Fourth of July and camping

The fourth of July was great this year, only because we were able to actually enjoy the festivities this year (last year we were all puking our guts out).  We went to the parade in the morning and then a bbq and fireworks that night, but I only got pictures of the parade.
I was worried if Rafe would want to sit still during the parade and he did!  There was so much to see that he was really into it.


Trying to see what's coming next.

So excited!

Loved waving his flag and of course the candy!
We also had my family reunion with the extended family on my mom's side, but sadly I took a total of three pictures.  Camping with an 18 month old meant following him around the whole time.  But it was fun and the boys did great and had such a blast.

Last weekend we went camping again with my parents and my oldest brother and his family in Spencer.  It was so much fun!  I think if Bekam had his way we would be camping every weekend.
Jaxon and Bekam played star wars and super heros pretty much the entire time.  If they weren't doing that they were playing in their fort they made.


Rafe like to put dirt in the cup holders on all of the chairs :0)

Bekam playing a game with Savanna on her Kindle, and Dave decided to sneak in too.



Air Show, Park City

We have been squeezing in a few fun activities while the weather is nice.  We went to the Rexburg Air Show.



We also went to Park City with Dan's family and had such a good time.
We went and saw the Heber Creeper, the kids loved it.  Especially Rafe, he has a small obsession with trains.


Seriously Rafe's favorite person in the whole world.


Waiting for the train.

Such goof balls!
We also went to the outlet malls while we were in Park City.  The boys were really good while mom and dad shopped, so we let them ride a few of the rides.


I think "IT" riding behind Rafe was a little to creepy for him.
Dan and Bekam rode the... I want to say Alpine slide, but I know that's not it, but it was that kind of a slide.




Rafe and I rode the Merry-go-round while we waited for Bekam and Dad on the slide.

June and July

Rafe being so brave going down the slide by himself, he loved it!
Litte monkey man

Best Buds

These to Love to dance, and Bekam loves playing Just Dance on the wii, he is actually really good.

Our summer project this year was putting in a fence.  I should say Dan's summer project :0), I had two rascals to watch while he did the hard labor.



Such a big helper


Rafe and Khloe wanting to be big helpers with the fence, but it was freezing that day.

Bekam finished up Tball

I swear it is just water in it!

Trying to stay cool in this great hot weather.

Seriously funniest thing ever.  I was doing something in the kitchen and Rafe starts saying, "mama" and I turn around and this is what I see.


I don't know how he gets himself in these weird positions at night.

Someone thinks they are pretty tricky now because they can get up here now all by themself.

Seriously why does furniture have to substitute for a jungle gym, good thing nothing is new.
