July 2017-Part 1

The summer is so busy for our family! Both of the kids have birthdays during the summer, we celebrate 4th of July and we do family trips! So I decided to do a few posts about the month of July.

First we celebrated the kids' birthdays by doing another combined birthday party at the pool this year. We just went with a pool party theme and it was a blast! The kids invited their cousins and then they each invited 3 friends. It was so much fun!

We got to spend some time with Grandma and Skyler after the party for a few days. We learned how to play Monopoly Jr. and the kids loved it!

Then we celebrated 4th of July with Nona, Papa Ray, and Aunt Sissy. The kids had so much fun going out on the boat, playing on the beach and doing fireworks.

We really do have so much to be thankful for. I am so blessed to have a family that loves my kids so much! They are spoiled rotten and surrounded by such amazing friends and family!!!

We spent A LOT of time at the pool during the summer and it was so great! This is definitely our happy place!!!

Gracie June loves helping to take Cooper for walks.

Caycen had his baseball end of the season party.

Pool, Pool, Pool

Baby Ray lovin'

Mommy lovin'

We celebrated Caycen's 6th birthday. You can see the video of his birthday here.

We started out with balloons in his room (we were getting ready to move, which is why he has no furniture in his room! LOL!)

He got to pop the balloons and find money ($6 total).

We had donuts for breakfast (our birthday tradition)

We went to the water park at Jekyll with Ella Kate and Palmer

Caycen lost his first tooth at the water park on his birthday! It wasn't even loose! He was chewing on his bathing suit string (geeze) and it got caught between his teeth and when he tried to pull the string out it popped his tooth loose! After about 30 minutes (maybe longer) of crying, I finally pulled the tooth out! He was devestated!!!!

But we got dippin' dots and it was all bettter

We went to Dairy Queen for dinner (his choice)

Caycen got the game Pie Face Showdown for his birthday and it's hilarious! You can watch the video of them playing the game here.

The kids helped me paint our furniture

Gracie June became my new workout partner!

Gracie June decided to draw all over our walls in the rental for the 2nd time since we lived there!

My best friend!

Date night for our 9th anniversary! We went to The Vault and it was delicious!!!

After dinner we went to LuLu's Chocolate bar for dessert

We played the game "Eat it or Wear it" that we'd seen on Youtube and it was not so much fun for them! I however had a blast!!!!! You can watch them playing it here.
