Last summer we spent our first time at Grandpa's cabin in Torreon with our best friends, the Frigards. This year we were fortunate to have the opportunity again...this time for the 4th of July! It's becoming a little tradition, one which we love so much. Kendra and I pack up all five girls in the swagger wagon (i.e. the Frigard minivan) and head up early in the morning, stopping for a picnic lunch and ice cream in Payson. Then the daddies follow after they get off of work!
It was pouring rain upon our arrival (Hallelujah!), just like last year.
You would think these children have never seen the rain..
well, it is a rare sight!
best buddies!
Watching morning cartoons.
For the 4th, we hit the town parade...which was a ton of fun and we had the best spot at the beginning of the parade route! (nice photobomb!)
A rare shot of the mommies!
Ali was guarding all of the parade loot! It looked like Halloween in the back of our car.
More candy!
A memorial "float" for the Hot Shots. :(
Lame attempt at a picture with my girl. lol
one, two, three, four, five....yep, they're all there!
(what Kendra and I find ourselves saying 137 times/day).
This is how they fell asleep the last night we were there. Both girls insisted/cried/screamed/whined that they wanted to sleep with mommy and daddy. It was storming and I think the excitement of the trip wore them down. Imagine Brendon and I scratching our heads...."ummm, where are WE going to sleep??" Answer: Mommy snuggled on the end and Daddy on the floor. Good man. ;)
