4th of July!

We had a lazy 4th of July! I worked the night before so I slept most of the day. Zach brought me yummy Cafe Rio for lunch. Then I begged my sister Vanessa to come down and play with us because no one else was around! So she did because she loves me. Erika and Blake our friends came over too! We had snacks and fireworks and then played rock band until about 2 am.

Zach spent way too much money on his own fireworks to play with! He was like a little boy and would run and giggle every time he lit one up!

Mallory was not a fan of the fireworks this year and quietly watched us from the front window and then decided to watch a movie on my bed.

The neighbors came over too and watched the CSI fireworks from our Yard!

Circus!!

We got free tickets to the Shriners Circus at the Fair Grounds. It was kind of corny and there were no elephants or tigers just poodles. The Tight rope walk and the Trapeze dudes were entertaining. The girls did have a fun time even if they look like we forced them to go!

Aunt Natalie's Visit!

This is what I saw out my kitchen window last week with Natalie here. She is the sweetest aunt. Sydney was in tears when she left.


Natalie loved the cool Idaho summer and all the green grass. She had the girls bring blankets and lay outside under our tree for over an hour. She said you could never do this in Arizona. The girls loved all the attention.


Natalie grabbed my camera and snapped a shot of us together. (I look like I have a lazy eye and I was on the phone.) We have so much fun even though I'm 14 years older!

Sorry Natalie this is the only cool picture that turned out from the jump house day! She was a good sport on the velcro wall with Sydney. Sydney hated it because her hair got stuck in all the Velcro and hurt pulling it off! OUCH!

We went to movies and the park and watched So you think you can dance, and the Bachelorette! Natalie also went to girls Camp with Zach's niece Saedee. She had a good time at some hot springs and touring Salt Lake. Thanks Bree for inviting her! THANKS NATALIE FOR SAVING YOUR MONEY AGAIN AND SPENDING ANOTHER FUN SUMMER WITH US! WE LOVE YOU!
