July Misc.

Emma, Kylie, Jaya, and Halle
We met up with some friends today and went to the Farmer's Market in Moses Lake and then out to lunch. These girlie's are the cutest ever.

Nick and Courtney drove me to Sunnyside for my cousin Danielle's championship swim meet Friday night.

Conner's birthday party was last Tuesday and we had a great time. Kylie and Conner ended up getting into the pool. They both enjoyed the cupcakes.

Kylie helping Conner and his daddy open up the presents.

We went to a presentation about "Sea Life" at the Royal City library last Tuesday. Kylie liked all of the glass jars of fish and animals.

We went out to Allred's Pond last Wednesday. Kylie had a good time, but her life jacket may be a little big yet.

Daddy and Kylie at swim lessons last Monday night. Ryan was able to take Kylie. They both had a good time, but the water was a little chilly.

Ryan's 29th birthday was Tuesday. Ryan and I were able to go out to dinner at his favorite "Outback," before cake and ice cream at Conner's birthday. Then I surprise Ryan with a little family birthday at the Callahan's water slide. We had the best time. Everyone enjoyed the water, the food was delicious, cupcakes were so special, and Ryan got to entertain us with his buddy Slag. Thank you to our family and friends that helped me with the party. Happy Birthday Ryan!

Swim Lesson

Kylie has her very first lesson on Monday night. She loved it. She asked me Tuesday morning is she was "go fishin mom in the water, o.k.?" We played a game about being a fish in the water. I learned a lot to about how to hold her and to count before she jumps in. We are looking forward to swim lesson every Monday and Wednesday for the next four weeks. Can you tell by her face that she was excited for her first swim lesson.?

Saturday in Ephrata

Ryan and I went into the FREE JoDee Messina concert in Ephrata Saturday night. I wiggled to the front and we were in the fifth row. She has a lot of songs. I had a good time!

The Wood's family(Allie, Julie, Aunt Katy, and Brandon) came and picked up Kylie so Ryan and I could go to the concert.

Brandon, Allie, and Julie. They are visiting from Kentucky for a month.

Kylie and I headed into Ephrata early Saturday morning for the 3 on 3 tournament. My three brothers play on the Ellensburg Turtles. They played really great and Kylie enjoyed sitting on the curb watching the action. We all went to lunch and then off to Splash Zone. We had a very busy, but so much fun spending the day with my entire family.

Friday Fun in Tri-Cities

We headed down to Pasco for a Friday with my Aunt Teresa, and cousin Molly. We picked blueberries. It was so easy and they are so delicious. Then we had a picnic lunch and Kylie played in the water at the "Playground of Dreams." It is a free water park in Kennewick right down by the water. We played the really cool wooden park to dry off. Her highlight of the day was several bites of Molly's snow cone. Then we headed to Kohl's, the Mall, and Target. It was so great to get to spend the day with them. They are so good with Kylie and so much help.

Amy and I planned a fun little get together for us mom's last Thursday. We were able to sit and visit and the kids could run wild. It was a fun afternoon with lots of sun and great little lunch. Lots to visit about and catch up on. Thanks to those of you that were able to make it. We would like to do it again next summer.

We headed over to Pomeroy for Grandma McKeirnan's 80th Birthday party. It was my mom and aunt who put together a wonderful party. The food was great and I know that my grandma had a good time. I was asked to help with the entertainment. I put together a slide-show for her with 80 years of photos. We had church with her in the morning and then a nice breakfast before we all headed home on Sunday. Happy Birthday Grandma!
