Dance Pictures

Way back in July my Maile, Alexis and Rebecca had their first dance pictures right before their first recital.  They turned out pretty cute, my girls all did a good job considering they don't let the parents in to make sure they are sitting up straight (Rebecca...), either way they are all beautiful!

 

 

 

 

July/August Wrap up

The last two months have been crazy busy and I completely slacked on my blog.  I am going to try to wrap up the summer in one giant post.  In no particular order here are some things we did during July and August.

 Went to the Las Vegas Natural History Museum with the Grubb family.  All these rascals had a blast learning about all sorts of interesting things. 

 Daddy brought home a giant bouquet of balloons and some flowers for us, might have been an apology in the mix.

 Playing at the park with the Grubb boys!

 Our marathon Wet n' Wild day with Auntie BJ, Ryker, Jade, Tyreese and Mosso.  We got there at about noon and stayed to about 9:30pm.  It was a long but really fun day!

 Swimming at Grandma's house with cousins!

 Along with summer well checks and teeth cleanings we took a trip to the Children's heart center just to make sure my two girls are good to go and they both checked out perfect!

 Another fun Wet n' Wild day, this time with the Grubb family.

 A night on the town for me and my good friend Melanie.  One of my friends who loves country music as much as me!

 Natalie's first teeth cleaning.  She was such a good girl, she got a real cleaning, not what they usually do for 2 year olds.

 Our friend Macy's party at the rec center pool.  Fun day and Natalie loved wearing Zinc on her face.

We definitely used our WnW passes a lot this year.  This time the Lichty Family got to go with us and it was a lot of fun, especially when we found Cooper :)

One last hoorah at Bahama Bucks for some shaved ice.  This was on every one's open house day the Friday before school started!

 

Summer as usual went by really fast be we are glad to be in our new house and back in school. 

July 4th

 Started our morning early at the Summerlin Parade with Grandma.

 They love collecting all the stuff being handed out at the parade, especially candy!

 As we were walking back to the car we bumped into my Uncle John, his wife and kids.  It was so fun seeing them!!

 Grandma took us to one of her favorite doughnut shops, the Pink Box.  It was very good!

 We came home and helped Daddy organize the fireworks, and of course did some afternoon sparklers.

 

 Grandma came back over for a BBQ before heading off to work.

 We ended up the night at the best spot to watch fireworks near town.  Boulder City puts on a great firework show every year.  I love the tradition that is has become for our family, and all the other families who have joined us over the years!

 Auntie BJ, Ryker and Uncle Ryan.  Ryker is such a ham, I love it!

 

 Oh man is it fun teasing these two teenagers!

 Huge group of kids!

 Everyone loves their glowsticks!

Grandpa and Grandma Marj came out to BC , the kids love seeing them!

 My friends, lucky to have them!

 And as if our day wasn't long enough, we came home and Daddy lit off a ton of fireworks for us to enjoy.  His favorite part of the night.  Lets just say the kids are grumpy today from their really long day yesterday but it was worth it, I love the 4th of July, we are so lucky to be Americans and I love the opportunity to celebrate it!
