Sparklers

Saturday night we had just the younger ones home so we brought out the sparklers and off they went. They had a blast.

Fourth of July

Saturday we got up to make the parade. Ryker was suppose to be in the parade but we didn't make it over to get his instrument in time. But we did catch this......

Zelda and Zippo

They are for hire.

We love to give my mom a hard time and she makes it so easy. Most of her moments just have to happen in front of either Kendra or Zak who can make it so much more entertaining. My mom hopped out of the buggy to shoot Kendra and her girls with a sqirt gun..... Let me just say it helps to have the gun pointing in the right direction. That is all I am saying.

Miss Em' s little dance group performed. They are so cute.

Later we went up to my mom's for a BBQ and visited before the Moore's headed home. Shelby challenged me to a splits contest and I STILL HAVE IT. I beat them all. Oh yeah.

Real Soccer Game

Chris took the boys up north to a Real Soccer game. They were in heaven. We had an extra ticket and invited Rocky along.

The Winner

Congrats Bonnie. You win. I will mail this out to you this week.

What another Giveaway.

I found this pattern online and thought they would be fun to make. They turned out cute and they are super simple to make. Since Em can only have so many Strawberry bags some lucky person gets one.




Drawing ends Monday.

Apricot Jam

This morning I decided I better get working on Jam. I made 2 batches and got 7 pints and called it good. It barely made a dent in the box but Chris is the only one that eats the jam and I hated to use all my sugar. 7 will be good. Can you see those red beauties by the jars???? Pulled those off my tomato plants yesterday. We have a ton of tomatoes. I am so excited. Guess the garden is going to have to stay in the planters.

Sleep Over

Emerson had her first official sleepover at our house last night. We sent an invitation to her friend including PJ's that matched Em's PJ's. Em and I made matching bears so they could have a cuddly friend to sleep with. Cute little girls with their cute little bears.
