4th of July in Idaho

So for the 4th of July we headed to Idaho. Most of Brandon's siblings were going to be there so we figured it would be fun to go and hang out for a few days. It was a fun trip filled with playing games and going boating, swimming, enjoying fireworks and just enjoying each others company! The kids played really well together and had so much fun. Which made it easier for us adults to play more games. We shared a lot of laughs and ate too much and just had an all around great time! Enjoy the pictures! 
Eating cotton candy on our road trip! Oh ya that is how we do it! :-) 


Our sweet boys asleep in the car giving Brandon and I much needed time to talk about possible job opportunities! 

I gave Wyatt a fruit squeezer thing and he squeezed it all over himself!! It was such a mess!!


But he was happy and I guess that is all that matters! ;-) haha





Totally belongs to this family! haha


Ethan kept whining that his neck was hurting and he wanted his pillow. I kept telling him that it would not work but he managed to like sitting like this! haha 



After our long trip the boys were super done with sitting in the car. Brandon and I waited to eat dinner until we got into Odgen so we could get IN N OUT. So we didnt end up eating until 10:30 but it was so worth it! haha 
I didnt get any pictures of us boating sadly but I got some of us enjoying the fireworks and swimming at the Apple (the gym they go to).


Eating dinner before the fireworks!

All comfy cozy waiting for the fireworks to start!


Lovely photo bomb by Grandpa Murri! haha

The kids had a blast running around playing on the grass while we waited.





LOVE this picture! 

So much fun! 














It was fun watching the fireworks and Wyatt enjoyed them. Probably more than Ethan did because all Ethan wanted the whole time was his monkey blanket even though we had blankets with us. It is hard on the kids staying up past bed time sometimes! 

Swimming:
















I attempted to take a picture of everyone in the pool and include myself in it but it didnt work out really well and all I got was myself! haha I tried!! 


I love my family!!


Silly couple! 

The kids also had a blast also swimming in their own pool at grandma and grandpa's house!!







It was fun watching the kids play together! 

Such a silly little boy! 



I sure do Love my little family and we absolutely love visiting family!! There is nothing better than being a mother to my wonderful boys, being married to my amazing husband and having the great families that we have! I am truly blessed!!

Centerra Kids days

So at one of our malls in Loveland they put on a kids days thing during the summer. They are every other Tuesday during the summer and have different themes. It is all free and the kids can do crafts and play games and ride a train. So we went for the 4th of July one. The kids had fun, especially since there was also free cotton candy! 



I think this was Wyatts first time with Cotton Candy. He was not too sure about it at first! haha

They LOVED the bean bag toss game! 


They won these masks! So Awesome! 











We played the bean bag toss game probably 4 times! haha 


After some papers flew off of a table Wyatt went over and picked them up and put them back on the table! Such a good boy! 


The boys looking at the water while waiting in line for a balloon animal! 





Finally after waiting for like 40 minutes we go our balloon animals and could go off and do something else. 
We found this little dress up and take a picture area. Wyatt looks so cute dressed up as Captain America! Ethan did not care to dress up and take a picture! 


So stinking cute!! 
I was really hoping to get Ethan to dress up and stand by his brother for a picture but he never did! Oh well! At least I have these priceless gems to look back on! :-) 
Then before we left we had to go grab some more cotton candy for the road to take back for Daddy since daddy loves cotton candy! :-) 
It was a fun afternoon! 

June 23-30

Just some more pictures of what has been going on in our life! 




The boys like to get in our little pool before I can get them into their swim suits. So a lot of the time this is what they look like. Soaked to the bone in fully clothed! haha Well I guess except for Ethan who at least took off his shorts! haha Silly kids! Oh well saves me from having to sun screen their whole bodies! :-) 



We had a pretty good storm one night and this was what I saw in Fort Collins. What looks like snow is actually TONS of hail!! So random to have that much hail in the summer time! 


Spending time at the park while Dadddy was at an Interview! I sure love these Handsome boys, and I love how much they love each other! Best Buds! 



Wyatt having fun filling up the pool. 

This is how Wyatt eats his donuts..


And man was he happy to be eating them! haha 

We also built a pergola in our backyard!





A lot of work but because I am married to such a handy man we were able to get it done in 1 day.

My poor sickly Wyatt 

Ethan being his goofy self. 

Wyatt still not feeling good and wanting his blanket around him while he walked around. 


He looked so funny with his blanket wrapped around him. 


Yay back to our happy boy. He sure does love those fudge bars! haha 


What a mess!! The one nice thing about being little. You can walk around in nothing but your diaper and get as messy as possible. Haha 
Silly kids! Life is so much better and way more exciting being a parent! :-)
