Happy 4th

We had a busy day! We started off with the provo grand parade which the boys just loved!
It was a hot day so we ran through the sprinklers(hence the change in clothes)

this truck firework was the most popular one of the evening(according to the boys)

Auntie Heather joined us for the fun of the day

sparklers!!

And flags

Our newest obsession.....

The bike trailer, and when I say our obsession that is a true statement, the boys absolutely love this and I knew they would I just didn't want to pay a lot of money for one............and I didn't I found this one at a garage sale and gave a kid $10 for it - best deal ever. Its used but in great condition. Thats one of the great things I love about where we live is that there are tons of extra wide biking paths all over the place here, it makes it easy to get out and have some fun, we've been biking to new parks all over the place up here.

finally!

Holy cow! Finally! He has started to venture out and walk a little!!!! its about time, this was also the very first time that he has gotten up from the ground by himself. He cracks me up.

happily hitched

My milkshake brings all the girls to the yard........

We call Dacen's latest trick "the milkshake" You'll know when you see it!

2nd Place!!!

The derby went well as you can see we took 2nd place, which I was very surprised considering we are a little rough around the edges in the derby world. we had a fast little car! Dax loved every minute of it and we of course loved every second of watching him love it. As you can see Dace was overdue for a nap so he was petting his eyelashes during the race. The best part was winning the ribbon and trophy!

Pinewood Derby!!!

Mom is lucky enough to be in cub scouts and so it is that time of year that the pine wood derby happens! Dax is of course really excited that he gets to help the construction of a cool dude race car! Almost immediately he feverishly searched through all of his cars trying to decide which one we could make it look like "so it be the fastest one" The green ramone from the infamous cars movie (which we know nothing about in this house) won the competition. (He wasn't looking throught the bucket with lightening or the other race cars.) His heart was set! So we went to the store where he picked out the color of green he would like, came started carving(dads job) dax did some sanding though and alot of painting----and the rest is history. The race is schedule for Sat morning - wish us luck!!
