I have been gone for a couple of days helping out with some of our grands.This is one of my cute little bugs...Sophia. I just love her cute little antennas!
I hadn't been to McDonald's since my kids were little.My daughter Lindsey and I took the little ones there
for lunch and they had so much fun together.

Hold still... lets get a picture for grandma.
Peek a Boo Caleb!
We had fun shooting baskets...
Later, I caught a picture of Ella and Ollie...
They just love to dance together...at least one of them does!
A pretty rainbow out of my daughters window...
Sophia and her first kids meal...I guess she's a real American now!
Our sweet-faced great grandson, Tracen.
I'd give anything, if I could look as cute as Sophia in a sun bonnet!With a chocolate dipped strawberry in each hand, a Heavenly
Summer moment!
My daughter Tiffany took these last two pictures of her kids.I just love how sweet they are as they sit looking up at this
statue of Jesus!
" I LOVE TO SEE THE TEMPLE "I love to see the temple, I'm going there someday
To feel the Holy Spirit, To listen and to pray.
For the temple is a house of God, A place of love and beauty.
I'll prepare myself while I am young, This is my sacred duty.
I love to see the temple. I'll go inside someday.
I'll covenant with my Father; I'll promise to obey.
For the temple is a holy place where we are sealed together.
As a child of God, I've learned this truth: A family is forever.
(a Primary song, written by Janice Kapp Perry)
I hope your summer is going well and you are having lots and lots of fun!
It's still not been that warm here, getting lots of rain. The warm days are
a bit of Heaven to me and I am getting out and enjoying every one of them.
SENDING YOU ALL MY LOVE

Watermelon Pie! Now who came up with that. I think we'll have to give it a try, though.

Well, who knew you could make watermelon pie? Not me! This sounds like a fun one to try. I suppose you have to eat it quickly so it doesn't get soggy~
Love the pictures of the kids-and those spiky pig tails! And...the pictures of the children looking at Jesus are just a blessing! Hope you are having a wonderful summer- XO Diana
I have a half of watermelon in the frig, and wondered what to do with it...thanks for saving the day.
Your grandchildren are adorable, and you are so cute yourself!
My grandsons 10 and 12 still like Mac Donalds, but want more than the kids meal, haha.
Best of luck to you on selling your beautiful home! I must say, I'm kindof sad to see you sale it.
Although, I'm sure you will make your new HOME wonderful.
Love the pictures of your cute grandchildren. I especially love the Temple pictures.
Thanks for sharing. You always brighten my day!
I've missed you this summer!
I can make a mean peanut butter pie, but I've never tried watermelon pie. This could be interesting. :)
The grandchildren are so cute! That watermelon pie looks delicous, too! Thanks for sharing the pictures.
Awww...so fun! And I'm cracking up at those tiny ponytails sticking straight up! :)

Take care, friend.
I enjoy so much seeing grandma with her grandbabes! The picture of Sophia holding the strawberries... she LOOKS like a strawberry! Just the cutest Julie!
Have a great day!

Hi Julie!
Looks like you are having a very wonderful summer! The pie looks so delicious - I have half a watermelon in the fridge . . . think I will give it a try!
Your grands are so adorable! I can tell that you are just in seventh heaven when you are with them!
I love the song, "I Love to see the Temple"! I was watching a show about Janice Kapp Perry a few weeks ago, and she said that she wrote the song about the Idaho Falls Temple - that's temple in our area! So, every time I am at the temple, or see the temple, I think of that song! Such a touching picture of the kids by the statue of Christ...just beautiful.
Hugs,
Barb
Julie, your watermelon pie looks delicious! And your grandchildren are just adorable! Your home is so beautiful, I'm sure you will find a buyer very soon. It sounds like you are selling it for all the right reasons, so lots of good things to come.
That pie looks delicious. I made one of your recipes last year using the Kool-Aid for desserts for my son's wedding luncheon. I trust your recipes! :) Darling grandkids, Ella and Ollie make a cute dancing couple. Love the pictures at the temple and visitor's center of your sweet grandchildren.
Your pie sounds so good....I have watermelon in the fridge now.....
Oh my, I just read that your wonderful home is for sale....where are you going?
Hi Julie! Watermelon pie? Oh, I've never had it but it looks and sounds good. I love watermelon so I'll bet I'd love this too!
Your little grands are just so sweet, Julie!

I would rock and nurse my youngest babe at night and look out our picture window at the Provo Temple all lite up and sing that delightful song to her. Thanks for sharing another great post. Happy day Julie.

First off, I have never seen anything like that watermelon pie and it looks sooooo yummy!!! Second - how in the world have you avoided McDonald's all these years??? But you know how I feel about McDonald's, right? (LOVE!) I drove to Las Vegas yesterday and was wishing I would look out and see your beautiful home ... I wanted to come up to your door and meet you!!!
You always post the best recipes. I love watermelon and having it in a pie...divine.
Beautiful grandchildren. You are so blessed.

Watermelon Pie....Oh my. YUM. Grandkids are adorable.
delicious pie s riht for a hot summer day - loads of beautiful photos of our grandchildren and YOU! Love to see the joy on your face -- and the song "I Love to see the temple" - it was one of many song I signed in sign language and this one I taught my deaf twin sons back when they were tiny little boys -- so it hold a soft spot in my heart we even sign it as a family later on for a large group of people.. those were the days of busyness indeed!..
I am intrigued by your watermelon pie...cool and creamy!
Your grands are ALWAYS cute!
Great kid-pics. They are all so sweet.
Hi Julie...boy have I missed seeing your beautiful little grands for the past five months...I was away far too long from blogging....Love Sophia's antenas ...as usual you pie looks wonderful....I am officially back to blogging after being in NJ since February....if you have time to stop by I did a post about the wonderful military funeral we had at Arlington cemetery for my FIL....wonderful photo's of the service...it's two back...Anyhoo, missed your fun posts and glad to be back...Hope your having a wonderful summer....Sue in Atlanta
oh boy does that pie sound delicious. I love watermelon.
The grandchildren sure do look like they are enjoying their summer. Love the picture dancing with the dog...lol
What a beautiful post with GREAT inspiring photos. I am completely down with making that Watermelon pie this weekend, but the pics of your granddaughter dancing with her unlikely partner the pup, is priceless as are the photos of the kids looking up at the statue of Jesus. Any luck selling your house yet?
Such fun photos! I love Sophia's little piggies:) I have never heard of watermelon pie, but I sure want to try it!
What a beautiful family you have! Will have to give the watermelon pie a try. My grandsons loves watermelon!
Have a wonderful day,
