Happy 4th!

We started the 4th off with the Melba parade...a nice small town parade with loads of candy. The weather was so perfect in the morning, breezy and not too hot! Makes this momma happy!

 

Our favorite "Float" in the parade by far!! 

It did get rather hot by mid-day so we hung out by the pool and by we I mean Doug and Allie. They both were burnt to a crisp because I used new sunscreen that apparently was worthless. 

We had a BBQ and then a bike parade for the kiddos in the neighborhood. They decorated their bikes and met at the park. When I planned it I didn't know what to expect. But 2 dads came riding in on their motorcycles and lead the parade for the kids. They were so excited and even in the HEAT of the day they rode around the neighborhood 3 times! I was impressed. Such a fun, new tradition!!

Fireworks with friends and family to top it off. What a day and how grateful we are to live in the good ole USA!

90 years

June Goff. I love her. 

This woman is such an incredible lady that I have the privilege of knowing and more importantly having a bond with. She is my grandma. She's never afraid to try things or do things that are fun. I love her laugh and her love of life. She has always been such a wonderful example in my life.

We threw her a huge 90th birthday party and would not have missed it for the world. Seeing her with that cake was priceless. She got to meet Katelyn for the first time too! Missing her already...

{this moment} - A Friday ritual. A single photo - no words - capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember.

Water Table

This is what we made Katelyn for her birthday.

2 X 4's and a cement tub from Lowe's + Linseed oil to stain it. Total: $10.00ish

She tried it out yesterday and was so excited! Our new summer love :)

She was into it!! Loves it :)
