July 2018

July was a full month! Often summer feels just as busy as the school year, the main difference is that we get to sleep a little more!  Although, even THAT didn't happen this summer because of the saga of the dog fostering...

We were able to do a white water rafting trip with the kids and Lindy with Tucker's work.  It was fun!

Fourth of July at our house.  Uncle Doug surprised us and joined!  The fun accessories are courtesy of my creative mother.

(Paxton's birthday is the 5th, so often his celebration includes 4th of July fireworks)

Oh the puppies.  The 9 babies and a mom.  I can't believe I thought it was a good "experience" and learning opportunity for the girls.  It ended up being SOOOOO MUCH WORK. For me. But they were cute!

(Here is Gigi, she ended up being the lucky one chosen to stay with the Maxfields)

 

A family outing for teppanyaki at Wasabi on Fire.

Always a Pizza Factory Trip.

I played hair dresser and died Lindy's hair for the first time, and added some chalk paint to the kids hair.

 

We usually fit in a family bowling trip.

And eating at Stacked.

A trip to Hanford to have Superior Dairy ice cream and ride the carousel.

My mom's love language is food.  Sometimes its really healthy and sometimes its not HAHA!

 

Annnnnd the summer dance show the kids put on.  They pulled it off yet again!  Thanks to Roberta for the use of the studio!

 

A few friend moments from the summer.  Roberta and I helped Dana move...found her husbands band hats and had a photo opportunity.

Mrs Stone and I at our bi annual dinner gathering!

Birthday dinner for Hannah

Had some friends over for Jen's bday.

Jessie had her baby, Talia, so we took a venture to the hospital to meet her!

And...finally, another creation of mine for the dance company.
