Other July Stuff

A few other things happened in July. One of those being the birthday of my super sexy husband. He entered into his 36th year this year. To celebrate, Tyler went fishing for lobster pretty much every day that week. We didn't mind him leaving us though because he brought these home for us to enjoy:

On Ty's actual birthday, the kids made him some cards...

He made himself some of his favorite breakfast (sorry honey)

Opening Gift (yes people, just one but look how excited he was about it)

If you are curious about what it was, we gave him a temporary Utah fishing license and a day off of fathering and husbanding to go fly fishing with his brother (we were going camping in Utah the following week)

Owen helped me make Ty's favorite cake and then we headed to our favorite pizza place,

Yummy.
We didn't plan a party or anything but were super excited because the day before his birthday I read on facebook that one of our really good friends was going to be in West Palm Beach (about 45 minutes away) for work on Tyler's birthday. We invited him over that night so after dinner we cruised home to hang out with him.

 YAY! We love you Scott!

We did some other stuff in July... things like:
The museum (we spend a lot of time at this place)

Owen was VERY impressed with Tyler's superhero strength. This kid wants to grow up to be just like his dad.

 Free mall activities:

 I really can't get enough of this face. Don't you just want to kiss those cheeks? I do, all day long.

And this face. I can't get enough of it either. 

 Owen's buddies Mason and Tanner showing off their graham cracker house (lookin good Mason!)

They do this every other Wednesday at our mall. Crafts, face painting, storytime, dancing and snacks and guess what... it's all FREE. Yes, FREE! We love it.

We spent some time at the beach:

We also did some boating:

 Where we also celebrated Tyler's birthday (Thanks Kenz for being so cute and bringing a birthday cupcake along for the ride!)

One last thing that happened in July; Our ward decided to do a pioneer celebration one Saturday afternoon. They had a ton of pioneer games for people to play:

 This guy wasn't actually playing a game. He was helping set one up. I thought for sure he was going to fall to his death or at least break an arm. But no... he is a really good climber. I mean really, look at him cling to that tree. Impressive,

Good friends:

This is one of Owen's best buddies, Tanner.

And a giant fire pit to cook the chicken, beans, bread

and Iguana.

 Even Collette wanted to try it out. She loved it.

I don't know that there is any proof that the pioneers actually ate iguana but that's how we do things down here is South Florida.

Wowza this post is long. Sorry for that but since it's September tomorrow I figured I should probably get July all blogged about. Next stop... August!
