Graduation Party

My little sister Sarah just graduated from High School. I also have two cousins who did as well. These three were all born within 2 months of each other 18 years ago! They have been the closest of friends. Sarah graduated from Cottonwood High, Ali graduated from Bingham High and Joseph Graduated from South Paulding High in Georgia and he is leaving on his mission in less than a week! Joseph is going to the Salt Lake South mission which half of our family lives in :) Joseph was here to see his mom one last time before his mission. My mom and aunts threw a party for them! We had yummy pulled pork sandwiches and some other good stuff! We had a nice night talking and spending time with family! We love these three and are so proud of each of them!
The kids love my uncle and aunts backyard!

These two are always on a power struggle over everything, it is pretty comical!

Ella was pretty excited for her orange creamsicle ice cream!












Randoms

Addie and her sidewalk chalk! She always ends up so messy!

My amazing uncle Donn has been doing our sprinklers for us! It has been no easy job! He has been here working after he leaves his normal job and stays until it is dark. It has been so hot too! Easton has absolutely loved following him around! He doesn't leave him alone! He at one point was singing Frozen songs to him:). 
Because when it is 100 degrees outside a fleece hat is a must!
We were outside and someone left the door open to the house (someone is always leaving the door open) and Addie went in and I went looking for her she had climbed the stairs! She had never even tried before this so I was shocked!
The final weeds that were pulled before the sprinklers were started!

Father's Day

Father's Day was a great day! We love Andrew and love having a reason to celebrate him! He is an amazing Dad and the kids adore him! He does the best at taking care of them and is so good at juggling everything! We are thankful for all he does for us and works so hard to take care of us! We got him some new clothes and a new water bottle! He was excited!

This girl is a mommy's girl thru and thru but she loves her daddy too!

Wedding shower

I had a cousin from my Dad's side get married a couple weeks ago. My mom threw a shower for her a couple weeks before that. We had yummy lunch and the brides mom put a quilt on to tie! It was fun seeing some of my Pond relatives. I usually only see them once or twice a year!

Being outside

My kids love being outside and it was hot for a few weeks. So hot that we couldn't go outside for a while! We enjoy when we can!
Addie loves the sidewalk chalk! She also has learned to get off the porch which is a bummer!

She brought her little books out this day!

She just wants to be like the big kids and ride their bikes! I love this picture of the two of them!

Outside

More Outside Pictures!!





Water table

My water table is still being stored at my Grandma's house. I think I've just decided to leave it there and get me a new one so we have one at each place! My kids love it and we have definitely gotten our money's worth! My Grandma loves us to come so it stays there! 

This girl has the best facial expressions!


She loved it but was shivering!
