Happy 4th!

We were luck enough to be able to spend the holiday with family and friends...

Hanging out with the girls...(thanks Doug for the baby sitting!)

Emmaline and Avery, so patriotic!

Emmaline threw a ball for Dixie and Dallas then wasn't so sure that she wanted to share!

Fetch! They waited so patiently!

Don't ask...it's amazing how easy it is to be silly with Emmaline!

Silly Uncle Bob and Papa

Happy Birthday Nauna! The "cookie" tasted even better than it looked, thanks Aunt Debbie!

Catching fireflies with Aunt Debbie

Both Grandpa's together, what a lucky girl!

Celebrating Nauna's Birthday! (Look at all that smoke!)

Both Grandma's together, what a lucky girl!

Cousins Emmaline and Lyla dressed in their red, white and blue!

We started the holiday by running a 5K!

Father's Day

By the end of the day Emmaline was a little crazy! This is a bag for felts that her Grammy got for her, apparently it doubles as a hat! 

When she discovered her new "hat"...

I don't know who that other little girl was, Emmaline is always this calm and laid back!

We started the day off with a "picnic" breakfast on the front porch

Last Week...

After church Emmaline felt the need to climb...

On the way home from church, getting up energy for the afternoon!

Future athlete?

Sabbath Pictures

Tonight we actually had everybody together in one place! It's so nice that the kids all play together so well and have so much fun!

Emmaline and Avery taking a break from the big pool

This was the 1st time this year for Emmaline in the pool, 

the water was chilly but still lots of fun!

Being a flower in sabbath school,  "seriously people..."

It's definitely more fun to plant the flowers

Collecting rocks before going to sabbath school, another fun new past time!

What we've been up to this week...

Swinging...

Just hanging out...

Making artwork at school...

More Fountain Fun!

Yes, back at the fountain again...the 3rd time in the last week! You can't go wrong with free entertainment!

Making friends. "Let me show you how it's done"

Emmaline is getting much braver! What a great way to get out the energy!

Getting ready to leave to go play!

19 Months Old (Tuesday the 8th)

A CRNA in the making?

I have to take pictures quickly because Emmaline wants to look at the picture, usually before it's even been taken!

"Cheeeese"

"But I don't want to grow up!"
