HOORAY FOR DAD!

 We spent all of our extra pennies to get Josh home for the fourth of July. He got in late on Saturday the 27th of June, then stayed through the afternoon of the 4th. It was wonderful to have him with us for a whole week! The boys each got a day to pick an activity we did with Dad and we got to spend some good quality time with family too. We were so sad to send him back to Milwaukee for another two months but so glad for a week with him! 

Goodbye, Milwaukee!

HELLO, DAD!

Miles wanted Dad to be the first one
to help with his loose tooth. 



We got to celebrate Nana's birthday with her. 


Oliver picked the zoo as his activity. We got to 
go with Ty, Amanda, Izzy, Trev, and Nana too!

Trev and Oliver, you're both getting so big!

Looking hard for the animals that were hiding.

The traditional Lion picture.



Miles has got his posing down to an art! 

Over the moon to be with Dad!
Miles wanted to go on a hike up Cress Creek. We were able to make it happen on the same day! It was so much fun to go with family and splash in the water with Izzy. It was so much fun that Mom forgot to take pictures.  

Benji wanted to go to the Rexburg splash pad with cousins. We loved every minute of it! And Dad and Kate thoroughly enjoyed people watching together.

Happy day!

Kate and Daddy enjoying some sunshine!


Fireworks with cousins at Grandma and Grandpa's house is always a good time! 




Spike ball is a must. 



Oliver was VERY tired. 
The boys loved shooting off some
fireworks at Nana and Papa's house! 
A little out of order but Josh wiggled that
tooth all week long and was able to get it out for
Miles the night before he flew back to MKE.
His first lost tooth. 
He was so excited!
Miles was thrilled about his
dollar from the tooth fairy!

The 60th!

My Dad put together a big Fredrickson party for Grandma and Grandpa and their 60th wedding anniversary. Almost everyone was able to come and it was such a fun day with family that I haven't seen in years! I'm so grateful for such awesome grandparents and such an amazing family!

Sweet Grandma, Grandpa, and Aunt Edith
Scoots was a little unsure of 
all of the new people.

They're amazing! 
...I'm not sure how she eats with
all of those teeth missing. 


Lovely Livi

My Aunt Leann and cousin Ashlee

They're always having a good time!

Bubbles are always good entertainment.




I dared Foster to slip an ice cube down
his Daddy's shirt. This face let me know 
that he understood completely. 

It was so good to see my cousin Jeff!


That's a good group of men right there.






Missing a few, but loving the whole group!

I love my sweet kids! 

I sure love these grandparents of mine. 

We missed Taylor!
