Fourth of July Olympics

On a rare year, the Edwards clan all got to spend fourth of July together. We hung out at Kurt and Steph’s house, which gave our girls the perfect opportunity to spend the day planning the first Edwards’ Olympics. Here are the Olympic organizers:

It was one of those things that at first none of the adults really wanted to do. But it actually turned out really fun. Especially for me, who couldn’t participate due to taking on the job of photographer. They had us get into partners, name our teams (such as North Korea, Canada,  or “Old and Older”) and compete in different events: three-legged race, Fill the bucket, and hula hoop relay. We received points for how well we did.

 

At the end, “The Supers” were victorious (Alice and Cory). There may have been a little trash-talking.

 

Super fun, as was the rest of the evening:)

Love seeing big fireworks from the backyard.

Addison’s big show

June 4, Addison finished a fun semester of Little Gym. Just for fun, let’s compare all my girls at the same age (4) doing little gym:

How much do Symantha and Addison look alike??  Such fun memories of each of them. We love Little Gym.

Here are some pics of Addi’s big show:

Memorial Day… a couple months later

I just loved some of these pictures, so wanted to do some backtracking.  A few days in Cle Elum relaxing, a good time as always. The mosquitos were pretty bad though, so Addison’s eye was almost swelled shut by the second day. Sad, but still cute:)

Check out the size of that leaf she found!

July ten on ten

Busy day today. Symantha’s birthday party was tonight, and it’s still going strong at 12:30am (although everyone is in sleeping bags and it will be over soon… hopefully:)) The little girls went to hang out with Nana for a few hours and now are camping out in our bedroom. Today also included some early runs of the new zipline, which is pretty fun.

Here is our day in pics.

I love summer and being able to have a party on a Tuesday

More ten on ten fun HERE
