Ow-Siiide?

No doubt, this is the BEST SUMMER we have ever had.

Having a kiddo gets us outside enjoying the sun and we have been loving the outdoors!

Every day, without fail, Drake points to the door and says "Ow-Siiide?" with his cute little head tilted to the side and the most begging eyes.

It's hard to get anything done, I tell ya!

On the up-side- this is the tannest I have been in years!

Some of our outside adventures-

After our Hunsaker reunion, the Hunsaker girls stayed for another week with their families.

One day last week, I met up with Tina at the Brigham pool and the kids had a great time playing together and going down the slide.

Mary & Lucy

 I think Drake looks like Franklin the turtle in his get-up.

 Emma getting soaked.

 My fearless water-boy.

 Another day, all of us headed out to the Whites Valley farm for 4-wheeling and roasting hot-dogs.
Drake couldn't get enough of the 4-wheelers and neither could Sasha!

The wide open space is just beautiful.

 We sure miss having so much family around!

Yesterday, we were so lucky to go to the Brigham pool again! (It's definitely our fave place this summer)

We met up with Amy Merrell and sweet Lucee who are here visiting from China.

 Drake thought Lucee was so funny and would laugh at her...and also try to splash her. He didn't quite get it.

 Amy got these great pictures of Drake- this kid is crazy at the pool! I'm so happy that he loves water so much.

 Lucee is such a doll and we sure loved spending time with them! Thanks Amy!

 (Amy, I copied and pasted these off your blog and when I enlarge them, they are grainy. Could you send these pics to me via email so I can upload the higher quality ones? Thanks!)

Definitely the all-time greatest INSIDE thing we have done this summer was going to 

HARRY POTTER!

Here are us crazy gals fighting off Voldemort with our "wands"!

Could the quality of this picture be any better? I mean really! (Remember the flash on my camera is broken)

I am such a serious Harry Potter fan. Love the books, movies, characters, and every tiny thing about Harry Potter, to the point of nerdiness really. I like to believe that somewhere out there, they really do exist and don't try to tell me otherwise.

Harry Potter was so good and deserves it's own post, but I'll just stop blabbing and say I loved it and cried through the whole thing.
 (Did anyone else find a lot of religious meaning in this last movie?)

Hope you are enjoying the sun!!!
