Fun Days

Summer has been flying by and we have had a lot of fun things going on.

It was great to see Nana and Grandad at Strawberry Resevoir for the Hafen Family Reunion.

Another cool picture of Justin popped up.

Ian LOVES Monopoly and his enthusiasm even led him to attempt to play a game with just Josie and himself.  It ended with him playing both sides by himself for quite a while.

Josie made this cuddly nest for Andy.

We headed to a library story hour and made some contraptions.

We had a great 24th of July!

We've had lots of friends over.  Here are the cute Ellsworth girls playing school with Rachel.  We also had a fun family the Scotts move in next door and here is their first play together.

Rachel had a bake sale (she made everything herself) and had Hannah over to help her with the big event.

Cuddling happened.

Josie turned into a puppy.

We were pioneers.

Ian had a toy from the dentist pass away and we then had a very sad funeral for Spiky.  A mournful song was sung and then Ian said, "I just need to be by myself for a while".  Tragic.

Josie was adorable in pajamas from Bridget's childhood.

Josie liked having a "short cut" just like her Mom.

Andy decided to keep getting bigger and can now pull himself up to standing!

Rachel had a recital and earned her first gold cup through Music Federation.

She was so excited that it wasn't plastic!

Cory and Kristen came and visited for a week from Missouri and Kristen made taffy with the kids.

We went swimming.

And Ian decided to show off some pretty great swimming skills.

We went up to the Zoo.

And had cotton candy beards.

Ethan and Josie loved the car wash with Kassia.

Andy liked having a hair twin.

It was great to have all these funny cousins together!
