The month of July has just flown by! We've kept so busy, trying to enjoy the last little bit of summer before school starts again.
We went to a ward BBQ, they had face painting, which obviously the kids LOVED! They had a dunk tank & bouncy slide. And lots of yummy food. Ethan & Lexi had lots of fun trying to dunk people in the tank. Makelle loved the bouncy slide & Kyler loved running off.
We went camping. Normally we go 5 or 6 times during the summer, sometimes more. The weather has kept us from going that often. And I really didn't want to go being as far a long as I am. Jeff opted to take the older 3 & I stayed home with Kyler. Ya, that lasted 2 days. I went up the last night & enjoyed spending time with them. I missed them so much! Let's just say the TV was on WAY more than normal because I missed the noise, it was way too quiet while they were gone! They had fun in our trailer, making a fort,
catching fish
shooting guns. Ethan also brought his bow & arrow & had fun shooting birds.
And eating rabbit. My nephews shot a rabbit, they cooked it up & ate it one night. Everybody seemed to like it, luckily that was the night that I wasn't there...I'm not so sure I really want to try rabbit.
We had a fun playdate with my cousin Stephanie. She found a fun park & we met up there to let the kids play. As you can see it took Kyler a while to warm up to the place. He just stood there like this for the longest time. I couldn't figure out why he was being so weird, normally he loves parks!
This is the park we went to. There was so much for the kids to do, I really liked that there's a toddler area where I didn't have to worry about Kyler falling off of anything. The place is pretty big & I couldn't keep track of the older kids at all times. But they had fun!
They had some super fun swings. All the kids had a blast!
Ethan lost his first tooth!
And 2 days later he lost his 2nd tooth!School starts in 3 weeks! I'm not so sure I'm ready for that, especially with a new baby. It's going to be quite a challenge, but we'll make some good memories just trying to get through each day!

Let me know how I can help you when you have your baby!! Seriously, if you need anything I'm yours!!
I really enjoy camping but I can't imagine going that often...jsut because it is so much more work with 4 little kids to monitor...maybe when this last one gets a little less curious. I think a lot of things will be easier as they get older:)
We were actually talking about going to that park the other day. It is such a unique fun park, but I really don't like how I can't see where the kids are most of the time.
Good luck with the new baby...it is a pain to work school around a babies schedule, but it works.
so fun, that park in West Jordan is the BEST...but I only have one kido to take along with me. I can imagine it would be crazy to keep track of 4 :), also good on Jeff for going camping with the 3 kidos by himself! Super dad for sure. And I will just have to take whoevers word on the rabbit because I dont think I'll ever be trying that!
