The Fourth of July *Fireworks*

Well, like everyone else we headed out and watched some fireworks on the 4th. We went with my friend Sarah and her boys. We parked our vehicles opened the back and munched on some popcorn and chocolate milk. The show was pretty weak sauce compared to others that we have seen but it pleased Ty and Carts so that is all that matters.

Canada Day and Fourth of July Party




Tyler sliding. I must have missed taking pictures of when Carter went down the slip and slide.


We had a few friends over to help celebrate Canada Day and the Fourth of July. We made Kabobs and everyone contributed by bringing a salad or dessert. There is alway way to much food! After we digested the yummies the kiddos brought out the slip and slide and the kids had a blast for a good hour or so getting wet and running around in a sprinkler.

4th (3rd) of July Breakfast




Our ward has a tradition of having a grand Fourth of July breakfast. It's a great breakfast filled with pancakes, bacon, eggs, and fruit. Mmm. It is delish! After everyone is done eating they have the kids do a Pinata. These are some shots of Tyler taking a crack at it.

More of Little Preston

This is me in the "waiting" area to see if I am really in labor. We got an Ipad from Jamie's work and it couldn't have come at a better time than when we were heading to the hospital to have a baby!

Little man's heart rate and on the bottom....yah those are contractions!



Bam! 7 pounds 15 ounces! That's a good size baby!

Look at those lips!

Baby is out!!!

I had the best nurse EVER! All day when I was laboring I was talking about food. What I was going to eat when it was all over and this sweet nurse of mine took pity on me and instead of bringing me this nasty meal that the hospital had been saving for me she "stole" some food from the doctors louge! Now if that isn't awesome I don't know what is. She brought me the worlds best ham sandwich, chips and coke. She rocks.

My first time holding him. I wasn't able to hold him right after delivery, I was shaking so bad! I don't know if it was from the epidural or what but I couldn't stop shaking!

Our 3rd little man. Holy cow I have 3 boys!




Not a happy Preston.

Tyler's first time seeing Preston.

Carterman!

Both Tyler and Carter were a little hesitant with little Preston at first. Tyler was amazed with how small his little feet were!

Tyler's first time holding Preston.

Carter's first time holding Preston. He wasn't sure how to feel about it and you can see it on his face.

Jamie and his boys. I love this picture!

Little Carts holding Baby Preston.

Jamie's mom and dad were able to be here for the birth and loved holding and loving on little Preston.

The boys did a lot of this...drinking chocolate milk...when they were at the hospital. It was good chocolate milk too!

We made it home safe and sound on the Friday late afternoon. It is always soo nice to get back home and sleep in your own bed and not be bothered by nurses and others when you are trying to sleep. A newborn is one thing but yeah home is a great place! Now I just need to get used to having 3 boys! It is going to be an adjustment but we'll do it!

A new member of the family



We got miss Allee tonight. She is the sweetest dog with the best temperament! The boys are in absolute love with her. She is very curious and spent the first 2 hours at home wondering around sniffing everything. The boys have wanted a dog for a long time and I finally caved! She is a great addition to our home and family!

Niagara Falls

We rode one of these down to the falls.

The kids loved it!


The first thing Tyler said when we saw the falls was "That's a lot of water!"


The Rainbow Bridge. We crossed this bridge to get to the States.

The falls. There were sooo many people there!


The American falls. Kinda lame compared to the Canadian horse shoe.

Trip to Animal Farm

On our way....

Feeding the ducks

Marg had a bag full of food for the animals and this goat couldn't wait it's turn.




There were a lot of signs says "don't feed the animals" "we bite". But we fed the animals anyway.

Missy and Noah






Look at those nasty teeth.

Feeding the lama.
