The 24th, and a week in Beaver.

We went to beaver for the 24th. We started the day off at the parade. Kollin got so excited when the brought an army tanker out, he was kickin and wavin his arms like crazy, they even did a fake shot which scared Jaylie. When the drill team came down Jaylie could hear the music and started dancing and shaking her butt. At the end of the parade they bring out a big water truck to spray water, kids follow it all the way down the road. Jaylie Dancing
After the parade we went to the park for some fun. Kaitlyn was helping Jaylie jump. My nephew Kaysen in orange, and Braden in the back left side.
Jason took Jaylie down this big slide, you can't tell in the picture, but Jaylie was laughing so hard. Kollin sitting in his car seat watching fireworks. He's giving me an evil look, like mom why are you taking pictures of me. Jaylie wouldn't take a nap, so my brother took her for a ride in his GEO, she loves to ride in it especially when the top is down.
My mom got out the swimming pool and slip n' slide. Each of the kids got a big water balloon to play with. Jaylie called hers her baby.
Jaylie got into some stickers and put them on herself where they go. She even had a glove stuck on her hand.
Jaylie got this apron on and one of my mom pots and was pretending to cook some chocolate.

Kollin tired himself out and snuggled up to the side of the playpen.

So one morning we could hear a rooster and it was louder than usual so we walked outside to find it in the backyard. The kids thought it was pretty neat. They would try to sound like a rooster and that would only make it crow.
