4th of JULY

THE FOURTH OF JULY IS SUCH A FUN HOLIDAY... THERE ARE PARADES, BARBEQUES, SWIMMING, AND OF COURSE FIREWORKS! WE DECIDED TO DO SOME FIRE WORKS AT HOME (SAFE ONES OF COURSE), GO SWIMMING AT
MY MOM AND DAD'S HOUSE, AND THEN HEAD OFF TO THE FIREWORKS SHOW AT THE U OF R STADIUM. WE DID MANAGE TO GET BOTH KIDS TO TAKE A NAP. THIS WAS GREAT BECAUSE WE DID NOT GET HOME FROM THE FIREWORKS UNTIL AFTER TEN.

FOR SOME REASON MY PICTURES ARE SHOWING UP FROM THE END OF THE NIGHT TO THE BEGINNING. HMMM, LETS JUST SAY I AM STILL FIGURING THIS BLOGGING THING OUT. OH YEAH, IF ANY OF YOU READING THIS KNOW HOW TO CHANGE THE FONT, WHILE BLOGGING, PLEASEEEEE LET ME IN ON THE SECRET. I HAVE NO CLUE HOW TO CHANGE IT. SO FORGIVE ME FOR THE SMALL TYPING, I WILL TRY TO FIGURE IT OUT SOON




I JUST LOVE THIS PICTURE, AND THE PEOPLE IN IT!!!


THEY DID NOT LIKE HOW NOISY THE SHOW WAS!


I BOUGHT US ALL MATCHING SHIRTS. I THINK I MIGHT DO THIS MORE OFTEN, :-)






MY TWO BEST GIRL FRIENDS.

PAINTING



WE GOT A NEW PAINTING SET TODAY, AND HAD TO TRY IT OUT THE SECOND WE GOT HOME. WE PAINTED EVERYTHING IN SIGHT, EVEN I GOT PAINTED ON. IT ALL STARTED SO INNOCENTLY WITH A LITTLE PAINT ON THEIR HANDS. IT THEN MOVED ON TO THEIR FEET, AND CONTINUED FROM THERE. THEY HAD A BLAST! CLEAN UP WAS EVEN FUN. BOTH B & N LOVE PLAYING IN THE WATER, SO WE JUST MAD IT A GAME.
I LOVE THE SUMMER, IT IS SO FUN BEING OUTDOORS. ESPECIALLY WITH MY TWO WONDERFUL KIDDOS

TERISSA

Nathan & Brooke's niece is staying with us for a few weeks. We have been enjoying every second of it. Today they decided to put on a show. I got the camera and got a shot of the girls singing twinkle twinkle little star. I just love how they have their little hands. We will miss her greatly when she goes.



THE KITCHEN

Well, we finally decided to re-do, the no good, terrible, disgusting, ugly, &**@@%**, floors (can you tell how I felt about them)! So being the intelligent person, I decided that we should paint our kitchen cabinets also. Get two things done at once, right??? Wrong! Never do two huge projects at the same time. Our house was a disaster. Not that it is always "clean" , but let me just say disaster one more time. We decided to hire out both grandmas to help us get some kind of control. My mom, came to paint (brooke helped also), and Aaron's mom watched the kids. It took us about two weeks, but we are pretty much done.
