A sweet moment in between all the not so sweet moments of fighting and teasing- I just had to take a picture. Spencer was trying to teach Carly how to play a duet on the piano AND he was being patient and nice! And Carly wasn't teasing him! Definitely picture worthy!

On my trip to the grocery store today, my car died. We JUST got a new battery the day before because the van died on me a few times going to girls camp. We tried to jump it again and it still didn't start. So this is a picture of our dead van that we just got towed back to our house and Kyle talking to our mechanic neighbor who was trying to help us. Dang thing.

What a fun day today! After church we went up the canyon and had dinner with family. Then we all met at our house for a fireworks extravaganza and homemade ice cream. We had neighbors stop by to watch and we all loved the big, now-legal fireworks! :)

Spencer and I were in the parade today for Independence Day.

Tonight, we waited until the kids were in bed and used our leftover ingredients for homemade ice cream and we made ourselves some of the yummy stuff.

One of our Independence Day traditions is making this red, white, and blue drink. I bought a little extra and so we've been making it for the past few days.

Carly and her friend decided to put makeup on Lady- see it on top of her head? Poor dog.

Our bucket list is starting to get filled up with X's of things we've done!

The kids with their lemonade stand (and cookie stand). We had a yard sale with our sisters and it was a success! But the kids made more money with their stand than we did from the yard sale, can you believe that?! Of course they were excited.
