I love the 4th of July!! I love going to the parades. I love the BBQ's. I love the crazy slip'n'slide games at the Lymans. And of course I love watermelon!!

We took a trip to my home town Alamo Nevada to visit my childhood home and then on to Las Vegas to visit family.

The Annual Sherry and Mike Perkins family reunion was in July this year on Cedar Mountain. It was so much fun!! We had such yummy food and played games for hours. The kids had a great time with crafts and a pinata.

 

I took Maddey and Libby on a special trip to Lagoon. We swam and rode rides all day. Plus we got as much amusement park food as we could handle and I let them play some of the games. It was a perfect day!

We have season passes to Lagoon and go every Tuesday! It has been awesome!

Maddey's new name is Dr. Doolittle. She has this thing with animals. She's always finding some animal and bringing it home. One day she found both a snake and a cat (and some snails).

Our new Suburban!!! (Sitting on our new lot where we are building our new house!)

Ryder loves animals too... and balls, and swings, and anything outside. He is always full of mischief and adventure!
