July Phone Dump

In July we tried to finish crossing things off our summer bucket list!

Lydia had so much fun playing with her new little felt boards.

Henry, Lydia and Alex had a great time at Lego Club at the library.

We all painted a little bit of canvas art to decorate their rooms.  Everyone did a great job.  I even gave them sparkling cider to sip while they worked.

 Their final pieces!

 Lydia loves to wear everyone's shoes around and she likes to take my old purses.  She was walking around like this one day:

The kids all had a great time playing with my instagram filters.

 It rained in the desert!  We had to run out and enjoy it!

 We did our favorite experiment: diet coke and mentos.

James, Alex and Henry made some delicious ice cream!

We picked one morning to take a bike ride to GVG for donuts.  We left early... but not early enough because we were still sweating when we got there.

Henry, James, and Alex had a fun time at the library Star Wars event.

Rich was asked to help clean up Warm Springs so we tagged along and swam for a bit.

William gets some pretty crazy hair.  We joke with him that he's trying to look like Steve from Stranger Things.

We held our annual Lemonade Stand.  We have great neighbors and ward members who came to support the kids.

Lydia just looked super cute this particular day in her OU shirt and cowgirl boots.

Lydia really got into her baby dolls at the end of the summer.  I helped her swaddle them many times a day.

We even squeezed in a breakfast at IKEA.  You can't beat $1 breakfast.

Lydia was able to go into the play area at IKEA and this was James's last time.  That means that I only had William as a shopping buddy.  Henry got a coloring page there and was super proud of his coloring job.

Only a few weeks left of summer!
