Swimming with the cousins

Parker is too brave this year... thinks she can just do whatever the big kids do!

Kylie

Hayden and Katelyn floating

Kate just had to wear Hayden's goggles

Who knew a float could be used OUTSIDE of the water too?!?!?!

Katelyn has become quite the little fish this year!

Best friends

Sweet Phoebe.... Hayden just loves this dog.  He lays on her and he tackles her she takes it all.  She's such a good dog (well, except for her excitability when people come over.. haha)  Hayden was playing with her the other day and asked me to take their picture.  He said she is his best friend (-:

Missing those McKnight girls

Hayden sure does miss our old neighbors (and his Mommy does too)!  He's so excited when we get to meet up for a playdate.  This one took us to Jump for Joy and Hayden, Emma & Ella played and played and played while Tara and I got to catch up.  It was such a fun time!  I snapped a few pics before we left.  Love those sweet (and maybe a little crazy) McKnight girls!

Hayden & Emma (when did they get so big!?!?!?)

Silly faces

Not sure why Hayden is holding his tongue (haha) but what a cute picture of these 2!

Fun at Castaway Cove

We don't go to Castaway alot (mainly b/c it's expensive - Hayden has to pay for a Junior Admission now that he's over 42"!)  We usually go to the CC pool for free or the IP splash park b/c it's only $3 to get in.  But, Mommy caved a few times this summer and we went.  Hayden loves to ride the tube slides now that he's tall enough and float in the lazy river and Parker had a great time playing in the fountains.  Here's a few pics from one of our Castaway days.   

Big Girl

Parker isn't a baby anymore!  She's into everything and really enjoys using Hayden's Pottery Barn chair.  She loves to climb on it (and usually tips it over backwards) as well as use it to reach things she shouldn't be touching.  haha  Here's a few pics of our big girl in brother's chair.

Carson

We just love Carson.  Camie and Jeff came in town before their trip to Colorado and needed to run some errands so Carson came over to play.  Hayden and Carson don't see each other nearly enough since Carson and his family live in Denton but they always have so much fun! 

Busy 4th of July!

I love the Fourth of July - such a great holiday to spend with family and friends! 

Hayden mastered the diving board at the CC pool

Sweet cousins enjoying cheetos at the CC pool

Hayden decked out his bike for Mrs. Connie's 4th of July parade

The big parade

Parker dressed in her red, white and blue too

The Jones family always throws a great 4th of July swim party - cute kiddos in their super soft lifejackets!

The 4th wouldn't be complete without snowcones at Mia & Jimmy's!
