4th of July

There was a breeze

Pool about to over flow

Haylie and Morgan watching fireworks

Drew and Emery watching fireworks, Drew was mesmerized he loves fireworks!!!

Paige and Daddy watching fireworks, Paige clapped for each one it was silly!

I am doing a bit of catch up because I have been unblogeriffic. I was just going to skip and not go back but I decided the pictures were way to cute to not post. Our 4th was very fun we had a BBQ and a pool party then we did fire works on the side of my house we had a fun group and a great time. Let freedom Ring. On a sadder note I spent most of the day with my grandpa on my mind. He was not a big parade goer or real into the 4th crowd celebrations but he was a very patriotic man. He loved his country, he fought for his country, and he was very proud to be an American and I could not help but think of him especially when I was looking at the flag. I love you Grandpa and I miss you!

Happy Birthday Drew!!!

My handsome man! I love this boy!! He has been so much fun and such a blessing in our lives. He is wild, crazy, spirited, sweet, kind, silly, funny, smart, so full of energy, and I love all of it!! It is hard to believe hes turning 3. How time flies. Happy birthday my sweet boy, I LOVE YOU!!

My handsome man before he lost his tractor hat, so sad!!

My kids ready to hike

The Mosers invited us to go for a hike at sundance. It was alot of fun, I have been wanting to do more active things with my kids and this was perfect. I carried Paige on my back with a back pack, she loved it she hummed and made little noises the entire time. The girls hiked with the Moser boys and their friends, it was something different and they had a good day. Drew was excited to go to the jungle. On the chair lift we hit a windy spot and his tractor hat blew off. It was so sad, he sat there and said over and over said "oh no, oh no, my tractor hat""bye tractor hat" it was heart breaking. I did not know that he loved his hat so much. We have bought him other hats since but everyonce in a while he say "oh no, my tractor hat flew away" He loved the hike though, and decided that it was not the jungle but it was the mountains and he wants to go back.

My new favorite picture

After a hot Fathers Day we decided to cool off in the pool. I finally got all my peeps together and took this great picture. Paige was so scared of the pool but this day we finally got her to relax and have some fun. Aren't they all so cute?

Zoorific

Looking at the chimp

How do you measure up?

We took the kids to the Zoo on fathers Day. It was sort of a last minute decision but it was so much fun! It has been such a long time since our entire family has done something like that together. The girls always love the Zoo, Drew had a blast, and Paige was in awe the entire time. If you have a chance to go do it! The Ghost of the Bayou is creepy but a must see!

Barneys of the Carribean

Scallywags for life!!
Paige is so beautiful but every time I take her picture she pulls a face like this

I have not been very blogtastic lately so I am going to post every few days to do some catching up. We had a themed family Reunion a couple of weeks ago Barneys of the Caribbean. We usually have a camping Reunion and some bluegrass in the mountains but the campgrounds in Payson still had snow on them so we changed our location to a local park. I was not planning on going but I was glad that I did the kids had alot of fun so it was all good. We had a costume contest, raffles, an auction, crafts, all pirate themed. It was a good day with some fun photo opportunities.
