Isaac and Sawyer

Kylee has 2 imaginary friends, Isaac and Sawyer. In real life Isaac is my cousin's 6 year old son, and Sawyer is a 7 yr old boy she met once at an Easter egg hunt. In Kylee's world they are her best friends that live here with us. Sometimes they are average size boys. Sometimes they are so tiny that she has to carry them in the palm of her hand. Some days they accompany us when we go out. Today they stayed home to let the dogs out. They are always older than Kylee and therefore allowed to have things she is not. Most of the time they are good boys, but they have been known to make mischief.... of one kind or another. :P

Fourth of July

Our Independence Day wasn't as eventful this year as last, but it was fabulous! We spent most of the day at Aunt Patty's house. We couldn't actually cook out due to the rain, but Uncle Mike pulled his grill inside his garage and grilled some excellent hamburgers and hot dogs.

Since it was hot out and wasn't lighting, I let Kylee put on her swimsuit and play in the rain. She had a blast, and I had a lot of fun just watching her.

It started to get a little cooler later in the afternoon; so, Kylee warmed up in the hot tub with Stacey and Dale.

Kylee fell to sleep on the way home (woohoo!). When she woke up from her nap we made fireworks paintings.

We didn't buy any fireworks, but we got lucky. Someone shot off a ton at the park around the corner. The girls and I watched a pretty good display from the front yard. After that it was baths and then bedtime as usual. All and all it was an awesome day.
