Brinton's first swim in Grandma Ber's pool was a success. He quickly pooped in the only swim diaper I brought for him, leaving him ready to go skinny dipping. He loved the water- splashing, kicking, and all the attention from his sisters.
Speaking of attention...
While Devin was out of town doing a training in California, and Michelle and her kids were out of town, Greggor and mini Greggor Jamey took the boat out in the iceberg infested (probably) Jordanelle.
Jamey and I tested our manhood by waterskiing.
Thanks Myla, for casting a spell to make such a beautiful sunset!
Brinton loved going fast on the boat, and quietly sang to himself while the boat's engine was purring. Thanks Grandpa for snuggling him.
Cambry loved being up in the bow with the wind.
Vienna had permanent claim over flag duty, and performed her responsibilities quite magnificently.
Just a cute grandpa with his cute granddaughters.
One time while we were at Thanksgiving point, I told the girls we could go on the wagon ride. When we were all situated in the wagon and the horses began to pull us, Myla says, "Is this the dragon ride?" hehehe. After a little explanation about the difference between a dragon and a wagon ride, we decided to pretend one of the horses was a unicorn named marshmallow, and one was a dragon named nostril. ?? Kids are awesome.
This cupboard is in the masterbedroom. It is super big and deep, and recently became the favorite hide and seek spot. Frequently when Devin came home from work, all 3 girls would be crammed in here waiting for him to find them.
Friday night pizza and swim party with the Ainas and the Wards. These guys are some of our favorite people, and our kids all get a long so well. Nights like these make summer so fantastic.
Cambry loves creating. Life is one big art project for her. :) I love her creative ideas.
A night out with the Rappleye women for Sara's birthday! Rodizio grill and a chat by the gateway fountains was a wonderful evening.
Matchy matchy patriotism, and one submarine photobomber.
We went up to Hill Airforce base for the airshow, and got to poke around the museum while we were there. It's so impressive to see how planes, jets and helicopters have evolved and improved.
little poser, by her "favorite wheel". This girl is so funny.
My cousin Parker Lawrence got married, and we went to the reception and got our moves on on the dance floor.
Brinton just happy to be here.
Vienna has been riding around this little bike with training wheels for ages. She borrowed the neighbor's balance bike for a week, and was able to coast without needing her feet down. Devin decided it was time to take off the training wheels. He takes them off and is about to give her instructions, and she took off on her own before he could even stand up. She is super sturdy and confident on her 2 wheeler.
Just some pool snuggles real quick. Love these 2
When Brinton wakes up from his nap, all 3 girls race up to his room and climb in to play with him. We all love it.
Cambry and Vienna were taking turns laying under Brinton and hysterically laughing when he trampled them as he jumped. What goof balls.
Father's day photo. We sure do all love this guy!
Myla taking a rest on our little hike. Unfortunately, this was the only pic I took the whole time.
One of the girls' favorite spots. Standing on the back of the couch, up in the window. Prime placement for dancing, watching for Daddy to come home, and yelling "hello" at passerby's (Vienna's favoirite).
Brinton was not a fan of this sibling train.
Another pony ride at thanksgiving point. We usually start or end our stay here. Myla was the smallest kid in line and picked the BIGGEST horse by far.
Myla called this pony- the cow, and that's what we've affectionately called every time we see it.
We met up with our Elkington friends at the Dinosaur museum.
Playing on the fossils.
Cambry lost her second tooth while eating an apple. She didn't know it came out and was so confused why her apple was covered in "red stuff".
Oh Myla, how we love you. She dresses herself and refuses naps. She's up at the crack of dawn and goes, goes, goes until she crashes... usually in very uncomfortable and awkward looking positions and places.
Clothing optional.It's hard work being little!
