We LOVE Summer!!!

My mom, Molly, Abby, Ben, my Dad, and Chloe all riding in the golf cart and the PC 4th of July Parade. All of the kids had so much fun waving their flags and throwing candy.

Christopher and Chloe holding sparklers. Chloe learned the hard way that sparklers are hot. She decided to touch the sparkler after it had gone out. We had told her a dozen times that they are hot but she had to find out for herself. I felt so bad for her because she was having so much fun playing with Ben.

I love the 4th of July. Plain City has the best celebration. If you have not experienced it you better come next year ( that means you Ali!!!). Christopher teases me because he thinks I get as excited for the 4th as I do for Christmas. I just think it is so much fun to spent time with my family and have fun.

Summer is by far my favorite time of year. I love playing out in the sun. I think this summer has been so much fun because Chloe is old enough to get excited about the same things that I do. Last week we took the boat to Pineview to try it out. We were not sure what Chloe would think about it but as you can see she LOVED it. She did not even mind wearing her life jacket. She liked it when Grandpa drove really fast. I talked my dad into letting me ride the tube. If you don't know him he is very protective of all of us and since I am pregnant I was not sure what he would say. I don't think we ever even went out of the wake. Then I talked him into letting me hold Chloe. He did not like that idea but she had tons of fun on the tube. I think we need to make this a weekly event. It kills me that I can not water ski but there is always next year.
