Fantastic Fourth

Because the 4th of July was on a Sunday this year, we celebrated on Sat. the 3rd. We started with the ward flag raising and breakfast. Tyler was in charge of the flag raising. I couldn't see well enough to get a better shot. Hey, I'm glad he's in the picture at all!
Then we got settled and waited for the breakfast to begin.
Alyssa just looked darling in her "Red White and Cute" shirt
Bryon and Tyler both enjoyed the breakfast. With all you can eat pancakes, you can't go wrong with the Alger boys!

(Tyler is diffictult to get a good picture out of, he kept making silly faces)
The boys enjoyed the tradition of decorating and riding their bikes in the primary parade! Didn't they do a good job?
They always have fun events. Like this cake walk....
(Thanks Amber for taking Alyssa and Justin around.)
They both won! Justin is picking his cupcake here. I was glad he won since his brothers had and he REALLY wanted a cupcake like theirs!
Happy Justin!
Jeremy helping Alyssa with hers ;-)
Look! We actually got a family picture! All of them were such great sports at having it taken!
Jeremy and Justin's face painted art...
Michaels too.

Beautiful Girl!
Yummy BBQ by Chef Steve! (due to erased program, this pic is sideways)
Jeremy lighting fireworks with....a magnifying glass! How clever is that!
We had a wonderful day, I'm so thankful for our freedom. Happy Independance Day!

Tyler's Promotion


As sad as this is, we only have this picture of Tyler just after his Promotion ceremony. For those of you that don't know what a "promotion ceremony" is, it is a middle school graduation of sorts.  It's hard to believe we won't have any children in middle school for a couple more years. Tyler has been an excellent student and is heading on to Sheldon High School in the Fall with Bryon. He will be starting the honors program, following in his older brother's footsteps. We are so grateful for the boys accomplishments and hard work. Way to go TYLER!! XoXo

Pioneer Trek

Bryon and Tyler got the wonderful opportunity of going on a Pioneer Trek with our stake just over a week ago. They had a wonderful experience. I had to share these pictures because they were so good!
Bryon with his "family" on the Trek. He was the oldest "child".

The beautiful sunset after a long hard day.

Tyler with he and Bryon's friends, Williams and Baringer.
Thanks to Bryon for sharing these pictures with us! XoXo
