The whole month of June and some before and after!

I have to apologize for how long it took to update our blog. We have been all over the place the last month and I have been sick for the last couple weeks so I wasn't feeling up to doing much. Anyway, it is here now and that is what is important right? So we start this post with pictures from our Memorial Day camping trip. We had a blast camping with our friends the Valdez family and the Swanson family. The boys thoroughly enjoyed getting super dirty and running free in around the forest. Curtis got to shoot some fun guns and obviously has the mark to show for it. It was a great trip. Then Grandma Birdno came into town to watch the boys while I went off to Young Women's camp. They had a ball with her while I was away. Curtis thought I had the camera so there are no pictures of their week together but it was eventful. I had a blast at camp and was so excited to see my boys at the end of the week. They picked me up at camp and we headed straight for Arizona and the Birdno family reunion. That is what I am calling it anyway. We hadn't seen Curtis' sister Michelle and her family for 3 and 1/2 years so it was a reunion to me. I was sick that week so I really didn't get many pictures so I am sorry about that but we did get family pictures while we were there. The boys played outside all day with their cousins and we played pitch, I made jewelry, Curtis made some pens, we went on several outings, and overall just enjoyed being together as a family. Thanks Mom and Dad for everything it was great. This weekend was the 4th and we went to the Falcon Freedom Days for a bit and Vance learned how to stack cups. It was really hot so we didn't stay long but we did enjoy some fun family fireworks on Saturday and a BBQ with friends on Sunday. It has been a very busy month and hopefully we can keep up to date a little better before the baby comes in 6 weeks or less. Crazy! Anyway enjoy our pictures.
