Summer Activities

So I thought that I might as well give you all a little update about our summer after the excitement of our family vacation. We still frequent the library every week and William is plowing through the family reading program that we signed up for. The part he likes the best is getting a prize when he has finished a week and brings in his chart. One of the prizes was a small cinnamon roll from Geraldine's.
I don't know whose definition of small they were using but it certainly wasn't mine. Honestly, if that is a small I could never eat a large. William thought it was great. He attempted to pick it up to eat but gave up after a few bites. He preferred the eat directly from the plate method. Of course that meant that he was absolutely covered with the icing.
Here are some pictures from the 4th of July. We hung around Idaho Falls, that meant that we had to figure out when and where the parade was, had a picnic, and then ate at the station with Brandon because we can't miss our weekly visit with Karole, Jay, Jamie and Scott. Caitlyn isn't very vocal when we are there but she loves to see them on TV.
Caitlyn has days where she won't let anyone touch her hair and this was one of them so that is why she looks like a little ragamuffin. She thought it was great that we ate at the park, not that she did much eating, and wanted to spend the rest of the day on the swings and slide. William enjoyed it too, but he did eat.


William's favorite part of the parade was the firefighters at the end because they were giving out hats. So here is his fireman pose in his new hat, the last plastic fireman hat we had got stepped on and thus thrown away.
