4th of July

Happy Girls!

We went to an old high school friends parents house who I haven't seen in years! It was great to see him and all of his family. His parents live on Wiser lake and the kids really loved their boats!

We then headed out to Birch Bay for our traditional Fourth of July! I do have to say it is small town America that really knows how to celebrate America...by buying up all the fireworks on the reservation and spending hours blowing all of it up!



Been celebrating the 4th with most of these people since we were all little kids...and the tradition continues!


Sarah was nice enough to go for my mile walk with me today (Day 184)


Sparklers!









As always it was a terrific Fourth...

Monday

The twinks started soccer camp today.. 
They said liked it but Courtney said she got hurt a lot. Tomorrow should be interesting since it's suppose to be 91*!

After camp we went out to the pool at Birch bay for a swim! 

We also switched chores today for the week and Courtney is in charge of the kitchen like loading/unloading and washing the stuff that doesn't go in the dishwasher... She did a pretty good job but I made her wash a few things over. Plus showed her properly how it needs to be washed ie. the food needs to come off the pot. She looks up at me with a smile as she's scrubbing away and says "it's gonna be a long week!" 

Fun day - Tuesday June 24 2014



Samantha HS volleyball camp in Ferndale this week so the twinks and I have been exploring. Yesterday we went to Pioneer Park and the library. Today we met some friends at the bowling alley and played a couple games.
Ate nachos and drank orange crush! Then I took them to Sonic for slushes w nerds in them. We then went to Tennet lake to get my mile in. I thought we weren't going to make it in time to pick Sam up but we made it...they even ran up to the observation deck. Beautiful hike, definitely do it again when we have more than a half hour!
Then we picked up Breanna came home and made tacos and hen went to DQ. Ok so my kids got a lot of junk food today... But they sure are happy!!
