Time With Families

So a few weeks ago we were able to have some of Steve's siblings come to Utah for vacation. It was fun to let the kids get together and play. We think they really enjoyed spending some time together. Ethan and Drew are so much a like it makes us laugh and wish that they lived closer together so that they could get together to play more often. It was so good to see everyone and see how much the little ones had changed. Steve's parents had a bbq for everyone to get together, updated the Phillips family pictures, celebrate a cousins birthday, and just let the kids get to know each other. The following week we went up to Idaho Falls so that Steve and Ethan could go see the opening baseball game of the Raptors vs the Chuckers (the Idaho Falls team). Grandpa Steve went with the boys and was so nice, he payed for the game and some treats. "THANKS GRANDPA STEVE!!" We stayed the night with her parents and really enjoyed the fun we were able to have with them. The kids and Sharifa are going to spend the 4th with them this weekend and are so excited to see the grandparents again.(We'll take lots of pictures and post them later.) We won't get to stay for the big fireworks show because we want to see the fireworks with our dad!! Here are some pictures of the fun time we were able to have with both our families! The older kids(and Uncle Matt, who is a kid himself) playing.

Basketball finals

So nothings exciting has happened to our family, so we haven't had anythings to post. With Basketball finals here we decided to watch them together and the kids love it, especially Ethan cause he gets to stay up late and hang out with dad. Here are a few pictures of the kids playing while waiting for the game to get started. We're not really routing for one team over the other. We're just happy that the Lakers are not in the finals! The boys wearing their juries! What great looking boys!
