Summer

It's been a while so I thought I would just put up a bunch of pictures of what we've been up to this summer.

Carson was busy helping Grandpa build some shelves in his bedroom
We headed to Grandma Farmer's house in Arco for Memorial day weekend
Declan had his first birthday on June 7th
and his first ice cream cake. He wasn't a fan. Too cold...
Chase left for basic training, Dwight (Tyler's dad) is heading to Afghanistan in a couple of weeks, and Tyler was placed on rear detatchment, so although he will be on active duty, he will be staying right here, and lets just say I was thrilled. Chase also just received his mission call to the Dominican Republic, Santiago mission. He leaves Nov 16 so he won't be home from basic long before he heads out again. Couldn't be happier for him, he's going to be an awesome missionary.
Tyler and some of the other men in his unit helped with a fundraiser at the Relay for Life in Rexburg in the Sexy Legs contest. The won beating out all of the police officers and fire fighters. That is Tyler doing the toe touch :D
We did the parade and everything on the 4th of July. I forgot to take many pictures but got some of us starting out our day.
We've been to the Splash Park in Rexburg (and holy crap is that place crazy)
And we've done a few trips to the zoo...
Carson met the Pig at Famous Dave's and terrorized him. He loved him and kept saying, "Hey little pig, do (insert random action here)". It was funny, poor guy.
Carson started swimming lessons and is doing awesome. He loves just sticking his entire face under the water. He is the closest one standing on the edge of the pool. The teacher told him he was like a fish and he had to correct her saying he wasn't a fish, he was a big scary shark.
Declan has started walking which is a relief because he weighs 24 lbs and is a load to haul around. And well, after all that we are pooped. Hopefully it won't be so long until next time. Night!
