Brian, Lindsay, Van, Brielle, & Mason: July 2015 (McCall Part 1)

We spent most of the month of July in McCall. We love McCall, it is paradise! We had a lot of fun while we were there and we got to see lots of family and friends.

We drove up the morning of July 4th so as soon as we got there we headed to the beach.

Toddler races! They did this over and over one night and I was laughing so hard! Neither one can run very fast and they both have a distinctive (hilarious) gait so it was SO funny to watch them race:) Brielle thought they were going really fast. Ha!

Book worms. All the kids loved reading all of Grandma and Grandpa's books. It's really fun that Van can read to Carson:)

My parents rented a pontoon boat one day and everyone had a blast, especially the kids.

Every time Amy and I buddy up on the tube it's a nonstop gigglefest:)

All of the kids LOVED Tyler and Brandee as usual. Aunt Brandee did Brielle's hair almost every day she was there and I love it. She is usually so resistant to getting her hair done so it was great to pass the torch for a while. Thanks Aunt Brandee:)

It was fun loving on everyone else's babies. Me and Skyler.

Captain Brielle got to drive the boat under Uncle Tyler's tutelage.

He may look nice in this picture but a few minutes, in the middle of our ride, he pushed me off! Nice husband!

We took all the kids out fishing one day and Brielle caught her first (and 2nd) fish ever! Van also caught 2 fish.

While she was one of the youngest kids fishing she was by far the most persistent and patient. She loved it!

First fish!!!

We helped stack wood one afternoon and all the kids helped. Brielle only helped a little but Van and Carson both hung in there for a while and carried some pretty big pieces. They are growing up too fast!

I guess it was a pretty exhausting day for this little one. Grandma was pushing her in the hammock and stepped away for a minute. I went to check on her and found her sound asleep:)
