Summer Activities....

I have random pictures of the past few weeks so here they are:
We took Abby to the zoo on July 3, 2009. It was a great time, busy but great. We took her on the Merry-Go-Round and the train for the first time. She loved it, until she had to get off. The Richey 4th of July Breakfast. Yes, we were patriotic that day. Abby had a great time on the swings and the slides. She even got up the courage to go on the twisty tunnel slide. My dad and Nathan were good enough to watch her most of the time. The breakfast was great as usual, and so was the company. A big thanks to my aunts and uncles, who always throw a GREAT party!
Later that night, we had Ned's family over for a BBQ and fireworks. It was fun to relax and eat some more good food. We missed Suzie and Rick's families - we'll catch ya next year guys.
Abby and Ned have been having a great time together this summer.
Abby following Ned with her play lawn mower.
Abby and Ned running through the sprinklers. She was too sacred to go alone, so Ned jumped in with all his clothes on - even his socks!Abby coloring in Ned's office. She loves to stand and color and the dry erase board.
The trip to Logan with Erin and all of our kids. We were able to cram all three car seats in the back of Erin's Nissan Altima! The kids had fun riding all together. Thanks Erin!
Neighborhood gathering on Tyler Ave. This always takes place on the Sunday of the Weber State fireworks. It has kindly been named, "The Front Yard of Fire." We eat and then watch the fireworks from the "Cheap seats" in our front yard. No traffic, no crowds, and a bathroom that is NOT a port-a-potty. Best idea EVER!!!!
Abby at Grandma and Grandpa's House. Abby fell asleep in the swing while my dad was pushing her so he went to move her to the house and she woke up. He got her as far as the trampoline. He convinced her to lie down and close her eyes. She was reluctant, but then he just softly bounced her to sleep. She slept there for a while. Funny!
My brother Scott went to the Rodeo. I just thought it was a great outfit!
Summer has been great so far! More to come!
