Rachel, Emma, and Baby Gabriel came to stay with us for 3 weeks starting on Saturday, August 7th. Emma flew from Madrid, Spain to Phoenix to drive up here with Rachel and Gabe. Rachel is helping Emma get situated here at BYU for school in a few weeks. Gabe really does smile and giggle a lot, just not for pictures.
He is so cute!
Goldings hosted a really fun BBQ at their house for all the out-of-town cousins to get together on August
12th. Amanda, Rachel, Emma, and Chelsea were all here. Kelly and Mollie couldn't come because they had a wedding. 
What a cute picture of Lizzie and Afton.
We had 6 of the 10 babies born (in the span of a year or so) to cousins together at this picnic. Jamie/Cora, Amanda/Paul, Chelsea/Afton, Amanda/Logan, Rachel/Gabriel, Shayla/Jocelyn. So fun to have that many together at the same time. (The other 4 babies were Preston Hutchins, Kenya Brown, Anders Neilsen, Elsa Neilsen) What a fun bunch of cousins and babies!
The babies loved having their turn on the trampoline. Amanda is in position to make sure Gabe doesn't launch himself off the tramp.
Jojo in mid flight,
Renae was helping Afton "jump" on the tramp. (It looked more like a "stand" on the tramp.)
The teenage population of the party . . . . . Lizzie Golding and Dakota Green
Grandpa Joel with Cora Green. Jessica and Jamie.
Grandma Nae and Pauly-Wog. (We miss him terribly since they went back to Texas.)
Dakota had Afton laughing so hard while he was pushing her in the swing. It was so cute.
Joel, Kailey Green, Annette, and Scott Neilsen hanging out.
Renae, Jamie, and Jessica chillin'
Cory took 4 of the babies on a wagon ride. It was so cute. Here is Jojo, Gabe, and Logan.
Jojo, Gabe, Afton, and Logan. Such cutie pies!
Rachael giving Afton a little swing. How cute are they?!?!?
Afton loves bugs. She found a potato bug and loved to have it crawl all over her hand.
We were so excited to see Lisa and Cory Brown and their 3 boys Riley, Blake, and Colton. We haven't seen them for a few years.
The next evening Goldings came over. This is the only picture I got. Lizzie had walked over from the Scera Pool so her hair was in a towel and Afton couldn't really understand what was going on with Lizzies head!
Fun times!!

I love all the pictures! It was such a good time. Thanks for everything. And Afton really does love bugs...I guess I'm going to have to get over my aversion to them
Love it! That was fun!
