4th of July

Our day was full of fun things to do. First we went to the parade with Michelle and Addison.

Mom had to get my picture by the band, Dad would be so proud!!


Later that day we went to my friend Katie's house and had a neighborhood BBQ and got to light off some fireworks. Katie and I are throwing those popper things at the ground.

I loved playing with the sparklers!!
Daddy helped me with the snakes but I was so interested in what the big kids were doing, I can't wait until I'm old enough to shoot off the big fireworks!

Dad thought it was funny to write my name with the purple smoke bomb.


Finally we went to the big fireworks with Kelly, Michelle and Addison.
We all had a great 4th of July!

Brayden and Grandma's visit

Grandma and Brayden came to KC to hang out with us for a few days. Mom and Dad went out to dinner and a movie so I got to play with Brayden.
This is actually Aunt Pretty's baby but some how it ended up at our house after we left Grandma's house last time. I made sure that the baby had fun riding the bike.
First I taught that baby how to drive...

then I let her drive all by herself... she did pretty well.



Brayden thought it was fun to do tricks on my four wheeler.
The next day we walked to the park, we always have so much fun on the swings.



Before lunch we went swimming, I like to float on my back and show everyone my pretty pink toes!
Addison even came swimming with us.
I had a great couple days with Grandma and Brayden, I love it when they come up and see me.

Swimming with Dad

I love it when Dad comes swimming with me, we have so much fun.
This is Mom's favorite picture!!
Dad likes to throw me way across the pool. The other people at the pool just laugh at me as I'm flying past them, it's so much fun!!


Grandma was in town so she took some family pictures of us.
Dad, Mom and my baby brother, I can't wait until he is here so we can play together.



Here is me in my new bed, for once in my life I look so little!!

I love that it has a trundle, now my friends and cousins that are always spending the night have a place to sleep.

Wichita

Mom and I drove to Wichita to help Grandma with the garage sale. But before we did that we were able to go to the zoo and see some animals, they were being amazing that day. This monkey started by throwing poop at the glass, then it came over and was checking everyone out.

At the gorilla exhibit it was just about lunch time so they were fighting and pushing each other way from the food door. It was pretty funny watching them push each other off platform then grab on the rope and swing down.

This giraffe had stepped down into the moat and was getting really close to us. Brayden was holding out some leaves and the giraffe actually ate right from his hands. The zoo keeper said that this giraffe is ornery and was always disobeying.

Look at how close he got to us!! It was so cool!

The penguins were really active that day as well. Brayden and I were chasing them back and forth trying to catch them, but they were swimming too fast for us.

This was one of the best days at the zoo, all the animals were so active. We had such a great time. We love the Wichita zoo!!

The next day we had our garage sale. Brayden was selling lemonade and cookies, I was helping. We might have eaten all of our profits though!! Thanks for the cookies Grandma!

Uncle Klint is so much fun, he is always willing in get on the floor and wrestle with us. I love to talk to Klint on the phone, I'm constantly asking Mom to "call Kent" so I can talk to him. I have the best Uncle!!

Konnor and Brayden

Brayden and Aunt "Pretty", Brayden is wearing the transformer mask that makes your voice sound really funny.

KC Zoo

Addison and I were so excited to go to the Zoo.


We were trying to see the giraffes and zebras but they are really far away (this is why Mom and Michelle don't love this zoo). Addison and I didn't mind we could still see all the animals, just not as close as at other zoos. Mom and I are going to the Wichita zoo with Grandma this week, I can't wait!!


We still had a great day at the Zoo, Addison's favorite was the Zebras, I liked the Monkeys and Elephants.
