Birds Eye View!

Grandma Robinson had connections and Brett, Haley and her good friend, Holly were able to take a short helicopter ride. Zach is at scout camp and will be so sad he missed this opportunity. Can you believe that Brayden didn't want to go? The girls loved it! Thanks for letting us in on the fun, grandma!

A quick trip

Made a super quick trip down to Salt Lake this past weekend. Got to use a gift certificate I had for Grand America and Rodizios. Since the expiration was approaching fast I snagged my mom, sis, and Haley for a little girls getaway. It was nice to get out of town for a couple of days and really do nothing but chill.

Me, mom and Laura at the This is the Place Monument. I have never been here so it was really interesting to me. Being so close to pioneer day, it was appropriate. I thought it was a great tribute to all the pioneers who sacrificed so much.

This picture got out of order, but its Haley and her cousin Anna around the campfire.

Me and Haley at the Park City Outlet Mall--what a great place! We scored some sweet deals!

Back to the camping trip. Nate loved to fish! What a cute boy!

Dad, Nate and cousin Kyler. It was so pretty there on the reservoir when the sun was setting.

4th of July

We had a great fourth of July! We were minus 2 kids because the boys went to Disneyland with my mom and dad. With just the 3 kids home for the week things seem to be so much easier! Less garbage, less laundry, less dishes, less fighting. . .we love those boys and miss them, but I have enjoyed a tiny break. An outing like going to the parade seems like a breeze with just the 3 kids.

Nate loved the parade. He kept chanting, "I want candy" to all the people going by.

Nate and Kacie waiting so patiently for the parade to start.

Every time Kacie got a piece of candy she ran back to Brett who was holding her loot bag. She was so exciting every time to get a piece that she didn't even notice the candy she was running right past still on the ground.

By this pose you would have thought that Kacie was part of the parade. She loves to put on a show!

My cutie pie!

I don't have any pictures but later in the afternoon we had a neighborhood bbq and fireworks. Most of the families in our subdivision came and we all had a great time eating, visiting, playing games and then finished the night with some awesome fireworks.
