4th of July!!
This past 4th of July weekend we went up to Salt Lake and Evanston Wy. to spend time with family! The first part of the weekend we spent with Colter's Nonnie and Grandpa, and their puppy Rusty! We had so much fun! We took Rusty to the local dog park, where he loved getting into the water and playing with the other dogs.

On Saturday, we went to Colter's Aunt and Uncle's for a BBQ and firework show. Cameron was estatic about lighting off his own fireworks. He had so many of them, I couldn't believe how long it lasted.
Then we drove up to Evanston to hang with another one of Cotler's aunts. Colter couldn't wait to go off and buy his batch of fireworks. We had another BBQ and played with our cousin's new puppy, Nilla the whole weekend. She's the cutest thing in the world!!!!
Birthday Catch Up Party
After the Scottish Festival, Colter's family had a party to celebrate all the birthdays that have occured the past couple of months. Nonnie bought the new Wi game "Just Dance," which everyone enjoyed throughly. No one so much so as our own Uncle Dan. The video will be in the next post. It is the funniest thing I have ever seen in my life!!! Here are some pictures of the events of the night:


Bagpipes galore!!!
Here's a couple of videos from the Scottish Festival!!!
All bagpipe groups in Utah entering the field for the opening ceremonies.
Scottish Festival!!!!!
Last month Colter and I went to Thanksgiving Point to see the Scottish Festival. We had so much fun! Colter really enjoyed learning about his heritage. We found the official "Montgomery Clan" where he learned about where his family came from.


There were bagpipes aroudn every corner always playing! There were also Highland Games there, which are hilariously awesome games that must have been invented when a bunch of guys were drunk one night. Lifting and throwing 20 ft. long log as far as one can, thowing barrels of hay over poles.... and much more ridiculous displays of masculinity.
Nonnie came and met us there, just in time for the opening ceremonies where every bagpipe band in Utah strode out on the field and play the Scottish National Anthem! The ground literally felt like it was shaking, it was bonechilling! The BYU ROTC Air Force Cadet Drill Team also performed, who recelty returned fromt he national drill team competition, where they won first place- beating their hosts, the Air Force Academy!!!
Broken Camera
So, a couple of weeks ago our camera broke at a family gathering. Therefore, it's been a while since I've been able to post anything, So I'll be doing some catchup!!! Here it goes.....

This past weekend we got to go to Durango with Colter's family. It was amazing! I love spending time with his family. Rick did an amazing job on his bike race, especially considering he's still recovering from a broken back, neck, and ribs from his car crash last year. We loved spending time with our nieces, Sydeny and Bella. They are so cute! Let's just say Bella makes us a little baby
hungry. :)
Sydney loved the train that went by our hotel. Colter got a bunch of pennies and put them on the tracks for her. We got to have an amazing dinner at Sweeny's, where we met up with some old friends from Woodland Park Ward.
We also got to see Robin Hood, which is a pretty good movie. We're so happy Bella is feeling better since she changed to formula. She has changed quite a lot since the last time we saw her. Colter couldn't get enough of her. It was either me or him holding her the whole weekend. 
Sydney is also as smart as ever. We had so much fun in the "tunnel" and the bubbles we brought for her. There were a ton of people in Durango for the weekend, especialy the race. There was a never ending line of racers climbing up the mountain. There were no breaks of people. It was pretty chaotic but a lot of fun.
Nothing makes you miss family more than getting to spend a little bit of time with them. We really hope to be able to spend more time with them once school is done.
