Fourth of July!!

We traveled the great 45 minute distance to my sister's house for the celebrations. The kids swam ALL afternoon. Their bellies were so big afterwards that I wonder how there was any water left in the pool. We had BBQ food that made my belly so big that I found out how much meat and corn is my breaking point. Kate got a pinata for the kids and then we left for the park. Does anyone not love holidays like this? Food, family, fun, and fireworks-doesn't get better!




Macy-Moo is a WATER DOG-nothing more to say on that!

Lounging Leif loves looking lazy!

Seeing little Gage ride this razor scooter is so hilarious. He is actually pretty awesome for a 2-year old

Cole does not smile-He just won't!

My little Gager is not happy without a piece of sugar in his mouth. Which leads me to my next subject. I have taken my kids off sugar (This picture proves I am trying my best but still not 100%). I came to the conclusion that sugar made my kids so mad. Not wild mad but hate-mad. They would scream and fight and whine and.....so I have mostly taken them off sugar and it is night and day difference. When they don't eat sugary snacks all day (like they were) they are nicer people and mom needs nicer people or mom will go insane. Which leads me to my next subject-I have gotten a second job. I now work for Macy's (thank you dad!) in the early morning. I have two jobs. If anyone is reading this who knew me in college or high school you might not believe that I even have one but I have two!! What was I saying about going insane?
