Jessie's 8th birthday

Guess she got what she wanted

Jordan, Reilly, Shynaia, Jessica, Katie, Kamrynn, and Sarah
a few friends for life
trying to drown the birthday girl (what are sisters for?)
"Everybody pile on Joey so we can dunk him!"

We took the kids to "the Apple Athletic Club" for Jessie's birthday. They played in the water for a while. Then when they started to get cold we had cupcakes and punch. After that Joe and Missy led them in a game of red rover in the water. They all had a lot of fun and best of all, they weren't in my house the whole time.

T-ball

This was Sarah's first year in T-ball and even though the season ended July 2nd (so I'm late so what) I still had to show off how cute she looks running the bases. She would skip to the base then jump off of it to give me a hug.

Swim lessons

The girls really loved swim lessons this year. Jessie is like a fish, she just takes right to the water and I have to fight to get her out of it. Sarah even had a lot of fun this year she actually went to her coach without me sitting on the side of the pool. It probably helped that she had a friend in class. The boy on her right is Kayleb (she says he is her boyfriend).

After the parade

AHHHH!!! Tienamen Square!!!! Don't let it run over me!
rough housing with cousins.
Thinks he's a bull rider!
After the parade we had a picnic, then went to a park in Blackfoot where the kids got to play on these old tanks that are set up for playing. Later after it got dark we sat around and watched the fireworks. We had such a fun time we can't wait for Allen and Laura to bring the kids back again. Or maybe we should take time to go see them.

July 4th

For the Fourth this year Tony's brother and his family came up from Las Vegas to visit. We all decided to go watch Jessie in the parade.
