Chris and his "whale" he caught. This was the biggest fish we pulled out. It must have been pretty tough because it had 4 other lines in it, one with a bubble attached. He lost one other one that was about the same size. He is determined to catch it the next time.
Wyatt and his snail collection. He thought it was great that they would stick to his arm!!!
Erika the pop monster!!! She would steal anyone's pop and literally guzzle it down. She drank so much that I was afraid she would be so hyper but nope, she was just normal.
The DNR releasing fish into the pond. They would stock the pond with about 1200 fish a week!!
The 4 amigos watching the DNR put the fish in the pond.

We went on our annual camping trip to Joe's Valley. It was a lot of fun as usual. The kids loved it and can't wait to go again. Luckily we will be going again in about 2 weeks. The kids had a great time playing with their cousins, fishing, and getting dirty. I am so thankful that we have a trailer to sleep and wash in!!!
Erika celebrated her 2nd birthday on July 21st. I can't believe that she is already 2!!! Time flies by so quickly. she is definitely head strong and knows what she wants. She will not be left out of anything!!! She is such a joy to have in our lives, even if she does cry a lot. Happy birthday baby!!!

All the grand kids. Staring from the back, L-R: Dalan, Dennver, Drake, Dade, Teila, Johnathan, Sadie, Wyatt, Cidnee, Erika. What a greaat looking bunch. Thankfully there were more cameras that hopefully got a better shot!!!
All of us!!! We had the first ever reunion of just my siblings. We went to Huntington lake and had a good Dutch oven meal.. The kids played in the water, caught crawdads, and had a great time. It was hot but not nearly as hot as Vegas!!! Hopefully we will be able to continue this tradition. We have always done it on my mother's side and I know that I have a lot of fond memories of our reunions. I want to be able to continue that tradition with my kids and their cousins.
