Jensen's 6th Birthday

 Happy 6th Birthday Jensen! 
We had a pool party, but it's been strangely cool in Baltimore lately so the water was pretty chilly.

 Ammon created another amazing birthday cake.  Bruce the shark!

 We used Jensen's old Halloween costume to make a pull-string pinata.

West Virginia with Olivia

Eating the fruits of their labors at the arcade.  Ya think those suckers are big enough?

Fly away Evy!

 Hill rolling.  The best sport in WV.

 Happy 31st Bday to the Mommy.

 Evy wake boarding with Daddy

 Nice grab Ammon

 Now the belly is really sticking out there.

 Go Papa on the knee board.

 Air Muscules

 It was a little bit cold for July.

 Everybody caught a few fish and we had a nice feast of blue gills, perch and sunfish for dinner.

 Happy 6th birthday Jensen a few days early!

Olivia's Visit to Baltimore!

 Yeah!  Cousin Olivia came to visit all the way from California.  She braved a red-eye plane ride all by herself just to come visit. 
We took her hiking to one of our favorite spots,

 Berry picking at one of our favorite farms,

spent LOTS of time in the pool,

 took her to the beach at Cape May,

 where we even got to see lots of dolphins

 and find pretty shells!

Then we took her to WV to visit Grandma and Papa Jensen.

July 4th Week in WV

 We spent the week of the 4th in WV.  Jensen got an early B-day present from Grandma and Papa.  Now he can be like Robin Hood!

 Lots of Trampoline time with Papa!  Mama doesn't jump these days.

 Attack of the Zombie Papa!

 Hiking at Cooper's Rock.  Our favorite place to explore!

Boating on Cheat Lake!  Go Grandma!

 Ryley, Jensen and Evelyn all went knee boarding.  The latter two with assistance from the Papa.

 Nobody could tell if Evy had fun or not.  She chose not reveal her emotions.

 Jensen made it very clear that he did not have fun and will never be going knee boarding again in his life.  (They hit a few rollers and took a good nose dive.)  He did, however, claim his bribe of one bag of Doritos afterward. 

 OK, so my belly sticks out a bit under that life jacket, but I still got it!

 Thanks for a good time Grandma and Papa!

 The rope swing is always a must.

 Jensen wouldn't get out of the water, so we just left him with the flag.

 Look at the monster catfish that Evy reeled in!

Morgantown Ward 4th of July bike parade.  Fancy bikes.

 The favorite part of the party was the slip-n-slide!

Fireworks on the driveway!  Little Pyromaniacs!
