 |
| Kamryn and Bronson having fun with "Ammy" :) |
 |
| Bronson and Kamryn (my cousin Kate's daughter) had tons of fun playing in the slip 'n slide |
 |
| Wagon rides and Bronson telling my Aunt Karen "I don't want to go hooooome!" lol. This kid is a charmer and has an interesting form of persuasion. I don't know why he was putting on the theatrics because we hadn't even mentioned going home yet and stayed for another couple hours. Silly sweet-talker :) |
 |
| When the pool was finally available we spent most of those 100+ degree days here. Jeremy even moved his traeger over so we could have dinner pool side. It was so awesome not being pregnant this summer and enjoying all the things I normally look forward to :) |
 |
| This is a very common occurrance with these two and most of the time I'm yelling at Bronson to get off of his baby sister.... although I don't know why because she absolutely LOVES IT. I just worry that one I'll hear the "I can't breathe"scream and I don't want to lose that last shred of sanity I still possess. |
 |
| My high school friend Stacy & her family own a condo in Crescent Bar, and she invited the kids and I to come out for the day. We had tons of fun lounging at the resort's pool all day & Stacy & I even got to go bikini shopping. Bronson had a blast playing with her 2 beautiful girls and hangin' with "the guys". He made himself very comfortable running around with Sloane and saying "hi" to all the people sitting out in the sun. |
 |
| There is this awesome privately-owned water slide in Royal City that is a perfect summer activity for the kids. We were able to go out once this summer and Bronson made a new buddy Jett. They make a pretty adorable pair, at least I think so |
 |
| Going down the slide together. He was a little skeptical at first but after that first ride he LOVED it. I got my work-out in that day walking up that dang hill a hundred times! :) |
 |
| Bronson & Jett floating in the pond. Cuties. |
 |
| Averi & Papa Wayne getting some one-on-one time |

Hanging on to my legs at the pool. He was
a little fish this summer. I couldn't believe how
comfortable he got in
the water. By the end of the summer he was taking
his vest off and holding his breath with his
head under water, paddling and kicking from me to
the stairs, about 5 ft out. He was jumping off the diving
board with or without anyone else in the pool and
he even attempted to DIVE off the edge several times. It
was so fun to watch him figure out new things. He's
growing up really fast and I'm so proud of him & the boy
he's turning out to be...ok, that was a bit of a lengthy
caption, haha.

 |
| The little Miss sporting the one-piece. Love that cute little face! |
 |
| he's starting to escape from my kisses... NOT ok. ;) |
 |
| Jeremy and I celebrated our...ok let me think, yes 4th year of marriage this July. I think I am worse than he is about remembering this day & which year we are actually celebrating. I'm great with Birthdays, but apparently not so great with this. |
 |
| We both completely stuffed ourselves at dinner and were adamant that neither of us needed nor wanted dessert...however as the night wore on visions of a perfectly caramalized creme brûlée began to over-take my thoughts and when our awesome waitress came back with the bill I told her if they had a great creme brûlée I would get one. And, imagine that, they had one! It was well worth the "I-ate-to-much" tummy ache afterward. |
 |
| We went to one of the only "nicer" restaurant's in Moses Lake for the big 4 year :) I was honestly surprised Jeremy was able to do anything considering how busy this time of year for him is. So to go out to dinner in the nearest "city" (40 minutes drive) and to be kid-free for a few hours was perfect. Plus, the view, the sunset and the warm air was like something from a fairy-tale. Love you Jeremy. Here's to 4 more...lol ;) |
 |
| My sister Bonnie & her kids were able to visit us several times this summer which was so awesome. Bronson is happiest when he's with his cousins so, among many other reasons, I get really excited when my sisters come to visit. As a side note, Bonnie likes to bring us all gifts when she comes. Its like Christmas each time! :) haha. Thanks for everything Bonnie! |
 |
| Bronson had fun showing off to Cash & Mimi that he could jump off the diving board, adding a little flare arm action as he did! lol |
 |
| Cash jumping of the board. He really loved the water slide but no matter how hard we tried Bronson wasn't convinced that it was safe. Maybe next year... |
 |
| Ruby, aka "Doobs" playing tug-of-war with Jaeger. She is Bonnie's third & youngest baby. Such a cutie. |
 |
| Ok, maybe this picture is totally inappropriate but it seriously kills me. Cash and Bronson having a brotherhood moment... and why is my son so out of control? You can tell Cash is a little weirded-out. lol. Gotta love having boys. |
 |
| Bronson and I got to celebrate with his cousin Darcy for her 3rd birthday. They are just 5 weeks apart and are pretty precious together. It was a pool party at Jeremy's cousin's grand- parent's place. Bronson felt right at home and was jumping off the diving board like a little maniac. Its cute seeing such a little person be so fearless |
 |
| Bronson giving the beautiful birthday girl kisses. He looks like a midget, but I promise he's not that much shorter than her! |
And then we went to Priest Lake: PARADISE :)
 |
| The fam on the beach the first day. Believe it or not, this was Bronson's first experience playing at a beach of any kind. I sort of feel like a terrible parent. |
 |
| LOVING IT |
 |
| We were meant for this kind of life :) |
 |
| Jumping like a crazy person! |
 |
| Bronson making sand castles and an un-flattering shot of me. I am apparently married to a big kid. |
 |
| back at the cabin getting ready to make s'more's :) |
 |
| Bronson wanted to give Av a "ride"...she wasn't all that impressed. Her face expressions are priceless! |
 |
| roastin' marshmallows :) |
 |
| our evening walk to the fire pit. |
 |
| Bronson's first encounter with the lake. Very magical moment, I'm sure ;) |
 |
| the little shaded fort we made for miss A |
