Summer 2012


For the 4th of July we went to Melba to watch the fireworks.


We ran into Chris's sister's family and we hung out with them and sat together to watch  the fireworks.  Here's Katie with her cousins.
Daddies and the kids having fun with pop-its.
An awesome firework fountain.
Gotta love the fireworks!
In July my parents, grandparents, siblings, and their families all met up for a Birthday picnic celebration at one our favorite parks.
Here are the kids anticipating the water bucket tipping.
Whoosh!
A great family pic.  
Katie took this picture.  She's so creative.
We had a fun Pioneer Day celebration at the church.  We invited our good friends and neighbors who live across the street from us to come with us.  There were fun games, good food, and wagon rides.
Here's Katie launching a water balloon.

Chris and David helped out at the snow cone machine.
The kids had a blast playing in the sand.

Katie posing on the wagon ride.

Katie and one of her best friends, Kaylie.
The wagon ride took them around the school parking lot that is behind the church.  It was fun.
Katie likes to take pictures of odd things, like her feet, or close-ups of objects.  And we often find pictures like this on the camera with funny faces.  When I saw this I just couldn't stop laughing.  Too funny.


Here's Katie dancing with her dance class to Hawaiian music.  During the summer they have a different theme each week.

Aloha!
Katie took swimming lessons at the Rec Center, which she absolutely loved.
Katie and Daddy at Daddy's work party.

We love the swings!
August 16 was our 15th Anniversary.  Can't believe we've been married for 15 years already.  We celebrated by going miniature golfing with Katie, and Deedra and her kids.  Then Katie went home with Aunt Deedra and we went out to dinner at an Italian restaurant called Asiagos.  It was delicious.  Then we went to the Anniversary Inn.  
We had a wonderful Anniversary.

They had great paintings of jungle, underwater, and dinosaur life.
