FUN FUN FUN!!!

Summertime is always sooo fun and sooo busy! I wish I was better about updating my blog, but it seems like I always wait until lots has gone on and then put it on all at once.



The last two weeks...began with a "princess and prince" birthday party for one our friends...
















So these are my little princesses with their friend, Hayden. Kyler was a huge hit at the party too, even though he wasn't dressed up as anything.





That same week, we got to go to Provo, Utah to stay with Nate's brother, Roman, and his family. While we were there we went to Seven Peaks which was a little crazy with 7 kids, but we endured and had a great time...






















It was a little embarrassing to have to wear a swimming suit when my baby is only 6 weeks old! Kyler was great, though! He just slept most of the time.








When we got back from Utah, we had two birthday parties for Nikosha, who turned 7 years old on Sunday. Her first party was on Saturday with her friends. It was a water party...













Nikosha got heelys for her birthday. I'm not really sure when she's going to wear them, but that's what she really wanted.
























Then on Sunday we had all the family over for brownies and ice-cream...



We have a little problem with the kids all wanting to blow out the candles before we even get done singing happy birthday. I think this was the third try when we just decided to cover their mouths.












We had a great 4th of July! We went to the parade where we got to sit in the scorching sun and collect candy. (We even got interviewed by Channel 6 News, but apparently they didn't care for our comments because they didn't include us in the news that night.) Roman and Roberta and their family came up from Utah, so that was fun to see them again. After the parade we barbecued hot dogs and then took naps. For dinner, we barbecued hamburgers with Nate's whole family. Then we went to Scotty's drive-in and got ice-cream and sat in Scotty's parking lot with a bunch of friends and family to watch the fireworks. It was a perfect 4th of July...

Everyone at the parade kept creeping farther and farther onto the street and this is a picture of Katelyn and Caleb we took at one point during the parade. (They have no clue that they are practically sitting in the middle of the parade.)


Now we're pretty tired after all this excitement so we better rest for our big day tomorrow. (Kyler is getting blessed.)
