4th of july

we have had one crazy, fun week! we have been to Driggs, Island Park, and Burley within the last week and it has been such a blast.

last Saturday (june 30) we headed up to Island Park to hang out with some family for a few hours! the girls always love hanging out with their cousins!

after island park instead of driving home we decided to drive to driggs and watch the firework show there. I am soo glad we did. it was so much fun and seriously some of the best fireworks i have ever seen. pretty sure we will be going there every year from now on. and i love that they did it on saturday!

the girls got their faces painted!

 we met out friends rhett and whitney there.

our girls had so much fun together(:

 there was a live band before the fireworks and the girls danced their little hearts out! i wish i had a video of it. those girls know how to dance!

they were filthy by the end of the night! that is NOT a tan line....it's dirt(:

on tuesday we headed to burley. all my family comes to town for the 4th. it is one of my very favorite holidays because we are all together!

 at the parade

this is my baby brother aka "uncle baby"

later that  night we had fireworks in the backyard at grandpa's house down by the river. we were able to see a TON of fireworks that night. the city put on a pretty good show and so did my dad and all the neighbors. 

bry was like usual ALWAYS on grandpa's lap! she sure loves that man.

 look at that sunset!!! 

the boys may have gotten in a bottle rocket war/fight. rhett has some nice battle wounds.... 

watch out tazer has a sparkler!!

 we did some laying out and a little bit of boating.

i can't count how many times we found rhett riding this little bike. haha.

i love this girl. shay come live in idaho please!!

rhett babysat while dad, renee, and i went to the gym. he gave the kids a bath and a photo shoot! i love this picture!! 

i had such a great time in burley. i have been with my entire family since Christmas so it was so nice to be with everyone. i cherished every minute of it! and i was able to fit all my favorite things in this week. Maxi's Pizza, Taco Bandito, laying out by the river, and going for a few runs. 

Warren Family Trip

During the 4th of July we had a little Warren Family Reunion and went camping. I was horrible and didn't take very many pictures. These are a few that I did take though. I do have more from the trip thanks to Dusty, but I need to transfer them over from my email, hopefully I can post some of those later.

This is Tazerbug with some celery and some delish Chiz's ranch all over her face.

We went up a couple days early and got to spend some one-on-one time with the grandparents. Here is Mama Warren and Tacey.

I love this pic of Bry.

There was a GORGEOUS lake where we were at. The water was SOO dang cold, but luckily the weather was HOTT!

What a fun trip that was. I am excited to make that a new Warren tradition!

Smith Family Trip

At the beginning of the summer we were able to spend a couple days with my side of the family up near Red Fish Lake. It was such a great weekend.

We ended up driving down a couple days early and hanging out in Sun Valley.

Shorty's is one of my favorite places to go eat so Rhett took me there(:

Rhett and Brybr

The girls scopin out the hotel room(:

Tacey and Brylee posin for a few pictures.

Aren't they the cutest things you have EVER SEEN!! I can hardly stand it!

My Dad and Grandpa Cliff. One of my Favorite Pictures!

I LOVE my hunky husband!

Tacey is such a goofball. She is always great to entertain me no matter where we are.

We did have all the kids on the teetor totter but I guess I took the picture after Coop hopped off. They loved it.

Grandpa Cliff, Dad, and my cute little brother Cooper. That's 3 generations of Smith Boys right there(:

Renee also ran a race while we were up there and she and her team did Great! They ran through the night which sounds Crazy but they all had a blast. I am so greatful for the time I was able to spend with my family.

Girls Trip!

My Mom took my sisters and I on a super fun summer vacay! Loved it! We spent the first few days in St George and then headed to Vegas were we stayed at Planet Hollywood for a few days. It was the first time I have ever left the girls behind...actually it was the first time I had ever gone anywhere without Rhett. I was super nervous about leaving the fam behind, I even almsot backed out a couple times. I am soo glad I didn't, it was so good to be able to spend time with my mom and sisters. It felt crazy not having to push a stroller around or have a diaper bag on my shoulder.

My mom and I at Pizza Factory in St George. YUM

St George Temple

That is one of my very favorite temples

We were makin fun of Sacia, haha. She is always strikin a pose for the camera! You have to admit she always looks good in pictures(:

We ate at the Cheesecake Factory in Vegas. It was so good. We consumed A LOT of calories on the trip, but luckily we walked our little booties off too so it all worked out.

Sacia and Briky

Thanks mom for the Great trip! Love You!
