Fourth of July with Poppy and Gigi

We got to spend a couple of days with Paul and Lisa and we had a wonderful time! The girls couldn't wait to jump in the pool! Rylie walked in and went straight to put on her swimsuit...

The guys went to play golf and the girls hit the pool! 

Rylie was just infatuated with watching for the deer...we got to see a lot and loved seeing the babies!

 Then out to dinner before the fireworks!!

 We went to the park and the girls got to play a little before the fireworks show!

Poppy and Gigi with the girls lookin' at some beautiful fireworks!

 Olivia and Mia came to play and found Gigi's shoes!!

 More swimming...bunch of little mermaids!!

 Katie and Gray giving "hula-hooping" a try!

 Uncle Brian takin' the kiddos for a ride...they could ride all night (the kids that is)!

 Poppy's taking the kids out to feed the deer a little more...they love it!

 Gray was ready to go even though none of those kids had the key!!

 More swimming with Daddy and Poppy!

Rylie loves those puzzles and Gigi loves helping her!!

Beautiful Artwork...

Katie found a feather at MamaJan's and turned it into this!

Katie and Rylie are constantly making us artwork like this! I'm so proud they're so creative and love sharing with everyone else...

Rylie had me cut these ties off of  a dress that she didn't want them on and then created this piece with adding in a coke can tab!

Another one of Katie's creations for her Daddy...hence all the "D's"!

More Games...



The girls love their Sierra!



 They also love their Aunt Sunny who played a lot of games with them the other day!!

 Rylie is REALLY GOOD at MEMORY and beat Aunt Sunny pretty bad!!!
