Fourth of July FUN

On the 4th of July we went to a birthday party for Marianne who turned 5 on July 3. The kids had a great time! It was their first time trying to hit a pinata. I think Ethan really wanted to have a go at it. Here are some pictures of the party...
















When we got home Scott set up the Nave pop up camper on the driveway. The kids were soooo excited!! We have spent every day in it since. We play restaurant, house, color, read books, put together puzzles, etc.

On Sunday, July 5, we went to the Whitecaps baseball game. My dad, brother Scott and nephew Parker were there also. We were actually in the same section just a few rows apart. It was a beautiful, warm day. I took the kids, along with Parker, to the playground and bouncy thing where they worked off a lot of energy and worked up a big sweat. Of course we only made it through the 4th inning, then it was off to Wendy's for a frosty to cool down.




















I took the kids to Parker's house to play that night. It is so sweet to watch Olivia and Cobie. They are so interested in each other and so cute together. We had ice cream sandwiches and Uncle Scott set off some fireworks. I so wish I had a picture of Ethan and Olivia with their hands over their ears while these little "fireworks" were going off. They learned quickly that there was nothing to be afraid of.



After such a long, fun filled weekend the kids were exhausted. Scott and the kids attempted to spend the night in the camper but that only lasted until 10:30. Olivia says they spent "half a night" in it.
