Our 4th and Friend Time...

Are you ready for a picture overload??? I'm gonna go back to the 4th of July, since I haven't mentioned anything about it yet...

We started our morning with a neighborhood breakfast at the Law's house.
It was so fun to get together and hang out.

Then, all morning we just hung out with Damon. It's always great when he's home:) This is how I found Bria and Micah watching a show. It was so sweet! They brought Colton over for a picture:)

That night, I made my mom's super yummy fruit ice cream...which has become a 4th of July tradition! YUM!

We just set off some fireworks of our own...

Then went up onto our deck to watch some from the local Junior High. We had a great view!

Later on, we went around to deliver ice cream to some neighbors and ended up hanging out with them until almost 1 in the morning:) The husbands watched a movie and all the kids...and us girls went to toilet paper someone's house for her 40th birthday:) It was so much fun! We hid in the bushes and waited for her to come home:) Unfortunetly I don't have any pictures, but I will say that it was the BEST toilet papering job I've helped with in a very long time!!! Happy Birthday Monica:)
So...that was our 4th of July! The following day (Saturday) is when our friends came over for the reunion. We had such a wonderful weekend!!!

This week we've had lots of fun with our friends too! On Tuesday I had 5 additional girls over here for a good 3 hours (obviously missing 2 in the picture). There were some issues cuz Micah was a little out-numbered, and has a little "crush" on Kloey (the girl on the right).

They had fun collecting bugs, feeding that HUGE caterpillar, and playing in the waterfall.

This past Wednesday, we went to the park with some other moms from the ward. It was so much fun that we ended up staying for a good 3 hours...and the kids were good and tired by the time we left! Bria was entertained by making bracelets, and the boys just ran around having fun. Here are a couple pictures from the park...

And...just so you know...this will be my last post for a bit. I am off to Girl's Camp on Tuesday!!! Lucky for me, Damon will be staying home with the kiddos:) Fun times!!!

Wow...more proof that we never really grow out of our childhood. Toilet papering at 30! Cute pictures of the kids and it melts my heart when the syblings get ALONG and are sweet to one another.

Oh, and you'll definitely have to let us all know how girls camp went!

haha! Sorry about the aging you...how far off was I?! I do well to keep up with how old I am...I even have to double check with Jon sometimes. I stopped counting at 23 for some reason. We are only as old as we feel, right?!
