Summer BBQ and Swimming Activity

We had another very successful Young Married Group Activity on Saturday! There was great attendance and great food and everyone had fun swimming.

Bryan and Suzanne Ellertson, who used to be in our ward (also Bryan is Lara and Brad's brother), were in town visiting, so they were able to attend the activity. Here's a picture of their son Daniel sitting with Maren Ellertson by the kiddie pool.


Daniel Ellertson and Addie Lewis operating the hose to fill up the kiddie pool.



Paul Lewis was head chef at the BBQ; he makes a mean hot dog.




The Spread



Suzanna Nielson with her cute kids Chadley and Dallin (Suzanna's husband Jeff, not pictured here, he's a little camera shy :) j/k).



Jessica Lewis with Addie in the pool.


Tucker and Jessica Jorgenson with their new little addition Ava (sp?).



Back left, then going counter clockwise: Quinn Butler, Joan Butler, Kurt Peterson, Amanda Peterson. Fun little fact: Quinn and Kurt are cousins.




Jack Butler jumping off the diving board to his dad, Quinn. He is so brave!



Daniel Ellertson jumping to his dad Bryan off of the diving board.



The Stringham Family. We're so glad that they came. Way to represent the "young at heart" couples in or ward you guys! We want to see more of these kind of couples out here at our activities...spread the word. Also, we almost don't want to call this group the Young Married Group, because that seems so limiting in who is included...but we can't think of anything else to call it. Let us know if you have any suggestions.

Jane Ellertson and Chadley Nielson relaxing in the pool.



Even though the pool was heated it was a bit windy outside. So after a little while swimming a dip in the hot tub was just the ticket.



Maren Ellertson with Collette Stringham lounging in their chairs, enjoying the nice weather.



We missed all of you who weren't able to make it and we apologize if for some reason you never found out about the activity. We want everyone to be there who wants to be there. So let us know if you know of anyone who isn't be included in these activities.

Thank you to all who came and supported this group by bringing food. Keep your eyes open for an upcoming activity in September. More info to come!
