Pictures of our 4th of July Celebration (The Lake)

I think Noah is saying "What do you want Addie? Haven't I told you enough I want to play on my own!" Addie is always trying to get Noah to go along with her and sometimes he does, but sometimes he doen not! They are really cute together!

Since this was Noah's first time at the lake this year, we took more pictures of him than anyone else. He was also the only one who would hold still long enough to take a photo!

Noahhad a hard time wearing the life jacket, but decided to endure it in order to have fun in the water! He was so fun to watch!

What a cute kid! Noah loved the lake and playing in the sand. What a pose--he is just like his Daddy! He is really growing up and is able to play on his own without drowning--what a milestone in our lives.

This was Bella's first trip out in her adorable swimming suit! It is pretty fun having a girl to get all dolled up!

Bubba and Breann were the lucky ones who got to ride behind the boat until it broke down! We were unable to get it going again and so the kids ended up enjoying swimming! It worked out great!

Here is Ethan suited up and ready to swim! Ethan always poses like this for the camers and we are really trying to work on a more natural picture smile--it is not working too well!

Bella and Lyla got to hang out together at the lake. You can tell that they were both thrilled to be sharing the crib space with another baby just there size! It didn't last long with trying to get them to share toys, food, and the crib!

4th of July

Here are the children loaded up in the car for the 4th of July Celebration. We were able to spend the holiday with the Bone family as well as Grammy and Pappy Reid! The festivities began on Thursday July 3rd with a trip to the lake, a sleep over that night, a great time at the Rexburg Parade, movie and shopping, concluding at the Idaho Falls Fireworks Spectacular! The boys loved every minute of it and so did Bubba and I. Bella wasn't too vocal about her feelings, but seemed to be very well behaved. Here are a few pictures of our events--hope you enjoy!

Lyla Bone's Birthday Trip to Mesa Falls

We celebrated Lyla Bone's Birthday by driving to Mesa Falls. With worrying about my kids diving into the falls (if you know my kids you know that could happen!), trying to get good photos, and a little warm weather all in all it was a great time.

Noah loved the water fountain more than the water falls!

This is the seductive side of Noah!

If you are wondering why Bubba is not in any of these photos, he hates being in pictures so uses the excuse "Well somebodies got to take the picture!" I give him a hard time about it!

Noah and Addie are only about a year apart--can you believe the size difference?

They are quite cute together and have a lot of fun!

Talk about like mother like son! I promise the trip really was fun dispite our faces!

This is Ethan and Jack keeping eachother on the path.

Actually, it is Jack being the look out over Ethan to keep him safe.

The Mow and Bone Family Boat Trip

We love having the Bone's to take us boating! It is always a great time and a whole lot of fun. On this trip we left Noah and Bella at home, letting Ethan enjoy his own time with Mom and Dad. He loved riding in the tube with his favorite cousin Jack. It is so nice to have family close to spend time with and create such fun memories. THANK YOU BONE FAMILY! After boating, we took Ethan to his favorite place to eat--Johnny Carinos for some noodles with butter and cheese! What a great day!

Ethan's Soccer Game

Here are a few pictures of Ethan's latest soccer game! As you can see there are moments of agressiveness, lots of sweat, fast running, and then in the end the collapse in the middle of the field since he did not score a goal. I guess you can't expect too much from this age right? He is pretty funny to watch! We are very proud of him and hope he begins to understand Teamwork a little better throughout life!
