Fireworks and Celebrations

This year we went to 3 firework shows. Usu, Lewiston and Pocatello (which were by far the best). Dayton also had their annual parade. Becki and a excited Hogan getting ready for the parade

Halle and one of her fav uncles, Erik she is pulling off his glasses (or asses as Halle calls them).

Gathering the candy, want some?




Cousin Owen riding in the parade



City councilman Grandpa, all out of candy.






Ok, so we have a new baby in the family. Berkley! I am such a tard and when we blessed her on sunday and had everyone up for dinner I totally and stupidly spaced getting a picture of her alone. I will try and fix that the next get together. We did get a fun picture of all the grandkids minus two, I will also fix that the next get together.





Fireworks in pocatello! Gracie is not excited about the sparkler and Gid is cowering in the trees in the back ground. Such brave kids we have!







Waiting for the big fireworks to start with Grandma and Grandpa.









For the Lewiston fireworks we rode the rzr up to the WS and watched the fireworks. It was a fun weekend but we are glad to get the kids some much needed rest!








Fun in the Sun

Gid playing with his Grandpa!
I swear if she grows up to be a WS cheerleader........Grace loves dressing up!

This is Hal's idea of weeding the garden.




We found this cute playground to eat at before the USU fireworks and talked Grandma into going down the slide, what a sport! She is after all in her 80's.

Gracie playing on the rope swing.




Halle pushing cousin Chloe in the swing.






Flying kites!







"I shoot you mom".






Gid loading gravel from the skid loader to the dump truck.







Grandma's shed........DONE!!!!!!!

We have had a big project of tearing down an old chicken coup and building a shed for grandma. It has been a while getting done but it is and we are so excited. Grandma is glad to have freezers out of her garage and being able to park her car in there! Gracie being the "little mother" and watching the tractor.
Halle and Dad

Bop and Dad, driving the mini excavator that Brians was so excited about renting.




Hogan and Brian

All done loading her up




5K....Just not me!

Yup, I wimped out on the 5K run. Two days of running 2 miles just did not cut it for me. However my handsome husband did run it! He did awesome with a time of 28 min and 33 seconds. Finishing up the last of the 3.1 miles on the track.
Chad and Tricia ran it with him. I love this picture of Chad hanging on to Tricia to hold her back. Ha Ha! Tricia and Chad finished with a awesome time of 35 minutes and 54 seconds. Tricia beat her best time by over two minutes!

The three of them after they finished. You guys are awesome!
