Happy July 4th!!!!

 Riley Kick Started our day as we headed to the Pancake breakfast at my Moms church, Luckily she still lives in the Ward because i've going to this since I was a little girl and I love taking my kiddos now.

 Aven and Riley bike riding, the cousins are so cute and such best buddies!

 We heeded home for a little rest and packed up to spend the the rest of the day/Night at Abalone Beach. It was cold and windy but nobody minded, the beach is the beach and we always make it an adventure!

 Riley was a little disappointed that the Crab hunting was a little slow...

I love this piece of sand that slashed onto Sid's face, not sure how but I quickly snapped the picture!

 She was a little discussed after touching the seaweed hahaha

Riley decided to brave the water, crazy kid!

We kept the kids busy playing with bubbles, coloring inside and eating :)

  And we managed to get a family pic, kind of :)

 

It was one of the best 4th of July's we've ever had! 

I generally only post the "good" Sunday pictures of Riley and Sidney, but I'm sure its no surprise the reality of getting a good picture loose like this...

1st they ignore me, then they give me the "why do we have to do this EVERY Sunday faces"

Then I usually tell a joke or start singing in a funny voice sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't...

Today I made up a song about Sidney loving her brother, so she hugged him but seems he didn't appreciate her stepping on his tow.

I thought these would do, but then Daddy came outside and luckily I snapped a few more.

The money shots! Notice how sid is holding up her foot obviously being sure she didn't step on Rileys feet.
