Summer Lovin'

Summer is here!!
At least it finally has begun officially feeling like it!!

We love to go boating in the summertime. There are so many places to go within an 3-60 minute drive and we really enjoy it. We invited our friends, the Hodges to go with us this time and ended up at Palisades and had a great time!! The kids had a fun time too!!
Kaydree and Mommy tubing- this is all they'd let me do :(
(Sorry Stacie! I couldn't get your pics to load!)


Brayden and his mad driving skills.......Austin's really been teaching him!


Stacie and their boy, Michael
And Stacie and Mitch's new nephew....we all went to see, Baby Zach
(5 days late and only 6 pounds 4 ounces...just a little guy but so cute-their 3rd)
And what would Idaho be without this???????

The Chuckars are our minor leauge team here(for the ROYALS) and
businesses are always giving out free tickets....so we've been twice already!!

And Kaydree finally built up her courage this year to meet "THE Chuckar".

Brayden and candy...........can always be found together :)
Happy Pioneer Day Too!!
Our stake holds an annual pioneer day celebration. It's always a big hit!!

Kaydree, Brayden, and cousin Kamryn

Brayden and his sweets again.......look at that determination!!

My sister-in-laws friend, Trista- she was amazing and even standing on the back of a semi!

What would pioneer day be without a hatchet throw?...........

Or girls dressed as pioneers........ok...........

Or this?.......(for YOUR viewing pleasure) and at a church function.
I had to laugh!!!
OHHHHH! I just LOVE the summer!!

{July, summer fun, and Family}

I haven't posted in awhile because we've been having so much fun!!!!! Here are just a few pics to highlight our fun!
My mom and dad drove up from CA to visit us for the 4th of July! We had a lot of fun even though the time flew by. I love all that 4th of July brings!!
I just love this pic!

My boys watching sports on a huge TV at a restraunt we went to. So cute!!
Grandpa showing Brayden the fish.
Grandma with Kaydree at the parade.
My aunt and uncle came to visit us too on their way back to CA from a family reunion in Canada. We went out to dinner and then invited ourselves to go swimming @ their hotel. The pool was 90*!! Thanks "Udy" and "Ennis"!


A little while ago, my friend Noelle and I also took our kids to the spray park in Rexburg(it's FREE) and then took the kids on the carousel for only a $1. We try to get together at least every week and do something fun with the kids for summer time. The kids had a blast even though Kaydree wasn't too sure about the water slides!

And on Saturday we took the kids up to Island Park where Austin's building a cabin and took the kids fishing. It was a lot of fun minus the no bug spray part. I have welts everywhere!!! Afterwards we went to Mesa Falls to see the waterfalls!
Brayden loved throwing the worms back in!!
And the Grand Tetons driving through Ashton
Just hanging out in our yard. We love playing outside!
