K minus 3 {and my free dress}

[deep breath] I have had such relaxing week! My 2 boys went to stay with my in-laws and Preslie went to Girl Scout camp. What do you do when you're minus 3 kids? Anything you want, that's what.
I finished sewing a dress that I wore to church today. I have had this orange spotted fabric for. ev. er. (like 10+ years) It had fun navy blue stripes at the bottom and I've always loved it but never knew what to do with it until inspiration struck and I made a boxy top dress with elastic waist. I did not have a pattern so it isn't perfect but kinda fun for an experiment. I cut out the pieces so the blue stripe would be at the neckline and across the bottom of the skirt. What do you think?

Dax and I took Quinn camping Friday night. It was mostly blissful!

We fed some birds bread and grapes. They got to where they'd eat out of our hand.

Other stuff we've done recently:

Mack's primary class had a bike wash party. SO cool.

 Check this thing out...

 His teachers had made all these ice cold yummies for the kids and they all had a blast.

We had a fun reunion with Dax's family at Heber Valley camp.

We celebrated Quinn's 2nd birthday- We adore our little sweetheart!

We checked in on my Mom as she was recovering from having her gallbladder removed. Quinn took the liberty of feeding my bro's dog his food one piece at a time.

Other summer haps:

I have still been faithfully running a few times/week. One particular morning, I was {trying} to sleep through my alarm but decided I'd rather be anywhere than in my bed between these two...

My morning run was less torture than those two kicking feet.

 We had a great 4th of July. Mack was in HEAVEN. He waved and smiled at everything and everyone that passed in the parade. Even after the parade was over, he still kept smiling a waving at the cars driving home thinking he could get more candy.

And these pics are making me miss my boys...

A great summer so far...and tons more fun to come!
