The Joys of July

July was action-packed with lots of fun with our friends including 4th of July festivities, playgrounds, paddle boats, farmers markets, fountains and fun crafts.  We ended the month with a great trip to Pennsylvania to visit family, and Patrick met his aunts, uncles and cousins.  It was his first time on an airplane and Ben & Everett saw their first movie in the theater!

What a great way to celebrate Independence Day!

I think we've visited every playground in the area:)

Fun in the fountains...we got a little wetter than Mom & Dad expected;)

Feeding the ducks is even more fun from a paddle boat

Some balloons made the farmers market even better

We made some awesome "crafts with Mrs. K" this summer.  Look at our crazy hair...

..and our "action paintings".  Thank you, Mrs. K!!

 

 

Patrick showed off his favorite blanket...

...and big brothers joined the fun with their special blankets:)

Summer wouldn't be complete without some movie nights

Look who's working on sitting up!

Enjoying dinner out with the family in Pennsylvania

And burning off some energy afterward on the putting green...

Joking around with our California cousins...

Ev is always ready for an adventure

Watching "Finding Dory" in style...our first trip to the movie theater!

Time for a little R&R with Dad
