Dressed Up and Crazy


Making Grandma dress up, march around our house with instruments, jump on beds, jump off beds, and dance is so much fun! Thanks Grandma!

bathing

I don't remember swimming much in my clothes when I was younger, nor can I remember "bathing" in the pool for that matter. Probably because my mom realized that taking a "bath" in a saltwater pool would in fact require a real "bath" when finished. These 2 sillies think it is the best fun EVER to go swimming in clothes, or even naked too (that's a whole different story). AND thier new favorite is when we announce it's bathtime in the pool.
P.S. I promise that doesn't happen very often.

Virginia Getaway

Toward the end of July, me, my mom, my sister, and the kiddos hopped in my van for a Road Trip to VA! 16 hours later, we arrived at our destination...I still think I was kicking and screaming the whole way due to our unexpected amount of hours held hostage in the van with 2 kids. If 16 hours wasn't enough for one day...we then piled back into the van for another 8 and headed to New Jersey to see cousins and aunts and uncles! Only to pile back in the next day and head back to VA. Yes, that is a total of 36 hours in the car in just 3 days. However, we did have a blast and made some fabulous memories.

Riding the ski lift to our tubing ride.

Our first "Build a Bear" experience=success. Bryce is still sleeping with his frog that he named Nicholas Brandon???


Enjoying a day trip to the caverns.



Check out our wave rider at the indoor waterpark at our resort. I think Bryce was the only boy under the age of 15 that was brave enough to try this crazy ride.







Note for next time: Hailey is NOT a fan of hiking in the woods. And Bryce goes running for shelter if you even mentiont the word BEAR.


Funny lollies during one of our day trips in the car!
