The 4th

This year on the 4th Brett was actually home so we got the chance to do normal 4th of July things like watch the parade. It was crazy people allowing their kids to run in the street to get candy. I thought someone was going to die!! Maycee is protecting Bostin, too cute :)

This is the treat I made for Bretts kesler Family reunion!! I know Martha right ;)
Then we stayed at the Hilton on the river, with Bretts reward points, one good thing about him traveling soo much :) The fire works were amazing as usual! Maycee is missing in this pic because my parents took her to Hannah Montana. She loved it.

Ripken 9 mon.

Ripken is Nine months & I wanted to put on some pics of him. Well I realized i haven't taken any... by the third child it is a rare occasion that we get out the camera just for him. He is usually sleeping or in the background just being happy. So I though this video would have to do.

Ripken is getting so big but is not that motivated to crawl. He just sits there and lets his brother and sister bring him things he wants. He talks all the time he says , momma, dad, nana, kuh kuh, num num, oah oww (when he drops things) , and trista thinks he can say her name tee tah :) He claps, puts his arms up when you say sooo Big, and waves night night at bed time. One thing he does that none of our other kids have done is he cries if I am in the room & not holding him. Brett can be right next to me and holding him and if I dont pick him up he wont stop crying. Needless to say my arms are super strong (one good thing);) We love him and are so thankful he is the best baby ever.

summer fun

So Trista and i decided we needed to have a water slide, the babes loved it
& so did the neighbors
Fishing in the canal with our cousins
watching Mackay play T-Ball
Crusin the town
Playing dress up (Matt is such a good friend)
Cabelas in Boise
The kids were so excited to see their cousin, six weeks was way too long!! After we flew in to boise Maycee said, today is the best day of my life I get to see, nani, grandpa, Jaymie and most of all my cousins.

New England Aquarium

So Brett was out of town again, so to keep me & the kids happy we hit the town.  We went to the aquarium it was pretty cool.  Not as cool as Baltimore but entertaining all the same. 

Our friends Caden Louder & Nash Humphreys joined us (& their moms too)

The kids loved the penguins best

The aquarium is right down town in the harbor

Right when you walk in the whole main floor is surrounded by penguins 

In the middle is this huge 5 story fish tank, with BIg fish, sharks, sting rays, and giant turtles  

The kids liked the kids exploration center where they could touch everything.  Like star fish, crabs, clams, and ext.  All in all it was a super fun trip.  After we started walking around but it was 100 degrees so that didn't last to long.  Way TOO HOT!!!  But I hear we will be cooling down.  We fly to Bosie this weekend to watch my little sis in the Miss Idaho Pageant. It was snowing in Idaho today :( that will be a big change. 

A New Trick!

Look what Ripken just learned to do! He is getting to big.  He also can do sooo big and wave but it would take a small miracle to get all his tricks on one video.  So Trista here you go the video you requested. (Fam 4 days till I get to see you all)!!!!!!!!!!!!! yeah !!!!!!!!!! :) :) :) :) Can you tell I am excited :) !!!!!!!!!!

Jaymie Pentelute

Jaymie,  Good luck at Miss Idaho!!!!  We are sooo proud of you and the amazing person you are, through all the great things you have accomplished, and people you have touched.  You have such a big heart, and are as pretty on the outside as you are on the inside.  If people win for putting forth the most effort than i know you have this in the bag! ;) Just remember YOU ARE THE BOMB!!  I wish i was 1/2 as hot as you in a swimsuit..... if you got it flaunt it.

Fenway Park

Lots of Pics only a family member would enjoy!! :)

Last night we took the kids to a Red Sox game.  It was super fun, the kids loved it.  We sat right behind the dugout, the kids each got a ball including our biggest kid Brett:).  It was a memory I think they will all ways remember. Let's go Red Sox!!!! (to bad they lost, big time) But at least the last game we went to was the no hitter!!
