Collin is taking T-ball this month every Tuesday and Thursday and he is so excited! None of the kids really know much about what they are doing so it's funny to watch. Collin did get beaned by the ball once when he wasn't paying attention in the outfield but how long can a 3 year old pay attention anyways? He wasn't really interested in being there after that, the poor guy. He has another game tonight so hopefully he'll be able to have fun!

More 4th of July fun!





























Collin and Carlee had alot of fun on the slip 'n slide at thier cousin Kaitlyn's house. Carlee is a water baby for sure. Just put her near water and she is in heaven! When she takes a bath she loves to dunk her head under the water or stick her face under the running faucet. Such the opposite of Collin who hates water in his face and ears.






They both loved the fireworks that night. Collin was calling out what a few of the fireworks looked like. My favorite was when he said one looked like a paperclip. I didn't know he even knew what a paperclip was! When I asked him if he liked the fireworks he said, "Yeah, my favorite was the fires and the fireworks!" It's such a dry season that the hill caught on fire in several places.






This was little Carlee's first firework show and she loved it. She was a little scared at first but she loved them. I'm glad whe was able to stay awake. After the show in Arco we went back to Kaitlyn's house and watched her dad do his own firework show. Collin had his first sparkler and when it got closer to his hand he would say, "I don't want to hold this anymore!". Then immediately he wanted another one.






I hope your 4th of July was fun, too!
































































































































4th of July Parade




Collin absolutely loves parades as evident by his big cheesy grin. He didn't really pay any attention to what was actually in the parade because he was too busy looking at the ground for more sweet suprises to add to his bag!



Carlee paid a little bit more attention to what was rolling by and she had fun picking a few pieces of candy up too. Her favorite was the horses!

Collin & Carlee say hi!



Collin and Carlee say hello from the Rose Garden in Boise. My brother-law-recently got married there, hence the cute outfits. Collin said he "looked handsome" and Carlee had fun smelling the flowers.

Collin will be turning 4 next month and Carlee is almost 21 months old. Time seems to be passing too quickly for me. I can't imagine Collin being in school! We took him to pre-school screening but luckily for me they said he was too smart for pre-school. I can keep him my baby for a little while longer.

Carlee is now attempting to walk. I really need to get her on video walking to her brother's open arms. It is so sweet! I really have to treasure the moments that they get along. They are both VERY independent and stubborn. Can't take after me, must be thier daddy.

I'm going to try and keep this updated to let everyone who doesn't get to see these sweeties all the time share in our joy.

Love you all!
