July was a pretty busy month
Tayler, Kenna and Jadyn's birthdays.
AND...
the 4th of July of course!
Which started with the traditional "scout pancake breakfast".
So glad that Shelly & Jeff's family were both here to celebrate with us.
Some of our family missed the breakfast...
(Shane, Tayler, Jadyn)
Because they were off watching Tay in the Lewiston Parade...
The rest of the day was pretty lazy...
But we did have a family BBQ @ our house that night. :)
3 of my 5 brothers...
and my only sister...
(and Jeff's little one Kate)
were all there.
Dusty helped us with Kenna's present from the day before.
Tayler and I were NOT good at deciphering the instructions...
we only had to take it apart 4 times.
Tayler is not amused.
But we finally finished.
And now we have so many toys in our backyard, it looks like a full-on park...
Feel free to come over to play!
We sure have loved having cousins around.
But it's no fun saying goodbye. :(
We had 2 weeks of swim lessons for Jadyn and Lydi.
Lydi has no fear.
I was totally against "water wings" with my older girls.
Just felt like they should learn to swim without them.
But now I don't have enough eyes to watch them all every second.
So I've caved.
And honestly it's a big relief to me, because she is in and out of that pool like crazy!
They both did great in their lessons.
And Kenna had fun swimming with friends while they were in their lessons.
One super hot day we went to the "splash pad".
And I think these girls are just plain adorable. :)
Tayler and Saige spent a week at EFY @ USU.
Loved having them home at night to hear all about their experiences.
Saige went with Kaylee for her 1st year...
And Kelsee and Tay went together for their 3rd year.
They are strange...
Shane went with Tayler and Saige to Youth Conference for a couple of days.
They had a blast.
Such an amazing group of youth in our ward!
There was "dress-like-a-cow-day" @ Chick-fil-a
Free food is just not something I pass up!
(Lydi is not pleased that her ear and nose fell off in this picture. hehehe)
Last year Jadyn would have been hiding under the table if the "cow" had been there.
Look at our big Jady now!!
Tayler, Saige, Kelsee and Kaylee went later that night.
Those "cow pants" totally came in handy!!
We have gone for shaved ice about a gazillion times.
Lydia loves Blue Raspberry... can you tell?
There was the North Logan Parade
Once again my little ones were super happy to be able to ride on the float.
and then there were the North Logan Fireworks for the 24th...

and the Hyde Park Fireworks the weekend before...
An event that our family will NOT soon forget!
Because of this little thing...
Poor kid!
Saige excitedly let us know that the "American Girl - Doll of the Year"...
was the coolest ever!
Her name is Saige...
She has brown hair...
and blue eyes...
and I think she is saying that she wants her.
We should have bought stock in that company a WAY long time ago!!
We spent a fun Family Night at our neighbors house...
they were doing a fundraiser for a library in Africa.
Everyone sure had a good time!
And then there was lemonade...
Lots and lots of Tayler's famous "fresh squeezed lemonade".
O, how we love summer!!!!
We ended the month of July with a week @ Bear Lake.
A totally successful July.
Not really excited that it is already August.
August means school.
And our family...
is NOT ready!
