After my sister Lisa left, we had more visitors! Aunt Shannon, Cousin Kali and Kenna came to visit us! The kids had fun playing on the trampoline!
Kenna loves to play the piano with Britt!

Uncle Dave shares an otter pop with Kenna!

Carter and Kali!

Best Buds!

We had such a fun time playing with the girls! They stayed the night and then Britt went home with them for the rest of the week before our cabin trip! We love those girls so much! It was fun having them come and play!

Creative Kids

The kids were playing outside all day one Friday! They kept coming in to get stuff. I asked what they were doing and they said they were having a "Stuffed Animal Tree". They filled the tree with all their animals! It was so cute! Then they made "fires" to keep the animals warm!
Britt said her Bear went fishing and caught a huge "fish"!

The kids played so good together the whole day! It amazes me what they come up with!

Ahh the joys of summer!

Spencer got his "Wolf"

Look at my Handsome little SCOUT! He worked so hard with his Dad and earned his WOLF! I love being the Mommy and getting pinned by my son! Its an amazing feeling! Spencer also got the beginning of his 100 Year patch! I am so thankful for the SCOUTING program!
After the awards the boys got to do this cool rocket water propelled thing! It was great to watch! The boys had a blast!

I am so lucky to have a loving husband that is a father to my boys, who is involved in the Scouting program.

We also went to "ECLIPSE" for a matinee and to Olive Garden for a delicious filling lunch!
