our summer so far...




Davis loves his new pink toothbrush, and I love his long hair! I know he needs a haircut, but I just can't bring myself to cut off those curls quite yet.



We've been playing outside a lot and loving it. I think Grant turns on the hose at least 8 times a day. And we're loving the sprinkler more than ever this year. This is Grant and his little girlfriend Jaylee that lives next door. He really is obsessed with her. He asks to play with her first thing when he wakes up every morning!


Jaylee really wanted to wear her goggles when she came over to run through the sprinlker with Grant. So of course Grant had to put his goggles on too. They were so funny! 




 We got to take the boat out for the first time a couple of weekends ago. I hope we get in a couple more boating days this summer!




We've been to Bridal Veil Falls a couple of times. It's always fun to take the little walk up there and let the kids throw rocks in the water. Grant could throw rocks all day. 


My friend Laura and I did the Little Red Riding Hood bike ride up in Cache Valley a couple of weeks ago. It was my first real, official ride and we did 80 miles. The course was beautiful and was lots of fun. I'm signed up for my first century ride in September so it was a good precursor!



The boys love playing in the tree house and looking over into the neighbor's yard. They have two dogs and Davis gets so so so excited to see them over the fence. He practically hyperventilates every time he catches a glimpse of them!


Grant has really taken a liking to the big brother role. He loves playing with his brother! Even though he can make him cry 20 times a day, he can make him laugh more than anyone else.






Grant is practicing his pumping!


How do you like our new beach? This summer they opened a new man-made lake like 3 minutes from our house. They brought in a bunch of sand so it's not muddy and there aren't any plants! We go here at least a couple of times a week. We were there earlier today!






More sprinkler time with the cousins.






Davis and his cousin Pierce. Buddies.

You are seriously living my dream. Cousins close by. Sprinklers, boating, best friend living next door, man-made lake!! Seriously, it's the good life over there. Your boys are so so cute. Don't ever cut Davis' hair.
