The Baby.

Around the house with this little love. 

 I was right next to her and she picked up C's phone and I had to get a picture. Copycat.

 She LOVES Levi. She says All. The. Time. Dadddeeeeeee


 We were picking berries in the garden and the neighbor came out so Levi went to get his handgun, but his truck was locked so he got another one.... we laughed at how ridiculous you can look picking berries in your garden with a baby ..... and such a large accessory. This dog has attacked our family 11 times now. It has been such an issue since last year, sending Bella to the emergency room. I hope and pray often that it dies. I hate not being able to be on our own land without being scared of this dog.

Strawberries

Took the kids to the strawberry farm that is just down the road, and it was a hit. We typically drive about an hour to another one but I noticed the sign on my way to Coraline's violin lesson, so we gave it a try. We even ran into some familiar faces while there.

Caving









Levi took Clairana and Nephi on a crazy adventure! They went to Kentucky and did extreme caving. Nephi was the youngest one they had ever taken on the trip. These are some of the pictures they took. 
It was so great for the kids to have one on one time with Levi and him to have a long weekend in the middle of summer! Some of the caves included swimming in really tight spaces. Levi said he was even nervous and was very proud of N & C. 

It was planned last minute as Levi didn't know if he really would be able to go and it worked out amazingly. They found a festival with lots of experts.
