Boating!

To say we are enjoying our summer is an under statement!


It turned out that Nicholas was legitimately a good driver.


Isaac is a bit on the wild side. (like his dad) He is soaking wet and there was no such speed as to fast.


I was on the boat too, see, here is proof!

Fireworks

Here is the start of blogging about what we have been up to.






Best firework show west of the Mississippi. Sydney was scared the night before at our family firework show so I was a little worried about how she would be at the river. She clapped the whole time saying "yeah fireworks". I think it's because they were further away.

This 4th was a little different than the rest, it all started with my cousin Ben. He was so sick that he missed his flight and later that night went to the ER. We thought it was a horrible flu bug. He ended up with something else. Then everyone was falling like flies. 11 people that I know of ended up with the flu bug. Bob being one. I am crossing my fingers the rest of us don't get it.

There are posts below and more to come. Nik this is for you, we missed you but can't wait to meet baby boy!

Rexburg Rapids!



This water park opened up a few weeks ago. It is clean and awesome for all ages. We all had a wonderful day.




Michele, I have a lot more black-male pictures of you so you better watch out!!

THE 4th OF JULY


This picture makes me laugh, Every year, my uncle and dads cars are in the parade. After the parade we have a family car rally. There were well over 20 cars to choose from and what did Bob choose? A ford truck.

I think I like Ben's choice a little better:)









This just might be tied with Christmas for my favorite holiday. Growing up there were 20 cousins on my moms side who were almost like siblings, 18 were all together.

Farr's hit 100 years!

My grandpa always said, "if you're healthy the sky is the limit, make your dreams reality!" 100 years ago today marks the day that Farr's ice cream was created by my great grandpa. Although my Grandpa passed away over 12 years ago, I know he would have loved to be at tonight's event. Farr's is now in the genus book of world record for scooping the most ice cream in 1 hour. Our goal was 5,000, we hit 6,300 the first hour. There were over 10,000 people there tonight. My hand is sore from scooping but it was an awesome night! Great work Bill and Kevin for keeping the family business strong.

Nicholas and my grandma who is 87 years old and you would never know it.

Isaac was suppose to be helping, later I found out he ate 3 ice cream cones instead. I guess that is what I get for not feeding them dinner before.

The video from the news is on the link below for family that lives away.

My Kindergarten graduate.


My pre-K graduate



Lately people have been asking how old my little girl is, I am always wanting to correct them and say, "Oh you mean my baby girl?" She is still our baby. In school last month, Isaac's teacher asked who had a baby at their house. Isaac raised his hand, I realized then I should quit calling her baby and move on to toddler. Oh it PAINS me.






I hope you enjoy the Sydney shrine!

The Greenbelt

Mindy, you did a great job capturing the order of Nicholas' proud moment.


Wanting to catch a baby duck.

SO close


Mission accomplished. He is still telling people about his accomplishment.

Sydney trying to do what big brother did.

You never know when someone is taking a picture of you.
