. . . I'm going to dump a bunch of random photos and videos into this post in no particular order. 😁
Diana, Penny, and Douglas are ready for the wedding day of Nate and Valerie.
Douglas at the Draper Temple for Nate's wedding.
All of the kids love baby Ivy.
We visited Thanksgiving Point during the weekend of Nate's wedding. Here's Penny flying a plane in the Museum of Natural Curiosity.
I told Diana and Penny to act scared in front of the shark.
Schofield at Thanksgiving Point's Butterfly Biosphere.
Clayton, Kate, Taylor (holding baby Kendrick), Sam (holding baby Ivy), Spencer, and Schofield at the Airbnb house Grandma reserved for the weekend of Nate's wedding.

Douglas, Diana, Penny, Maxwell, and Denali riding the wiggly things at Granny's house.
Sam tried out one of the wiggle things.
I don't understand Youtube. I uploaded four videos of the kids launching a rocket but it won't let me embed those particular videos into my blog post (maybe because they are vertical instead of horizontal?). So, here are the links:
Douglas - launch attempt #1
Douglas - launch #2
Penny - launch #3 (I smiled to see her using her fingers as she did the countdown)
Diana - launch attempt #4 (a "countUP" instead of a "countDOWN")
A beautiful evening for a rocket launch.
On the fourth launch we decided to use a more powerful engine. It was too powerful! The rocket launched so high that the only thing the kids were able to recover was the bottom portion of the rocket. The cone and parachute floated off a few miles away from our launch site. We didn't bother searching for them.
Playing with baby Ivy at Grandma's house. Diana thinks something's funny on Grandma's phone.
Diana taking pictures of "Foxy."
Penny and Diana outside with baby Ivy.
I was sick while we were at Grandma's house. So, Stacie did some acupuncture on me.
Diana was worried about the needles in her Dad's face. She made sure I was comfortable.
We've had our minivan for six years. The bluetooth headphones that came with the van sat untouched for those six years. We tested the headphones last month and the kids love them. I love them too, because now I won't have to listen to Octonauts or The Incredibles the next time we go on a road trip. 😁 I still get to hear the children's cute reactions (laughter, singing along, Penny's raptor screeches, etc.) to whatever they are watching, but without having to hear the show itself. The vehicle only came with two sets of headphones. Diana is using my headphones in the photo.
Diana's interesting use of the umbrella.
Sam put Diana and Penny in a tumbling class. They love it! It's only held once each week, but oh how they look forward to tumbling.
Diana likes to dress up.
Sometimes her dressing up includes wetting her hair and sticking a leaf to it.
Penny playing outside. We should put her in a kickboxing class.
The neighborhood kids (including Roman, Petra, and Savannah) like to hang out at our place.
We celebrated Joseph's birthday earlier this month.
Joseph, Sam, Penny, Denali, Diana, Grandpa, Gideon, Douglas, Maxwell, Ari, Granny
The kids like to ride down a pathway near our home. Here's Penny waving as she goes by.

Sam had the kids fill the blanks for me on Father's Day.
I suppose I'm turning into an old man. I still enjoy reading the newspaper.
Sam took the kids to a nearby park/trail.
Because I'm becoming an old man, I'm trying out a new emoji.
You are not old, Daniel-son.
