Apricot Ice Cream Festival
I worked for several days ahead of time to try and perfect a Ginger flavored ice cream with chocolate shavings.
Preparatory to the festival, the cousins were able to play together.
Emily, Camille and Brook did Baptisms for the Dead at the temple.
Ellsworths joined us at the Provo Pool with Emily and DaLynn's kids. Here are the stragglers before we left. Look at those clouds in the background!
We also made tie-dye shirts. I'm not sure I have any pictures of the final product though.
The morning of the festival we went on a hike with Dave and his son, Stuart and son-in-law, Ben.
That evening we had a fantastic BBQ. Especially when, after 60 hamburgers had dripped their grease all over the BBQ, a fantastic fire broke out. That was fun! (not)
Pictures of our past years of festival celebrating!
The mass exodus down to the street sign for "Apricot Place" to take the annual picture.
Family reports
Voting for the recipient of the Apricot Award.
And the winner is: Bryn! for going back to school and pursuing her love of art.
Awarding the traveling gift, "the Cane" for turning 50 years old.
Lucky Court! The big 5-0.
And then we got completely rain out.
A serious down pour.
The rain chased us inside where we made pony-bead ice cream cone keychains.
That ended our party a little prematurely because our house is pretty small to try and fit the crowd that is our extended family. But we had a lot of fun and look forward to it every year!
