July 2017

The four kiddos at Grandpa and Grandma Wright's house for fireworks. All of them had fun except the timid little guy that would only watch after I had the blanket wrapped all around him and only his eyes peeking out. After it was over he said he really liked it though!

Beautiful sunset!

Jello in one hand and watermelon in the other. She knows how to celebrate the 4th of July!

Waiting for the fireworks to start! Love my kiddos!



I know this is kind of weird, but while we were waiting for the fireworks to start, Hailee came up with this idea to make a heart out of my feet and then all of the kids wanted to try. Haha!

We tried out the new place for fireworks this year at Snake River Landing. It was great! (Except trying to get home afterward took forever)
Who knew that the broken swing set slide and our kiddie pool could be so much fun!

Another fun day of boating!

Playing on the giant "Redneck Waterslide" at the Wright family reunion! The kids had a blast as always! This year was the first year everyone loved it, even Laila!

Hailee wrote this on her white board in her room. I think she's perfect just the way she is!

Someone got into somebody's play makeup at the babysitter's haha

Snapchat fun (Mommy and Hailee)

Witch hat, bracelets, undies over diaper... this girl knows how to dress haha!

Splash Park fun! This was the first year I got to sit back in the shade and watch. Oh it's sad that our little babies grow up so fast, but there are some perks too!

Fun times boating, swimming, and eating licorice! Except the little guy that wanted to go home because he saw storm clouds in the distance

This handsome kid turned 10 yesterday! Almost everything was Lego Batman for him!

Fun times watching the Blue Angels practice over our house!

Yeah! We got a "new" bike for Owen at the D.I. He's pretty excited to learn how to ride without training wheels!

We got to go floating down the river by Mack's Inn again this year with Kyle's family including his brother Gary who was up visiting. It's so beautiful up there!

Love this girl! We get out of the van, and within 2 minutes she's already gathered a beautiful bouquet of wildflowers
I love this picture! I just wish Dallin was in it, but he was the one taking the picture

Here's Dallin with some gorgeous scenery behind him

We even saw a big moose in the river with us!

The big story of the day was when Grandpa accidentally tipped the canoe over and he and Grandma fell in. They were both okay though and we needed a funny story to share!

Dallin is such a Lego Master Builder!

Playing at Toys R Us!

Robin and Batgirl!

He did it! It didn't take him long to learn to ride his bike! Yay Owen!
Guess what that is? It's a tiny funnel cloud! I have always had a fascination with tornadoes and have always wanted to see one. I actually had a huge fear of tornadoes as a kid, but it later turned into a fascination, so whenever there is a storm, I always watch the clouds and scan the skies for a funnel cloud. The other day we were sitting outside watching the storm clouds go by when suddenly Hailee says, "Look! It's a tornado!" Sure enough, it was a tiny funnel cloud in the distance. I got way more excited than I should have, but it really was cool. The funnel cloud was actually more over by Ririe. The second picture was taken by my friend who was over there at the time. 
Oh just some more pictures of fun times at the lake with Kathleen! Surfing, losing the surfboard, tubing reeeaally slow with the little kids and one between my legs haha! Dustin's brother came and brought his cool old 1977 jet ski that you can only ride while standing or kneeling. I got to try it out and it was so fun! I didn't realize how tricky it is! I may be covered in bruises from it haha

Having fun at Kathleen's neighborhood party!

Oh Laila! haha! This is the look you get when you realize the slide is a LOT bigger than you anticipated! She loved it though! The other picture was from the third time down when she accidentally flipped onto her belly. She was all smiles though! This girl is fearless

Playing kitty and puppy was the new fave around our house

Zoo with cousins!

It's so fun to spend time with cousins!

Rexburg Rapids!

Funny random picture. We got home, and I look back in my rear view mirror to see Laila and Owen asleep, and Hailee pulling a funny face at me in her princess tiara. 

 I used to collect these cool toys called "Precious Places" when I was a kid. They seriously were some of the best toys ever invented! Well, I have been trying to buy a few more off of ebay when I see a good deal so these kids can have a nice set to play with.
