What a summer we've had! With 2 babies on the way (soon!) we decided to live it up this summer and try to pack in as much as we could.
We started off our July adventures by heading to Tri-Cities for a short weekend. It was HOT there (well over 100 degrees) so we headed to the pool.
Mitch loved the water!
Here he is "swimming" (or kicking his legs).
Chloe had just completed swimming lessons that same day, so she was very excited to try out her new found swimming skills. Her cousin Stella had also just finished a round of swimming lessons.
Ben decided to teach her how to dive and she had no fear. She caught on quickly and for her first day, she did really well.
Here she is in action!
All 8 Andros cousins together for the first time.
On the 4th of July, we started the day off at at Parade. The kids loved seeing the horses and floats and loved getting candy, but it was SO HOT!
That afternoon, Ben's cousin got married and Chloe and Stella were flower girls.
A fun job for 2 very pretty girls!
Then off to Burley we went! The kids enjoyed the DVD player, and Mitch pulled his usual trick of sleeping less than an hour for a 10 hour trip!
We headed up to our favorite camping place in Idaho- Lake Cleveland. The snow wasn't even all melted off the mountain, so it was a freezing camping trip, but that didn't stop either of the kids from jumping into the lake and not even blinking an eye.
Mitch enjoyed rowing in Daddy's Pontoon boat.....
and fishing for the first time!
We camped one night and it was a long, rocky and uncomfortable night for the pregnant mom. But morning came (I really thought it never would) and I had survived. I dedicated that night to my nature loving husband and daughter.

I wish I could handle the cold water as well as Chloe does! Maybe you should consider building a pool in your huge backyard!
