a lot of time at the pool, Eli got potty-trained, our basement flooded, and we're having a girl."
Quite the concise summary of the rest of your summer. Especially the end tag of "Oh yeah, and we're having a girl." Yay for you!
ps--and I loved how you threw in "oh, and our basement flooded," like it fit right in with the camping trips and family reunions, as if it's quite natural to have happened (though, being the third time it has happened now, it's sadly probably starting to feel like part of your "normalcy." Scary.)
