small SUMMER joys!

Tyce took his FIRST STEPS this week (towards licorice)

...on his FIRST camping trip ever to the Clark Fork River for 4th of July week. :) I wish I took a picture, but that kid was constantly covered in dirt and/or sand, and we still couldn't wipe the smile from his face...
It was a FAB week of intense rafting, cliff jumping and time with ALL of Brynne's siblings and parents.

Jay learned to buckle his own big boy seatbelt!

Cade had his FIRST baseball game and had 2 hits from the coach-pitch and 1 off the tee! He also had one play to first!

Silver had her first SWIM and could not get enough of the water. She got heat exhaustion on the trip because she had 2 days straight of 3 hours straight of fetch (thanks to all the little cousins) into the river without drinking enough. We had to nurse her back to health with gatorade and hose-downs.

We have also enjoyed Silverwood and Corbin Park beach (on the river here in Post Falls) a couple of times already.

Can't wait to see what else summer brings!
