These are some of my favorite pictures that I have done from some recent photo sessions. I am really enjoying photography. These families were so fun to have sessions with. You can check out some more at my website lizstephensphotography.blogspot.com 
This is my brother and his wife Lindsay who just had there little guy on the 22nd. Can't wait to take pictures of him next time we go down to Burley!
Well Friday was the last day of the summer semester. Brett is so excited to almost be done with school. He has one 4 credit class to take this fall and then he will be a college graduate. He is really ready to be done. We all are excited for the changes to come. Along with the excitement we are nervous and a little scared because we have know clue where we will end up and what exactly we will be doing. He is going to start job searching soon. Brett wants to work for a wellness corporation. When December comes I am sure we will be sad to leave Rexburg and the home we have made here together for the last 4 years, but it will be a good change that we are looking forward to.
Grandpa got out the scooter to let Avery have a ride.
Oakley doesn't love the water as much as Avery so she just watched for a little bit after her swim.
Summer invited us out to her house Sunday night for a hot dog roast and smore making then fireworks. Brian's family was there too so Avery had lots of friends to play with.
Even Oakley tried out gramcrackers.... and loved them!
Watching the fireworks!
We also watched the 4th of July parade in Rupert with Steve and Linds. We got lots of candy, popsicles, and Avery even got a beanie baby bear from the parade.
We had to go home Monday afternoon because Brett had to be back to school on Tuesday so we did our own little thing. We went swimming at the new Rexburg Rapids. It is a very fun place. Avery had a blast. She was sad to have to go when we did. We also got a few fireworks to shoot off ourselves. Our fourth of July weekend was filled with lots of fun. We are so grateful for our country and all who fight for our freedom!
Avery had fun jumping with Kiah.
Afton was a speedy little climber.
We also got in a fun game of mini golf with Steve and Lindsay. The prego lady won (Lindsay not me... no I am not pregnant again).
We all also went to see Cars 2 at the drive in. We were there about an hour and a half early so Nancy's van became the hang out and play spot for all the girls.
Another fun thing we did was go to the dinosaur museum/park in Ogden. The kids really liked it. I know Avery had a blast. My mom even made each family their own family reunion shirts to wear that day.
And we just hung out at the campground and played games together. It was so fun for Avery to get to play with all of her cousins. She loves to have other kids to play with. They also have a water park at Cherryhill that we played at one day but I didn't get any pictures, we were having too much fun swimming!
