Everson Parade

Colby, Brielle, and Corson signed up for the reading program at the library this summer.  As part of the summer reading program, they were invited to be in the Everson parade with the library's entry.  The kids were super excited about this!  So the day of the parade we loaded up the bikes and and headed for downtown Everson!  So far the parade has been one of the highlights of the summer for the kids and they can't wait til next year to do it again!

Take Me Out to the Ballgame

The kids earned some Bellingham Bells tickets from a summer reading program.  Unfortunately we didn't get to pick the date and it was not supposed to be a nice day!  We left Lance at home with his bad back and headed to Joe Martin field.  The kids were pretty excited for their first game.  I was expecting them to get bored and only make it a few innings, but they lasted the whole game!  Thanks to Auntie Cara's friend we were able to upgrade our seats from the bleachers to some seats under cover so we stayed nice and dry!

Red, White, Blue, and Sparkles!

We spent the Fourth at home, a much needed day to relax!  The day started with doing Brielle's hair in a star design.  It's so fun now that she sits still to let me try these fun designs!  I was a total slacker and did not buy my kids any festive t-shirts, so this was the best she could find in her closet.  And I think she looks adorable!
After her hair was done, she needed the nails to match, and then Corson needed to join the fun, and then mom needed her toes done too!  Lots of red, white, blue and sparkles!
The neighbors always host an epic party, and we are lucky enough to have a nice lawn to let them play games on, so we get to join in the fun!  
And finally, time for fireworks!  So thankful this year has been wetter than last year so we could safely light our fireworks!  Corson fell asleep at 8, so he didn't get to see the big ones, but Colby and Brielle had fun staying up super late and enjoying the show!
Happy Fourth!!
