Happy 4th of July!

We have had a jam-packed summer, as I'm sure everyone has! We spent 4th of July weekend at the Anderson cabin on the Wapsie and had tons of family fun! Then, the next weekend we went with the family to Holiday Lake and celebrated our 6th Anniversary. Zach also competed in an Olimpic length triathalon and did great! Josie had her first swimming lessons the following week, which was probably the coldest week of the summer-60 degrees! She did great, though, better than me-I had to get in with her! And she passed! Carly was 2 months old on the 16th and weighs over 11 pounds! She's a growing girl and is smiling and laughing all the time now! I'm becoming more sad day by day as I have to go back to work in about 2 weeks! This summer went by way, way too fast!!! I knew it would!

Grama LaVonne with her girls!

Isaac is showing his little cousin the ropes of fishing--she loves hanging out with him! It's so cute!


She is such a "poser" when it comes to pictures and we did not teach her this! It's scary!


We had to put the headband on Carly!

Zach loves to give her a "faux-hawk"-her hair naturally does this, poor thing


Our 6th anniversary at Holiday Lake


Josie caught her first fish! A blue-gill, but she refused to touch it!



Carly sleeps with her arms above her head all the time! We had to snap a pic of it!


Fishin with Papa Rick and her new "fishin rod"-that's what she calls it!


Carly and Jayda out on the beach under an umbrella-they even had the hiccups at the same time! They are so funny!


Zach transitioning to bike during his traithalon-Go Zach!


Josie's front-float while blowing bubbles!


And her back-float...


Her favorite-jumping in without you holding her hands. She HAD to do it by herself!


Putting her face in.


Mom and Josie--she cried the first day swimming lessons were over, I had to convince her that we were coming back tomorrow!


Carly at 2 months old!


What a happy baby!! She is so good!
