Camping

Our family camp trip turned out nice!  The girls Brent and I got the flat bottom boat out and fished and rowed and rowed and rowed.  We didn't catch anything but we had fun out on the water.  We also had a blast with the girls we had a nice camp fire and played charades they were so fun to watch.  We just had a great time together!

I love the dog in the background of this! :)

Matt, Holly, baby Liam, and Pop came up to see us at camp.  We enjoyed a nice lunch and then we cleaned up to head down to the lake and fish.  The minute we cleaned up it started raining very hard and then we were going to try and wait it out but then is started hailing hard.  This is the third time this summer it's hailed and all three times we were trying to go fishing.  That was a bummer.  The first time it hailed when we were out fishing all the girls had caught one but Cloe so dad stayed out with her for awhile and then it started lightning and thunder and hail, and they headed back without a fish.  But she made up for it in Texas. 

We then headed down to buffalo and went to the park and ate dinner to hang out with them more!  Buffalo had this really awesome park and the biggest pool I'd ever seen and it was free!  We'll have to go back!  It was so great to meet baby Liam, and Brent got to meet Matt it was a great camping/buffalo experience!

A day out with my girls!

We went to the fair in Powell.  We went over there for eye doctor appointments and the fair was barely starting so we got to see animals and walk around it was really fun to spend the day with my girls.  I love how brave they were with the snake!  Great day!

Random summer pics

Brent's new calling as ward mission leader means we get to have a lot more fun with the elders!

Cloe had a blast in summer school this year.  This is her and her friend Caroline on the bus ride home after a field trip.  They had one every Friday, how fun! Museums, fossil hunts, and Pepsi plant and the airport!  Dakota and Paige got to do swim lessons.  They are both just little fish.  Paige swam without any help. :) yeah!

Officer Armstrong always has fun with my girls when they're around and they love his dogs.  His drug dog Santana and his two Saint Bernards too.  He's sporting Dakota's hat in this picture.

We have started having the girls pick up dog poop whenever they give us the "poopy lip" Paige has been doing it quite a bit! :) at least she is doing it in style!

Paige also took a Little Scientist class and made this flour puff paint picture.  And they did egg projects.  They dropped the bag with an egg in it and stuffed it with feathers and stuff to see if it would still break and it did! :) it was fun though!

Dakota got to go to the fair with a friend and they got her a cool hat, she loved it!  

Cloe is spending the week with Grandma Nessi and Dakota and Paige are staying with Grandma and Grandpa Casey.  I'm at home packing hoping to get ready to move to our first house.  More on that later.

Forth of July

We had a great forth of July!  Grandma and Grandpa Casey came for a visit!  I love the flag she made, it made a very festive day!

We went to the parade in Cody.  Brent worked grandpa painted and grandma and the girls and I went to the parade.  We had a blast and ate at the Irma for lunch and I saw a lot of people.

We had a BBQ with ribs...yum!  And we had the Terry's over too.  The kids including adult kids ;) played with poppers and small fireworks.  

Then we went out and shot off big fireworks and sparklers!  We ha a blast!  Paige was really afraid at first but she was then running around back and forth when the boys were lighting the fireworks with all the other kids.
