Fourth of July

The fourth was a treat this year because we got to spend it with family and....MARC DIDN'T HAVE TO STUDY!! We were so excited to get out of dodge and hit the open road to Utah. It was so much fun! Our first stop was Ang's house in Rock Springs. The whole 12 hour drive Millie kept saying everyone's names and how excited she was to see everyone! She kept saying "going to Ootah" to see Ang, Brace, Rush, Ry. haha We got there late and we only had a few hours to be together but we sure made the most of it! We had a yummy 4th of July breakfast and then we went swimming! Millie was in HEAVEN to be able to play with Rylee and Rush and to see Ang and Brace. She still says Ang is her favorite but Brace is a good second haha It was fun to see their new place. It's crazy what a couple months can change!

Matching life jackets!
 Though it was short, it was a must to have our 4th of July start off with some fun! Thanks Ang and fam for having us! After swimming we got back on the road which took us 7 hours south to St. George! Millie knew exactly where we were before we even pulled up. She started naming all the cousins and the aunts. We pulled off the side of the road for two second to change a diaper and do hair and Millie was hysterical. She thought we weren't going to go to aunt "Lissa's" house.
We walked through the door and BAM party time! It was so good to see everyone after 7 LONG months!
No one had met Baby Jordan yet so this was a treat to have him finally meet his McRae cousins!
Halie was THRILLED and was such a great cousin. 

Millie loves her girl cousins...only has two!
 It was fun to jump out of the car into an awesome BBQ and party. Seriously was the best 4th we have had in a Long time! When the older boys get together they start scheming and come up with some fun games to play. 
Melissa and Megan, along with the little girls amazing art, made the cutest 4th of July shirts for all the cousins. They are the best!
Millie loved all the treats...she couldn't choose so she had both. ha
