It's 4th of July Tradition...

The 4th fell on Sunday this year so we forfeited the swimming and pizza part of our tradition, but we still threw a heck of a BBQ... The kids played with firecrackers, pop-its, and sparklers. We ate a TON! And we all got to play a little bad mitten. Oh and there was of course a fairly weak display of FIREWORKS. (we were cheap this year)Dustin practiced all nite on Hunters rip-stick(not sure on the spelling of that), now he's practically PRO at it. Of course it's one of my favorite times all year to be with all our friends just hanging out. LOVED IT!!!!!

Stand up and Paddle!

All my girls from Title Nine had a little-bit-o-fun Paddle Boarding last night. We had such a great time. I didn't even fall in, actually no one did! It is such a fun sport, you get a sweet workout for your abs and your arms. I think I am gonna drag Dustin out for a date...

Happy Birthday Alexis...

Here she is... a picture each year of my sweet baby girls life.
I can't believe shes going to be 8. So many years of sweetness brought into our lives, we love you Lex.
