Summer Fun!

July might be my favorite month. The 4th is a great start.
This year we had some friends and family over on the 3rd for food and games in the backyard, and I didn't take a single picture. Opps!
The next day we made bacon/bleu cheese/avocado burgers, homemade fries and root beer floats. They turned out pretty sweet!
Then it was firework time. Damon has always had really sensitive ears. He loves the fireworks, but doesn't want to hear any kind of booom! Silly boy! At least he has no shame.
This last weekend we also enjoyed some classic July activities with Tyler's family.
Camping! It was...dirty! (I even took Damon back into town for bed. I know "Party Pooper!")
At least the kids still look super cute all covered in dirt, bug spray, sunscreen, smoke, food...
Another exciting addition to this years camping experience was 6 little boys running around with pretty sharp sticks "Rat Hunting" as they liked to call it. Kinda hope that one doesn't become a tradition.


Then it was off to the lake. Ahh! The Lake! I just love it there.

July is a great month. The pics of the beach are awesome! "Rat hunting"? Gotta love it. I don't blame you for going home to sleep; that's what I would do too. The sparklers look cool. We bought one tiny pack and we only used one. Mylee was NOT fond of them. The food looks so yummy!
