Sprinkler and Ice Pops

These photos are from a few weeks ago when it was kind of hot, not like this weekend that is going to be in the hundreds. But we are going to be camping, so I'm 100% fine with that. Maybe we'll actually go in the lake this time. Since these photos Pip has started sitting up and she just pushed through her second tooth yesterday! She is going to be officially 6 months tomorrow!
Side note: I'm giving up on the weekly portraits because it was making me feel like I never wanted to touch my blog. So, you'll just have to settle posts like this.

Play Date

Here are some photos from a play date we had with Andrew and Aiden a few weeks ago. This was one of the first times that Andrew and Charlie actually played well together, so it was actually a pretty great time. We are hoping that we can go when it's not raining and then we can go outside and watch the cows and horses. Although Charlie might just cry the whole time, but I'm excited!

Civil War Re-Enactment Part 1

A few weeks ago the Civil War Re-Enactment came to Airway Heights, which is a small town outside of Spokane, and we all decided to go. I have wanted to go to one since seeing "Sweet Home Alabama" and my dream finally came true! I was so excited as we were driving up because there were signs telling you about the history, but Andy definitely sped right past them and we only got to read one word at a time. Haha. Oh well.
I would definitely recommend going to one if you can, but maybe not bringing young children. The guns and bombs were awesome for us adults, but the kids were pretty scared and cried most of the time. Arden loved it, which was not what we expected. Pip didn't much care, but I was holding her with my hand over her ear so it wouldn't be too loud. Charlie did ok up until the fight was right in front of us. Maggie didn't enjoy it from the get go. And Line handled it ok for the first bit but them went back with her dad and Maggie to enjoy the show from afar (which ended up coming their way in the end). We actually ended up going back again, but that's for another time.
Waiting for the show to start
The horses were a big hit with the kids
Unfortunately, our camera ran out of memory right as soon as the fight started so this was all we got :/
