~The Summer Games~

This weekend we headed down to St. George to stay at Dave's mom and dad's house.  The whole entire family was there to participate in the Utah Summer Games in Cedar City.  The kids loved playing with their cousins, and had fun earning medals.  Hunter participated in 3 events this year.  He did the High Jump (which he won a Silver medal in), he did the long jump (where he took the Bronze medal), and then he did the 100 meter race.

This year we had Mckell participate in 2 events.  She did the 100 meter race (which she took 3rd place in her heat) and she did the long jump.  She had a lot of fun, and got a participation medal for the race.

Dave participated in the high jump and the long jump this year.  He got a Gold Medal in the high jump and then got Silver in the long jump.

Once again the Ropelato's cleaned house.  Our family took home quite a few medals.

Even Garrett was happy to be there :)

Back at the house the kids had a blast playing in the Harry Potter area, playing dress up, and dancing to music.  They really have fun playing with their cousins.

We went for a 9:00 evening ride cause it was way too hot during the day.  Even at 9:00 it was in the high 80's low 90's.

Late one night, Darinda had a Star Party.  She gave all the kids glow necklaces and they went out on the balcony to play around and look at the stars.

Lexi missed the party.  She fell asleep before it started and we couldn't wake her for anything.  But she didn't miss out on all the fun.  The next evening the whole family went and saw Disney's Brave and then went out to eat.  It was a really fun weekend.

Garrett really started smiling a lot over the weekend.  He's such a cutie!

We had a GREAT weekend, I love my family!!!!!
