4th of July (Flagstaff)

When we were in Flagstaff for the Fourth of July, my mom and I took the girls downtown for the parade. It was great because we got a perfect spot right along the street and Lily rocked her tutu and they got a TON of candy and free stuff!

Ella wanted to do this all day, walk with someone holding her hands. After we got home from this trip she started walking on her own, I guess she got all the practice she needed.










Grandma LOVE





Waiting for the parade we got some Chick-O-Stix at a cute little toy/candy shop downtown.

Jumpin on the Tramp at Grandma & Papa's House

These two have some crazy FUN when they are together, and had a blast on the trampoline at the grandparents' house.

Ella's pink tube

Seriously she LOVES this tube, I think because it gives her freedom to move around in the water. At the baby pool near my parents house, it was just the right depth that she could walk around and even float in. Anyway it was so cute just seeing her hang out in her tube all day and now she uses it every time we swim.

Pool Fun

At Kia Sperry's Birthday party there was a huge blow-up water plaything that was AWESOME! Seriously like 2 hours of playing time, the kids had a ball. Not so much Ella, and I LOVE how she can not look at the camera in ANY picture! Too much going on I think. But since then she really has warmed upto the water and we've been swimming a ton lately (her super tan legs are the proof!)

Fun with the HOSE

We sure LOVE playing with the hose on HOT summer Days!
