4th of July weekend!

For the 4th of July weekend we went to the cabin for a relaxing weekend! (Well, it was relaxing for us...it may have been another story for Nana and Papa!)
For part of the festivities, Nana was kind enough to get us tickets to the Oakley Rodeo. Brandon and Papa volunteered (more like insisted) to stay at the cabin with Lily!
So, Nana, Zak, Colin, Cori, Tyson and I went to the Rodeo.
I thought it was a lot of fun, and Tyson had a great time! It was his first Rodeo and big fireworks display!
An action shot of Steer Roping!
Tyson took a whole bunch of crazy pictures. I deleted most of them, (they were blurry or of a pole or other random things) but here is a nice cowboy pic!
Tyson was so cute...there was a nice lady in front of us with a cowboy hat and Tyson tapped her on the shoulder to talk to her about her hat. She was really nice to him and chatted with him for a moment. A few minutes later Tyson tapped her on the shoulder again and told her, "I don't have a cowboy hat, but I can yell YEE HAW!"
So we did the whole Rodeo!
YEE HAW!

Me and my Tyson!

Another great shot by Tyson!
Zak, your nose a little itchy???
The kids love the cabin!
Look at that cute little face with crazy hair!
She was playing with the marble toy and saying "whoa, Whoa!"
Zak and Tyson playing video games!
What a great uncle Zak is!

Brandon reading to the kids just before we were leaving!
Ahhhh!

On Saturday, all the boys went fishing and the girls, (except Nana) went shopping in Park City!
Cori and I found a great deal at Aeropostale $5 tee shirts and I had a 20% off coupon, so the tee shirts ended up being $4. What a deal!
Anyways, Tyson finds sticks everywhere he goes. He found a T-Rex arm bone, and all of these sticks that he turned into a boat that can fly!
I love kids and their imaginations!
The boat/plane!

Lily was mad I was taking pictures of Tyson and not holding her!
Brandon took Monday off too, so he got to come to swimming lessons with us and later that afternoon we saw Toy Story 3 and afterwords took the kids to a park to play and we topped off the day with ice cream shakes! It was a great way to end the 4th of July weekend!
Happy Independence Day!

Nothing better than a nose shot. Well, maybe a bum shot?

Love your new tables and handles. They look great!
