THE BIRTHDAY BLAST THAT LASTS AND LASTS!!

This was the beginning of a fun packed week for the John Family. It was the week that Julianne and her family came to Utah for the summer. Howard and I had many grandchildren as well as children with birthdays in June and July. So we decided to have a BIRTHDAY BLAST THAT WOULD LAST AND LAST!! Though all members of the family were invited to anything and everything we did , the focus of the birthday gift was for Alyssa (June 25th) Brooklynn (June 29th) Megan (July 3rd) and Paige (July 7th). Each one of the girls received a package of fireworks with a letter outlining the weeks events. It truly was a memorable week for all!



This is McKenzie with some of the grandkids at Temple Square. Alyssa was getting braces this day and not here.







It was beautiful on Temple Square. We veiwed the small model of the temple in the So. Visitor Center and then had the missionaries take this picture outside.

This is Landon in the backyard getting geared up for hot tubbing and s'mores
These are three of my crazy grand daughters dressed up for the campout in the back yard
This IS Alyssa with two of her close friends at her birthday party at Little Flippers. No one dares cut this incredible cake!
Here are some of the fun activities in Little Flippers. This is Megan rolling!It was nice to have Julianne supervising.

This was an amazing cake that Adam made for Alyssa. He truly needs to go into business. It is CandyLand and it had starbursts for the path and the gumdrop forest and the lollipop woods and candycane forest and the chocolate swamp and Marshmellow castle. And I can say it tasted DELICIOUS!!
