Happy Thanksgiving

Backpacking in the Uintas with the Stringhams!!

Celebrating 4th of July

She is finally riding her bike! Tess got this bike for Christmas but has always refused to ride it! When she saw all the kids decorating their bikes she decided to do the same and just jumped on her bike and started riding. I was so excited!!!! Unfortunately my excitement was short lived when I earned my mother- of-the-year award when she started flying down the street and totally crashed!!! I don't know how we didn't end up in the ER after this crash but luckily she only had some scratches and bruises. It was bad!

Mia had a meltdown because she couldn't keep up with the big kids in the parade. It sorta seemed to turn into a race.

The little ones stayed on Nanny's lap the entire time we watched fireworks! Especially Tess, she was not a fan!

{ BEST FRIENDS ;) }

We can have happy smiling faces and with out any warning things can take a sudden turn and someone is in tears! They were so tired at this point!

Kendalyn also dressed her American girls "Kit" and "Laney" in 4th of July attire so of course we had to get a pic.
