More Utah Fun with the VanOrmans

The first weekend in Utah we spent with BJ's side of the family. They all came up to my parents cabin in Eden and we spent all day on Saturday at the lake. It was so fun to see all the cousins playing together. We rented a wave runner and took turns taking all of the kids out. It was a great day!

Grandpa Howard got down in the sand with the kids. They love him!

BJ's only sister Kaysee and her daughter Sadie. I don't know how she put up all those years with 5 brothers! It was fun spending time with my sister in laws as well.

The older boys got bored waiting to ride the wave runner and so they covered themselves in sand.




Uncle Scott and his 2 oldest Tyler and Emma were one of the first to ride the wave runner--we really needed to rent 2 but it was not to be.

BJ's parents are the best in-laws I could imagine. They have always been supportive and loving to our family. We love you guys!

BJ's brothers have always had this contest---Who can look the most pregnant? I'm soooo happy to say that BJ never wins!!!! I think the Gold medal usually goes to Ryan but Danny is getting mighty close I'm afraid!!!!

Todd, BJ, Danny, and Ryan. We were only missing 1 brother--Mike. We were sad that he and his wife couldn't make it.

It has become a tradition in our family for BJ to make each of our kids Mermaids/Merman (usually with decorative shell fins and all). This time he ended up spending a lot of time digging in the sand as each niece or nephew came over and wanted the royal treatment as well. It was so sweet!

We had a whole line up of cute little Mer-people!

What a fun day playing at the Lake! Thanks VanOrman's for making it such a fun weekend!
