We had such a fun weekend!!
We spent Friday and Saturday at Palisades Reservoir catching minnows, watching humming birds, boating, tubing, and spending time with Grandma Bonnie and Papa Moose.
Gavin likes to let them land on his hands. He is so still and so patient and would stand there all day and night if we let him.
Catching minnows
This year no one was afraid of the water.
They thought they would have better luck catching the minnows if they were actually IN the water. They were having fun so I just let them do there thing
Cody- "My head looks freaking huge"
Teri- "Your head IS freaking huge!"
We were taking the boat to the gas truck and Cody sprayed Bonnie. I'm pretty sure she wasn't expecting that from him.
Chloe and I are on the far left. She's on my lap and she HATED the entire ride.
She cried and screamed and by the time we got back to the dock she had exhausted herself. She went down below the deck and fell asleep on the bed.
Mason refused to even get on the tube. Gavin got on with the bigger kids and loved it.

Just keep swinging,
swinging,
swinging!
The kids had a visitor at their table during dinner. They were giggling at it's shadow.

If you stand really still next to the feeders the hummingbirds will come up right too you to drink 
Gavin loves to have the hummingbirds land on his hands to eat. He is so still and so patient. He would stand there all day and night if we let him.
It's pretty much a sin in our family to go through Swan Valley without stopping for a square ice cream cone.
Saturday night we went to Oliver and Liz's for the Annual Fireworks show. It was so good to see everyone again and catch up.
Watching fireworks
On Sunday after church we all went to Kaylee's for a family BBQ. The kids played in the pools while the adults watched and talked.
Gavin was smashing Pop-it's on his forehead and it was leaving marks. He also is in a phase where he won't take a picture without pulling a funny face.
Launching fireworks underwater. Such a great example to all the little kids of what NOT to do! Soon after this the male "adults" moved on to blowing up cheeseburgers with M-80's
Even though it was almost 9 pm this little critter was still in the pool almost 4 hours later. We barely got her out long enough to eat.
Sparklers!!
The Fry clan
Monday, July 4th
The kids in their most patriotic clothing!
We all met at Sadie's before the Idaho Falls parade and had a waffle breakfast and then went to the parade with the Fry family and then headed to my sister's house for her annual 4th of July shindig
The adults played volleyball until we all decided we needed a break
Isn't she the cutest?!?!

We all stayed at Karen's until dark and lit all of our fireworks off.
P.S. Some of these pictures are stolen from my sister, but I told her about it, so I guess that just makes them copied now, right?
