The days are long...

This is by far one of my most favorite time of year...

I love that the days are so long....

and the evenings are warm...

and that the sun sets so late...

and that dinner usually consists of whatever you want...

meaning that cereal is okay (my kids call it anything night)...

I love that the air is dry and hot...

but I hate the sweating...

I love that the little girls love to get wet and that they usually end going through two outfits a day because of that...

I love the late nights and late mornings...

I love the ease of summer...

I love watching my kids play outside...

I love waiting outside for Chris to come home from work...

I was able to capture some fun moments from my little girls when we were out one night...

they were twirling and dancing and playing king of the mountain (which was me) and then they were doing my hair and giggling a ton...

It was one of those perfect moments for me...

so far the summer has been eventful...

full of sicknesses all around..

Sweet Addy has an appointment with an ENT to see if she needs her tonsils out fairly soon...

I am hoping we can wait for at least another year but the outlook is grim...

she has been sick for a month and her tonsils are touching as of now...

We have celebrated the 4th in Kaysville probably for the last time...

I am sick of all of the people (like 10,000) and the parade was a total bust...

I told Chris that we aren't going next year...

but we'll see...

The Kaysville fireworks were amazing however...

so a few points were earned that way...

My kids all say that we are celebrating in RF next year because it's way funner...

hahaha

Today we went to the Farmington parade and it never disappoints!!!

We are sort of parade junkies I guess...

Here are a few pics for your viewing!
