here are some happy campers! our first camping trip of the summer...up at douglas fir campground. it is BEAUTIFUL up there. we got a site right on the river.
can't have a picture without the bunny ears...
this is the view from our campsite...
we drove up to picture lake & walked around...
...and of course had to have a snowball fight...in july!!!!
beautiful nooksack falls!!
yay for hot chocolate!!! a great trip! 
4th of july out at the likkel's! so much fun--& the kids had a blast (get it? blast--fireworks,--oh, never mind) anyways...aunt traci let bailee make her own "kool-aid" or should we just call it "sugar-aid"?! then, a picture of all the tired kiddos at the end....with one more grandma millie cookie for the road...
zach being a goof-ball...but notice the beautiful patio in the background...all done by hand by ryan & traci--it is GORGEOUS!!! 
then, i know this picture is REALLY blurry & bad, but i had to show it anyways. all of the kids are running to catch this big rocket that uncle darryl likkel lit off. it was really cool. but if you look real close, over to the right, in a light blue shirt, there is a REALLY BIG kid who was running like a mad-man, leaping over stuff, practically pushing kids aside, to get this stinkin' rocket. guess who that was?? yep, my oldest "kid", timmy. i'm not sure who got it, but boy, he definitely got an "A" for effort. i was just glad he didn't pull anything.
& this picture of mia--oh. my. word. this was sooooo much funnier in real life. by the end of the afternoon, after playing, & taking a dangerous "dip" in the water, & playing some more, our little mia was BEYOND tired. she was slap-happy-silly tired. she was drinking her juice box (smacking & slurping) & just giggling--all with her eyes closed...like, for 10 minutes!! we were all laughing so hard at her...& she just kept sucking on her straw & laughing...never once opening her eyes!! us fisher girls are all a little goofy, aren't we, mia?? haha!!! :) love you, sweet girl!
