Birthday Camping

This year's birthday was probably the best yet. They just keep getting better! We decided to go camping with our friends, Brad and Brooke. It was also Harley's first REAL camping trip. She did so good! She loved getting in the river and playing, even though the water was FREEZING! She did so good around camp too. Just sat around the fire with us while we roasted smores and laughed the night away. We found a little 4 mile hike up to a pretty lake on Saturday. I was a little worried Harley wouldn't be able to do it, with the heat, but she proved me wrong! She led the entire trail and met lots of doggie friends along the way. Here's a few pics of our little weekend adventure:

Hiking!



All worn out. She slept the ENTIRE way home. :o)




Such a fun trip! We got back that night and Tay's family took us to Little America for my birthday dinner. They have the best rolls in the whole world! I love that place!
Sunday, my actual birthday, Tay surprised me with chocolate donuts for breakfast. (Just what I wanted!) We had a nice relaxing morning, laid out at the pool, went to church, then dinner with the fam.
Thanks everyone for making my birthday so special. I am surrounded by the best people!! Love you all! xo

Thank you T-Mobile

When Tay went to his meeting in Seattle, they loaded him up with lots of free stuff. (Gotta love it!) Kaylee happened to be sleeping over that night and the 3 of us, well really 4 of us (Harley included), were on some sort of crazy sugar high and super hyper that night. We were going through the bag of free stuff like it was Christmas. Stupid things like pens, T-shirts, hand sanitizer, keychains, and things of that sort were so exciting to us, it's kind of ridiculous, really.
Here's a couple pics that were taken, um, around 2 AM.






Thanks T-Mobile, for a night of lots of laughs!

4th of July Weekend!

Okay, so I'm almost caught up!
Our fourth was so much fun! It's one of my favorite holidays. I love all the things that surround it: fireworks, carnivals, parades, camping, pool parties, sno cones, BBQ's, and everything else that comes with!
We started off the weekend by spending a little quality time at the pool working on our tans.




Jason, Mika, and Janessa came over and played with us. The actual pool ended up being closed cause some kid took a lil poopsie in it. But we hung out on the little splash pad which was perfect.




The evening, we had a BBQ at Tay's uncle's house, who just so happens to have a pool. Basically, what I'm saying, is we didn't get out of our swim suits all day and we LOVED it!




It was fun watching Carter and Morgan (the neice and nephew) splash and play around.






Saturday, Jason and Mika came over and we swam again! I know it seems like a lot, but we LOVE the water and can't get enough of our pool.





We played with our waterproof camera and tried taking some underwater pictures. It was pretty unsuccessful, but lots of fun! Us girls had a hard time staying under water, we just kept floating!





All that made us hungry so the boys went and got us Quizno's for lunch. Hit the spot!!


We got cleaned up and decided to hit Riverton park for the carnival.



We showed off our mad skills with some balloon darts!



Rode some rides!


Then met up with Jason and Karlee for some frozen yogurt!


Last it was fireworks time. Ryan and Janessa met us and we all watched together.











Monday night we finished off our weekend with our own fireworks show after good ole Bachelorette. Such a perfect weekend, wish it could've lasted longer!
