July in January.

Because I am that behind. I just got to putting photos on the computer from July. Things just got way too hectic with weddings, my brother's wedding, bridal showers, James' back, and my big preggo self being super tired. SO, now here are a few posts from July all in one! It is actually a little sad because I miss grass...and sunshine. But instead of being grumpy, I will rejoice in the day that the Lord has made...even if it is in Michigan and cold and snowy. :)

NANA CAMP. I didn't take many pictures. The one day I had no flash on accident and the other times, it was just too much work to keep up with Eli and take pictures. But I did get a few:


Marble painting. Berlin.


Kaylee.


Egan.


They all look so serious! Eva.


Owen and Heather.


Grace.


Pudding Painting. NOT the best idea to teach your kid to do this...because he started doing this with yogurt at lunch time. But it was fun. :)




He looks like a big ol' chunker.


ha ha. Messy BOY.

RANDOM SHOT.


Eli was quiet and I found him curled in the bitty baby crib with a baby. So cute.

4th of JULY weekend. Little Ethan was born soon after the carnival trip...who would have known?! Heather and I took Owen and Berlin to the carnival. They had a blast. The kids and I went to the 4th of July parade in Clawson and the kids came home with a whole basket of candy...which made them very happy. Eli really liked all the dogs in the parade. And Berlin was amazed by these crazy stilt jumper people (i was amazed too.). Then for the 4th, we had a picnic dinner. It technically wasn't a cookout since I cooked in...but Holly, Joel, Gabe, and Levi came over and we went to the fireworks in Clawson.


Moon Bouncing.


Happy jumping. Owen.




Playing putt putt. Which she really didn't like all that much.


Owen... definitely more into sports than Berlin.




Cheers!


Levi. 11 months old.


Kids being silly.




Gabe being cute.



James' Birthday. THIS is why I blog, I can't even remember what we did! I'll have to ask James. I know that we went to the movies and I think it was to see Harry Potter. But with his back hurting we didn't do much. Anyway, I thought these pictures were cute.


Opening gifts. Is there a resemblance? hmmm.


well, we could just pretend. :) lol. (this one we took for Holly... knowing she love Beckham hotness)
