4th of July Fun!

Ok, so I totally lucked out. Rory has an amazing family that always has something fun planned no matter the circumstances. We were supposed to go camping for the 4th, but due to the fires our plans were put on hold. So Rory's aunt Elynn put on her annual grandma camp and allowed my kids to tag along. She has had activities planned for the kids every day, but I think the kids have enjoyed playing together more than anything.

Last night they had a movie on the lawn and the dad's and kids roughed it slept in tents in Roger and Elynn's backyard. Kadee didn't make it all night, the first sound of thunder and Rory was carrying her home to sleep with Kinlee and I. Luckily we are only 2 houses down so it wasn't too far to go. Tonight we had a delicious bbq with Mike and Brittnee to celebrate Mike's 32nd birthday and then escorted all of the Branch clan to the Wellness Center to swim.  I love the holidays and spending time with our amazing family and friends, plus we finally got some much needed rain today (hallelujah) so hopefully the fire will be contained and the smoke will be clearing out soon.

All tuckered out after a day of swimming, Kinlee fell asleep on my bathroom floor

Kadee (her hair is a mess because we had been swimming) and beautiful Hadley

Kinlee and one of her favorite cousins, Kelka (as she pronounces it)

Boys will be boys

By the way, it's not that I don't love Connor, but he won't ever slow down for me to take his picture.  Hence, a lot of pictures of the girls and hardly any of the boy.   Still love him to pieces though!
