Bob the Builder and Skiing

so blair and I were at Lowes and saw these cool planter boxes. They wanted 40$ per box, so blair and I looked at eachother and he said "we can make that!" so we bought the wood and put our newly purchased router to the test. Blair did most of the work, I was more of a "construction" helper. blair stained the 2 boxes when he was done so I will take some pics of them with my tomato plants (once I get a tomato!!!)

Blair loves handy-man work, and he's pretty good at it!!!

Me and My Ski

you see that chop!? I got hosed on the water selection :)

this is my first ski this year, with my new ski that Blair got me for our anniversary.
the water was really cold (the water was 58 degrees), so I wore my shorty. the water is great now though! Blair's really excited that I'm enjoying something he loves to do.

The Fourth!!! I'm 22!!

the manly sport of rubberband-airplane flying

Man she's cute, both mom and baby!

Me, Sarah, and Becky....o yeah Becky's pregant :). She's due in a few weeks! Go baby Hunter!

Jared and Beck got me some mike and ikes for my birthday, so I was gladly sharing with the kids who thought they would look really good all over my white frosted cake

Blair was on sparkler duty and the kids were keeping him busy asking "can I have two uncle blair?"!

Nomi and her sparkler

you see that taffy in Eden's hand? Well, being the aunt I am, I fed it to her piece by piece. of course she's got to have some taffy, its the fourth of July parade!!! psst... don't tell Katie

Baby Eden enjoying the fire works. Apparently she wanted to sit alone

This is Veronica's newest addition, Benjamin, who Tavie kindly named "Bean". He really liked Blair. He would back into him to have Blair pick him up. it was pretty cute.

Aunt Donna rocks, of course, and got us all sorts of fun things to play with. Here is Evan and Jared trying to teach Britton how to use the rubber band airplane. I tagged Sarah with it 3 times ( I have great aim)

Tavie and Naomi with sparklers. We started early with the fireworks. We had a lot of sparklers to burn through!!!

This is Thank you in sign language from our cute niece, Eden


we hope everyone is having a great summer, I know we are.
not the best picture, but a fun one!!
