July has treated us Well

July has been busy and hot, but we are getting more and more settled in each day, which is such a great feeling. We are mastering the ins and outs of what it means to take care of a pool, and it is very much of a love - hate relationship. But we are loving every minute of it.

I was trying to capture Vienna's curls that are so adorably cute.

We toughed out our ward pioneed party, even though Everett had a fever and it was miserable but they did a very good job!

One of our super yummy dinners from the grill

Vienna just kept loving playdoh time one day and made lots of yummy party food. It was so cute to watch her imagination just soar!

Our tent from Mema that is our kid changing room and anything they want it to be.

This sweet little boy is almost 7 Months old. Has 2 little teeth on the bottom and must be teething his tops b/c he has had fevers and isn't sleeping as good as usual.

Vienna and Bryson play so well together, its so fun to watch. Here they are having a tea party!

The next pictures are of our pool party with Steve and Tiki and family and Grandma and Grandpa. It was all of their first swims in our pool. Since we have had so much trouble with it we haven't had a chance to have everyone over, but we did and it was a BLAST! Even Steve went down the slip and slide.

Our new pool floaties

Tiki getting the kids all ready. We need an umbrella don't you think.

Grandma with her granddaughters

The boys talking about staining the fence, mowing the lawn and maintaining the house.

The big picture

I asked Mike to take a few pics so that I might be in one, and this was the best one.

Apparently Vedder has never gotten his face wet in the pool or anywhere, however on the slip n' slide he was allowing it to happen and LOVING every minute.

cousins!

Grandma and Everett!

dinner time with the toddlers

I absolutely love with picture...its water balloon fight time. We L-o-V-E water balloon fights. We didnt have too many balloons, but we still had a great time with them. Kids can't get enough of them.

Grandpa with Everett man!

We are adjusting to having our new trampoline that we got for free and getting ready for our trip to Mema and Papa's house. It's our family reunion (minus 1) and we are ready for some fun! Every night is a project, but hopefully only a few more months of that.
