Welcome Home Peter

I am a little slow on the posting, but last week we spent a long weekend down in Southern California with Scott's family. His brother Peter returned home from his mission, and his sister Shannon married Mike Davis. It was a very busy weekend for the family! We picked Peter up from the airport, and then later that day went down and had a bonfire on the beach. It was a lot of fun for the kids. Here are a few pictures.

Our family. For some reason, Tyler is showing his stomach in every picture. He must have thought Maci was going to be looking at these:)!!!

Tyler was proud of his sign

AT THE BEACH...

Scott, Tyler, Peter & Haley


Tyler and Dad were so ready for his first body surfing lesson...which lasted one time! After the first wipe-out, Tyler was finished. It was okay though, because everyone was being told to stay out of the water because of sting rays! Yikes!



The kids loved watching Shannon and Jenny get the corn ready. Then, when it was time to eat they LOVED IT! Jake wanted some corn so bad, but his two cousins didn't seem willing to share!
Here is the fire, with Brandon, Brittany, Shannon, Brooke, Tyler & Haley all ready to cook the Hot Dogs! Too much fun!

I love going to the beach too. What a great idea to grill corn on the beach. A little disappointed that Scott has traded his WHITE swim trunks for RED ones - isn't your mom still shopping for him?

Hi Tyler!
Have you been working out! You are so tan, your hair is perfectly styled, and I can even see your chiseled abs! I MISS YOU!!!!
Love,
Maci

p.s. If Scott has truly retired the infamous white swimsuit, then you need to send it to Christine. I just think that's the least you could do for her after all that she has done for you!!!!!!!!!

Fun times at the beach. I've been waiting all summer to go but I can't recruit anyone to go with me. Definitely not an adventure I want to take on by myself. Looks like you all had a ton of fun.

Looks like quite the party. The beach at sunset, you can't get much better than that.
