Fourth of July Fun!

We had fun with our little family on the fourth. Being so far away from family is hard on holidays but I love that being away makes us stronger as a little family! We started the day off going swimming. Taylor loves going swimming. Her and I try to go to the pool every other day! She always loves it when dad comes though because he builds way cooler sand castles than I do.

This is why I love Marty pool so much. Taylor can have fun in the pool and also get to play in the sand! I would have to say she spends more time playing in the sand but that is fine with me. As long as she is enjoying herself and getting the chance to be out of the house and out being mobile that is what makes me happy!!

Take Me Out to the Ball Game

On Friday night Jaman came home with tickets to the Royals game. They were having a big tribute to Kansas City night with a big firework and slideshow. So we thought it would be fun to take Taylor to see the fireworks. I was just a little nervous about taking her and thought it might be a nightmare. So we went in the 4th inning and she did awesome. She actually had a lot of fun and didn't care to try to go anywhere! She loved the noise and is such a people watcher. Anyone that has been to a big sporting event knows there are plenty of drunk entertainers. Such a fun family night. Thanks Jaman!!!

Go Royals Go!!

This wasn't her first Royals game but I think it will be her last. This will be our last summer here!! I will be sad to leave all this family entertainment. So much to choose from.

My two favorite people in the world. I love them to pieces.

Taylor really got into the clapping and all the activites on the big screen that went on. I didn't know she had such good lungs until she kept screaming and cheering the whole night.

Father's Day Card

Today I took Taylor out for a photo shoot. I wanted to make Jaman a Father's Day card!! We had lots of fun and Taylor showed lots of personalities.

Our Photo Shoot

Here is a collage of Taylor. She expresses almost all of her personalities and I love every bit of them. (Mom double click on the collage and the pictures will be bigger for you--sorry my mom sometimes needs help with this)

Bubble Bath fun with Dad

Bubble baths are a big favorite at our house thanks to Mr. Bubbles and Dad. Taylor always has so much fun when it is Dad's turn to bath. I think it is because by the time night rolls around mom is a little worn out. Thank heavens for wonderful Dad's. Ok I won't lie I did join in the fun this night. We were having beard compotitions. Jaman did win so that is why he got to be in the picture. Thanks Jaman for being such a great dad!!

Deanna Rose Farmstead

About a week ago Jaman's sister Bri and her husband and four kids came to visit us. We all made a trip to Deanna Rose Farmstead. A favorite place of ours to go in the summer. This was our first time going this season. We let Taylor feed the baby goats and she loved it so much. It was so funny to watch her. She was full of giggles. We all had a good time despite the hot and humid weather. Taylor was sweating to death. I know in the pictures she looks like our little pet with a leash on but this little thing is pretty cool. It gives Taylor some freedom but yet she doesn't get lost. She is at a hard age where she doesn't stay in her stroller but for a few seconds and she is done with that.

Taylor learning some driving skills.
