Rewind

Is July really over? Truly? It was so fun. I felt busy. But, it was a good kind of busy. The kind of busy out having fun. July is so Grand, for many reasons:

Reason #1- Growing.

Lizzy is getting bigger, older, and a little braver.

Reason #2- Facepainting.

Reason #3- "Fire WERKS" in the Mountains.
("That go BOOM BOOM then CHHHHHHHH, like that") Max


Reason #4-Children's Bike Parades.
(FOR FREEEEEEE)


Reason 5- Swimsuits.

Reason #6- Family Bonding.
(anything will unite a family if it involves swimming suits and a cooler)

Reason 7- The 4th Of July Festivities.

Reason 8- SHOPPING & COORDINATING.

Shopping for the perfect summer outfit.

Shopping At The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale.

Shopping on Vacation.

Ahhhhhhh, retail therapy!

This is the Life!

I {HEART} July, and here's Why:

A) I'm still Queen on The Slide!

B) Our Kids are Happiest in the Pool

C) Educational Opportunities

ex: How to Build a Dam

D) The Enjoyment of some well deserved time off

E) Bonding time with my brothers, sister & sister-in-laws

and playing with our baby nephews!

F) Watching the parade, a 30+ year tradition

I look forward to this time every year and am never disappointed!
