Our Summer (Yup, I'm that behind on blogging)

I know I am behind on blogging, so bear with me with all the pictures in one post. I'll try to be brief. We had a great summer filled with lots of relaxing in Idaho and LOTS of working on the house back here in Colorado.


My fabulous sister-in-law got married this summer. It was such a wonderful week we spent there helping them get ready and seeing them get married was definitely a highlight of this year. WE LOVE BRAD. I have been so lucky to have amazing in-laws and he is no exception.

Mia and Mason got to help serve refreshments at the reception.  I was very proud of them and what big helpers they were.  Don't they look cute in there brown and pink to match Sara's colors.

This is our friend Michelle.  She is like another aunt to my kids and we love her so much.  She got married this summer too, and we wish we could have been there. 

Mia and Mason on the Ireland Bank float in the 4th of July parade in Malad.  They had fun throwing taffy and eating it too.

Brant's summer was filled with a lot of things that he loved.  1st place goes to Grandpa, but a close 2nd was the chickens. 

We had tons of fun with cousins.  Birthdays, parks, picnics, sprinklers, zoo, and swimming.....what a great summer.

We we glad to get together with Stacey and her kids for a fun afternoon.  We only wish more Denver friends could have come.  (Next years guys.)

Mia and Mason did great with swimming lessons this year.  Mia passed again and Mason can put his whole head in the water and even dog paddle a little, so big accomplishments on both counts.

It wouldn't be summer without grandma's haircuts.

Have I mentioned how much my kids love to gather the eggs and take care of the chickens.

We also went to Island Park with Jared's family for a quick fun weekend of canoeing, 4-wheeling, biking, and just hanging out.  We have such great families that we look forward to our summers in Idaho all year long.
