Jorie's Walking

Jorie decided to start walking just two days before her Birthday.
After an hour or two she thought she was a pro.
She took two steps away from the picnic table and then turned around to come back and lost her balance and ended up with a shiner.

Happy 4th of July

We started out the day by going to a neighborhood flag ceremony.
They read quotes, and sang songs.
Then they had sack races, a tug-o-war, and face painting.
Cameron waited in line for what felt like forever to get his face painted like a cat.
Then wanted it washed off immediately after.

We bought a few sparklers. Cameron was so excited to get started.

Jorie liked watching. We also went to Lehi to watch the fireworks at Thanksgiving Point. The kids loved it. The best part was Jorie's sweet little "ouuuuuuuu" for each firework.

Jorie's First Haircut

Unfortunately, it was by a 3 year old barber. I came home from the grocery store and John handed me a small chunk of hair and said, "You might want to save this." All I could say was. "AHHHHHHHHH!!" Cameron took one chunk right off the back of her head. Luckily, it isn't too noticeable. It was a hard to get it in pictures.

Painting Blocks

John saved all of the wood scraps from framing the basement.
We have made some wooden blocks for Cameron to build with.
Cameron has been working on his dad to make some more.
Here they are sanding the blocks.

Here Cameron is putting on the primer
so we can paint them different colors.

Having Fun in the Sun!

Cameron got invited to the neighbors to play
in his friend Natalie's new pool.

Jorie's first experience in a pool. She loved it.
