Fun times

We were determined to make our two weeks with daddy a vacation. I didn't want it to seem like daddy was home too much and make it hard for the kids to let him leave again. I coached them well! "Daddy will be home for two weeks, then go back to work for 4 months, and then he will be home for good!" It worked! We played and played and felt complete. Time went quickly, but here are a few pictures from our special time.

Connor's new bike

Connor learned to ride his bike without training wheels in March. He was on a little 12in bike that was way too small. He waited for Daddy to come home and help him pick out a new one. It was a special day for him.

Fourth of July

For the fourth of July we went on a family bike ride (earlier that week, Kyle had bought me a new bike and we finally settle on a bike trailer for Ryleigh) , spent time with my extended family and watched the fireworks. It was a very full but fun day.

This was Ryleigh's first experience with sparklers. She approached it like she does everything, NO FEAR. I am a little frightened by this tactic, but maybe it will her strength.

Brennan's special day

Four wheelers!

Camping Trip

Our last hoorah was the camping trip. It took days to prepare for and was not without a few bumps in the road, but the boys were happy. Camping had been high on their list of things to do with dad. It was complete with fishing, four wheeling, tent dwelling, and Daddy's cooking! Fun!

I love your family picture! Your hair is so cute.
I also LOVE the pic of Daddy drinking tea with Ryliegh. I really hope the next few months go by fast for you!
