BBQ @ GRANDPA POLSON'S!

So on the actuall 4th of July we went out to Grandpa Polson's house again!
All the Aunt's and Uncle's and cousins came to hang out together it was Awesome!

6 GRANDSON'S!
Traceon, Aydan, Dillon, Braxton, Kylar, and Collin!
Big Bros and Little Bros!
These 2 cuties are so sweet!
The new little guy!
COLLIN!
Ahhhhhh!
The uncles took turns haulin' around the kids in the lawn mower trailer!
Best Buds!
What fun it is to have family...
A family of BOYS!

The 4th of July Weekend!

The 4th of July Weekend was so busy this year!
We had lots of visitors!
Uncle Derrick, Aunt Jess, Dillon, and Braxton came up from Utah!
And Aunt Melanie came from Boise!


Dillon with his new cousin Collin!
Aunt Jenny with Braxton!
Justin playing with his nephew Braxton!
The morning of the 3rd (the day of the parade) I put red and blue hair gel in the boys hair!
Traceon's hair was a little too long on top for spiking, so I had to trim in up!

FIRST HAIR CUT!

I made the boys matching shirts this year! It was a fun little project for me! And don't they look stinkin' adorable!

Since we live in Idaho Falls...close enough to walk to the parade...well, that's just what we did!
Melanie and I loaded the little guys up and walked. It was a little chily but, it felt good! Burned some calories, got fresh air, and saved the environment a little bit by not driving!

Aydan at the parade!
Look at that COOL hair!
The little bud...waving his flag!
Grandpa Snyder and Aydan!
Cool pic of the helicopter!
The horses...I love them...they're so pretty!
Free CREAMIES all around!
This was my FAVORITE float! It says PROUD NOW with an American solider in her uniform and PROUD THEN with an American soldier in his uniform from back in the day!
It gave me goose bumps because where did that America go?
What happened to working hard for our country instead of taking it for granted?
What happened to working together towards something that we are proud of?
What happened to a society where everybody helps everybody out?
What happened to the pride in fighting for our RIGHTS and FREEDOMS?
Bring back the old America, and the old American way!!
Lets make it a country to be pround to live in again!!
Oh how I love our Aydan!
This is him imitating tricks that people were doing in the parade!
He thought he needed to be an entertainer too!
He also thought he would hand out chips and candy to people, just like the people that were handing out flyers and things in the parade!
Silly kid!
What a great memory!
After the parade we went to a BBQ at Uncle Bens' house! (Not really an Uncle...but pretty close! And an awesome family friend!)
After that the boys and I headed to Grandpa Polson's house for some good playin' time!
Here are all three of the oldest Polson boys playing the piano at the same time!
They sat there for quite awhile...entertaining themselves! So cute!
Dillon wore an AWESOME SHIRT....in support for his Uncle Justin!

"My Uncle Defends Freedom in the U.S. Army!"
After Grandpa's house we went home and did dinner and fireworks there!

Trace happy as can be!
KFC!
CUTE KIDS!
SPARKLERS!
Dad let Aydan help light a few fireworks! It made Aydan's day!




HAPPY BIRTHDAY AMERICA!

We Moved!

We Moved!
On June 30th!
Into my mom's old house!
(I'll post pics of that later!)

Bye Old House!
The kids had a blast playing in all the boxes!
All ready to go!
I got really good pics of each boy, just not in the same pic...so I posted both!
It took 3 loads, and an extra for the washer and dryer!
LOAD #1!
LOAD #2!
LOAD#3!
And in the midst of all the moving we had to try out PANDA EXPRESS!
On the last load both boys fell asleep in the car! So sweet! Aydan was such a dirt ball, but I didn't want to risk waking him...so I put him to bed....dirt ball and all! He woke up in the middle of the night and came into our room, and woke me up saying, "We don't sleep in our clothes, we sleep in jam jams!"
We love living here in Idaho Falls!
We love having a yard!
We love having a garage!
We love having so much stinkin' space!
We love it!
I'll post pics of our new place, as soon as I can!

A Brand New Nephew & Grandma Chris!

Here's Traceon chowin' down on some strawberrries in a mesh eater!
Making a HUGE mess!

He was covered after he was finished!
And not very happy!
Grandma Chris, Aunt Melanie, and Aunt Melaine's boyfriend Ryan came for the weekend for a fun visit!
Aydan figured out the poll!
Grandma bought Aydan a fun pom-pom animal making kit for something to do on a rainy day!
They made a turtle (Max) and a lion (Coocoup) (Aydan named them himself!)
Friday June 25, Garrett and Stephani had their little boy!
Collin Mckay Polson!
Isn't he sweet?
Meeting the little guy for the first time!
Here's the pround BIG BROTHER!
Cousin kisses! Aydan's such a sweetie pie!
