Home Made Bouncy Balls and VBS

 We made home made bouncy balls with our favorite neighbor Kristen! It was so much fun and they actually do bounce!
 At first, the mixture did not seem like it was going to roll into a ball but after quite a bit of rolling, it started to form.
 Lots of rolling!
 Everyone made a bouncy ball! It was great!
 The kids went to VBS at Reflections Church. This church was started by the Pastor that actually married us when he was the Pastor out in Caldwell at Boone Memorial Presbyterian Church.
We have kept in touch with him because he is so wonderful!  His church did a great VBS and I am so happy my kids could be part of it!
 Tanner
 Carter
 Carter singing and doing the hand motions! So hilarious!
 The Campers!  or maybe I should say divers since it was an underwater theme!
 Our good friends Chad and Alicia go to this church and they volunteered to help with VBS.  Chad is the voice of the Octopus and Alicia was the Dive Chief!
 Tanner really rocking it!
 Chloe and Tanner
 Pastor Dave, the cool dude that married us, with our 3 little kiddos!
 
All the kids! I'm so happy I took Kristen with me to watch the little performance! She helped me with Hadley as well as reminded the boys to get their hands out of their pants!  So cute!

Summer Fun!





 Summer is in full swing and so far it has been filled with lots of fun! Playing in the sprinklers with friends, sleepovers, and sunshine!


 Cousin Lauren is in town this week staying with her Grandma and Grandpa.  She came over to play and the kids had so much fun they wanted to have her sleep over.  I thought it was a great idea too! We set up the tent in the play room and let them go crazy! This picture was taken at 10:00 PM. Tanner and Lauren totally asleep and Carter had already put himself to be back in his own room.
 Tanner, Lauren and Carter!
 
I even got to catch up with and play with my friends too!

Chandler!

 On Sunday, Chandler was Baptized.  The service was wonderful and the little man did a great job! He loved getting baptized, of course it doesn't hurt that he thrives on being the center of attention either!





 Chris's parents and Grandpa came to town this weekend also! It was fun to see them!  Here is 4 generations of Saunders men!
 After those festivities we did Bonsai! Here is Hadley and Daddy!
 The brothers








 
We love summer!!

4th of July

 July 4, 2012 was filled with sun, water, friends and family! We started the day off in the pool with friends and neighbors! Our neighborhood did a great 4th of July party that had a 50's theme to it with a bike parade for the kids, games, bounce houses and BBQ hot dogs!

 After a day of play and rest, we headed over to the Summer's for dinner and fireworks! Good neighbors and a BBQ!
 Fun times!
 I love the trampoline although my 3rd baby bladder prevents me from jumping too long on it!  Wish I could get that fixed...!
 Hot dogs for the kids and TriTip for the adults!
 Carter and Kristen resting before fireworks!
