Can you say busy summer?!?!

I feel like I am never going to get caught up posting about all of the fun things we have done this summer! We have been so busy doing so many things!
Every summer in Baker they have the Miner's Jubilee parade and a week long flea market sort of thing in the park. We needed something to keep us busy while Greg was busy studying for the bar Exam so we headed to the park!
Brooklyn was so excited to play in the bounce house and go down the big slides.
 After playing for a little bit, we went and got our free snow cones and walked around looking at all of the booths. 
 Meanwhile, Bostyn swiped my snow cone..
At the parade.
During the week of Miner's Jubilee, they also bring in a little carnival. 
Brooklyn was so excited to go on some fun rides!
 Earlier in the summer my Mom and Grandma came over for a quick visit. While they were here, we all went  bowling.
We all love it!
Especially Brooklyn, she gets so excited every single time!
The girls were so happy they go to spend time with two of their grandmas.
If you know Brooklyn, you know she is constantly dressing up and changing her clothes! She sure has a good imagination and comes up with the funniest combinations!
Bath time is one of our favorite parts of the day! Bostyn gets so excited when she hears the bath tub running and takes off crawling full speed to the bathroom. Brooklyn loves to have lots of bubbles and thinks it is so funny to look like Santa Claus.
Her shirt says it all!
I have found quite a few good deals garage sale-ing this summer and these skates were one of them! They look brand new and were only $2. Brooklyn loves to go out and "skate".
Bostyn is always so happy and has such a big smile.
In August Brooklyn had two weeks of swimming lessons! She did so awesome and was one of the best swimmers in her group, we can thank living in Florida for that!
She was so excited to go to her lessons every day.
Bostyn kept herself entertained while we watched Brooklyn swim.
Brooklyn really is a pretty good swimmer! Her teacher said technically she would be in the next level up, but because she was only 3 at the time and couldn't touch the bottom of the pool, she had to be in the lower level.
While Zack and Nicole were still here, they introduced Bostyn to pickles and she went CRAZY for them! She was diving all over the place to try and get a bite.
Love this picture!
Even though we weren't in Florida, this summer was still so hot! So we invited a few friends over for a pool/sprinkler party!
These cute little guys Reggie and Orrin got to come over,
and these two cuties Skylar and Mckenzie.

Uncle Zack was getting in some good practice being a dad this summer, and got Bostyn to snuggle and fall asleep!
Before it was time for Zack and Nicole to move back to Idaho, we all took a trip to a water park in Pendelton for the day.
They had so many fun things for kids and Brooklyn loved going down this water slide!


Bostyn loved this bouncy swing and splashing in the water!
 The library here is really great! All summer long they had a summer reading program where you kept track of how much time you spent reading and at the end of the summer you could turn your time sheets in for raffle tickets to spend at their carnival. Brooklyn read over 40 hours this summer and got sooo many tickets to buy prizes with!
They had so many little game/prize stations and Brooklyn had a blast running around and trying everything out!
Now that Bostyn is getting older, Brooklyn loves playing with her!  They both love playing with barbies and have so much fun together

Brooklyn loves her baby sister so much! They are already such great friends.
While Court was home from college for a few weeks we got busy canning peaches!
Brooklyn loves to help with anything that we do! Her job was to peel the skin of the peaches after we boiled them, and she was actually really good at it!
We canned 60 pounds of peaches! It was so stinking fun though.
Bostyn was even a part of the action holding on to the rings for us!
Remember how I said Brooklyn loves to dress up....check out this beauty!
Even when she is at a friend's house, it's the first thing she does!
Slowly but surely I arm making progress on blogging our summer!! One of these days I will finally be caught up!

Love all the pictures! We wish we lived closer so we could see the girls grow up! They are both getting so big! Can't wait till this baby comes out so they all can be friends : )

Brooklyn looks so grown up and Bostyn sure is a happy baby. You are very blessed and they are blessed to have you. I'm jealous of your delicious canned peaches. Good for you! The north-west peaches are the best. We bought two cases from Harry & David and loved every bite.
