Life is full of daily adventures. We are loving our summer break from school. Our days consist of daily "homework", reading, and chores. Then we play at parks, swim, play with cousins and friends, go on picnics, fishing, camping, go on bike rides, run some, and laugh often.

4th of July

Dayton Parade -Uncle Bri and Aunt Wen letting the kids ride in the fire truck.

Our day started early since we ran in the Dayton 5K. That makes 4 this year! This was by far the best one yet. My parents fixed us a yummy breakfast after and then we went to see the parade. Oh boy was it an exciting parade too. We watched a truck rear end a semi right in front of us and then a drill team girl fell out of the back of the golf cart and landed on the back of her head (again right in front of us). Who says small towns are slow and boring. Not I says me! After all that excitement we headed up to Jeff and Erin's in Pocatello. All the grandkids had a lot of fun playing together. The fireworks were amazing as always, and we made it safely homes to our waiting beds at 1:30 am.

They say it's your birthday!


Since all 4 of our children have summer birthdays, we had a big birthday bash on the 3rd of July to celebrate with family and friends.
We rented water slides and they were a huge success!


1! 4! 6! 8! (too bad Hannah isn't 2)

Hannah lovin' the ice cream


And Hannah lovin' the cupcake

It was such a fun day. I think our kids were in 7th heaven all day long. Poor Austin had a dentist appointment right before the party to have a cavity fixed. He didn't let a numb cheek and lip slow him down though.
