24th Afternoon Festivities

Mike and Jen were in town for a few days over the 24th of July. We had lots of fun with them. My Aunt Teresa has started a tradition for the 24th of July. We all gather in American Fork Canyon to enjoy a dutch oven dinner, pioneer stories, and games. It is so much fun. On the drive over this year we watch the storm clouds rolling in. It rained while we eat dinner but stopped when we finished not long after dinner.

Dan came with us in the car to the festivities.


He is nice to put up with Katelynn all the time.



After dinner the boys enjoyed a game of bocce ball.



Here is Grandma Barnes and Rachel. This was after the rain stopped so were not all hiding under the trees.


Katelynn enjoyed dessert the most as you can see from the chocolate on her face. She also got very muddy and dirty. It was fun.


This is Mike's goofy face that I was lucky enough to get on camera.
