4th of july...and yes i know it is September

As you can see keeping up with my blogging is obviously something way to hard for me to handle, so as a result you are getting a taste of summer in September



We had a crazy and event filled 4th of July this year. Family came up from California and we had a family event bonanza. We went to the Kaysville Parade...a must!



Here we are enjoying the parade and some fun family time.



Here are all of the "Bull Girls". Can you tell "one of these things is not like the other?" Everyone is the exact same size...and oh wait there is Shaundee's head a full foot above everyone else. Sorry babe...you married a giant!



All of the grandchildren (except Amanda who was in the parade) in their cute shirts from grandma and grandpa.



Family pool time. Everyone swam until they were exhausted. I think my kids could live in the water and be happy.

So there is our very late, but nonetheless fun and enjoyable post about the day our country was born. At least I finally got it documented...hooray!

independence day

Happy 4th of July!! Popsicles all around. Lyza and Braden enjoyed their share of the traditional 4th of July "holiday treat." I love this picture...pure enjoyment of children!

We had a family BBQ at my parents and then did some fireworks. All of the children (and Shalice) were banished to the yard to eat their messy treats!

We had a ton of the "poppers" for the kids to play with.

And a terrific fireworks show thanks to Brandon and Steven.

Nothing like watching fireworks on a blanket. So much fun.

Braden has a front row seat...love you buddy!

Lyza was in heaven. She didn't ever want the fireworks to end.

Holidays are always so much fun. They are a lot of work and by the end of the day everyone is exhausted, but there is nothing like a holiday. Great memories for all.
