Take me back to July! It was such a fun month. I love having the kids home from school and not having a schedule for a while. We stayed busy with swim team, swim meets (prelims & championships), and celebrating holidays.
Avery picked out these cute sunglasses and I couldn't help but say yes because we were twinning. I like your sense of style Avery!
We had a great July 4th! We started out playing basketball, ward breakfast & bike parade, neighborhood pool party, BBQ with friends, then fireworks to round out the night.
Ward bike parade
I have fun dressing up in red,white, and blue to celebrate independance day. We did have friends over for a bbq on July 1st to celebrate Canada Day too. I am grateful for these 2 wonderful countries I can call home.
The pool party is a hit every year. We ate Chick Fil A, had games & candy, and a coin dive - the kids scored this year! Jaxson found almost $7 and Avery $3.
A bit of downtime before our next activity - our amazing BBQ dinner.
Flag cookie & skor cake - yum!!
Heading into the gym one day - so cute! I love sights like this.
Beautiful sunrise on my morning run before a swim meet. I love the beautiful reminders that we have Heavenly Father who cares for us. Sights like this remind me of the scripture found in Alma 30:44 when Alma is sharing his testimony that all the amazing creations found on earth witness that we have a supreme creator. It is a testimony builder for me for sure.
Prelim's for swim team. Jaxson did great and made it in 2 events - 50 back and free.
Getting ready for free Chic fil a day.
Dress like a cow, get free food. It is a fun tradition we do each year.
Ryan was able to go on an amazing fishing trip with a few guys from church - that rainbow trout was huge! Almost as big as the smile on Ryan's face - what a cool experience.
Date night with our little buddy Griffin. Splash pad & cookies.
Last day of swimming - championships. Jaxson won the backstroke and tried his best in the freestyle. His medley relay also took first and his freestyle relay got second. Way to go Jaxson!
Awards banquet - good season Jaxson & Avery!
Couldn't help but throw this one in there - swim team photo backdrop.
We went to our first ever Rockies baseball game and lucked out to be in the shade. It was a fun family night!
Ryan took the kids to the nature & science museum for a behind the scenes look hosted by his company. The kids loved it!
Bug collection - I am sure Avery was in heaven.
Jaxson was suprised to see brains floating in jars.
DQ icecream on a hot day.
