"summer, summer, summertime"





Here's some more pictures of our summertime fun.  We finally went swimming for the first time this summer while in Denver.  Surprisingly enough, Andrew was not a big fan of getting in the pool.  He preferred to hang out on the steps and just throw toys in.  Spencer flew home on Monday night and I stayed a couple more days in Denver to have fun with cousins and then braved the drive home by myself.  

We were pretty tired but couldn't pass up the ward campout the next day.  It was great and the kids slept awesome, even Mabel slept all the way through the night.  I have decided that you have to take way too much stuff camping to only stay one night.  Our car was more full for our overnight campout then our week long trip to Denver.

A denver 4th of July



The boys had fun in the neighborhood bike parade.



Thanks to the neighbors who bought some "illegals" in Wyoming, we were able to enjoy a great fireworks show at home.


Ryan's first try at sparklers.

Mabel loved watching the fireworks a little too much... when she stopped blinking for an extended period of time, we took her back in.

Mabel

Mabel is 4 months!  She is weighing it at 12 lb. 11 oz, 25 inches long.  
At 4 months she can:  look adorable in the dress I bought when I found out we were having a girl,
play in her exersaucer,
fly with daddy,
hold up her head very high,
and wiggle out of seats now if we don't strap her in.  what a big girl!
