First came Father's Day! It has been so fun to watch Marcus as a daddy. He is such an amazing dad. There is no questioning how much he loves Bryker, or how much Bryker loves him! For a while I thought Marcus was going to have to stop passing the sacrament because Bryker would distract the whole back half of the chapel with his (loud) desire to have his daddy. I love my boys, I cannot imagine what I ever did without them!
My two boys on Father's Day! Unfortunately Bryker blinked in every picture so this is the best I've got.
I seriously love these two! Bryker's Jammies were wet when he woke up so we put him in a matching shirt with his dad for breakfast. Best buds forever right here!
Months of preparation and a five hour test later (which meant 5 hours of stressing for me and our moms!), Marcus is done with the MCAT! What a relief it is to have that over with! Now we get to play the waiting game; at least 30 days from the day he took the test until we find out his score. Meanwhile we have been filling out applications. Who knew deciding where to apply could be such a task! While the unknown is always a little unnerving it has been fun to look up the schools together and think about where the adventure of medical school might take us.
With the MCAT out of the way we were able to do some "Spring" cleaning. It has been needing to happen for a long time! Fortunately we had a cute helper!
Trying on Dad's crazy hat!
He's finally big enough for his baseball hat, and to our surprise, he LOVES it!
Sitting in the top of our closet, and yes...that's my leaning tower of pants :/ hence the need for Spring cleaning!!
We took Bryker swimming for the first time! He had fun!
Loved the slide, even though the water on it was freezing!
Next was my Birthday! The three of us spent my birthday doing things that Bryker would enjoy, and to be completely honest I didn't mind at all. It was awesome to just spend the day as a family. We forgot to bring the camera to all of our activities, so bear with the poor quality of these next few pictures!
Started out the morning with a yummy breakfast made by cute Marcus!

| Mini golfing! Bryker helped Marcus with a hole and they got a hole in one! He also insisted on carrying one of the balls so we had to take turns putting with the other one; good thing he's cute! |
Costa Vida in the park for dinner! Then off to Mckee's petting zoo!
Marcus was sweet enough to put Bryker to bed so that I could have a quick girl's night to finish off my birthday. It was so fun! I have the best husband!
Showing off his big muscles in Nana's pool
Big slip n' slide with the Thiemann's!
Finally, Independence Day! Nothing like celebrating the Fourth of July with a parade, two barbecues, fireworks with cousins and (attempting to watch) "The Biggest Show in Idaho."
Here's Bryker and Papa at the parade! It was long and hot.
Sparklers! First time he's seen them and not sure what to think!
Sitting on a mountain waiting for fireworks.
Unfortunately the show was delayed due to wind and didn't start until after we gave up and went home!
We did manage to see a few from our apartment though, so at least Bryker got a taste of what fireworks are!
We're really glad that the weather has finally warmed up (maybe even a little too warm) so we can enjoy the outdoors! I think I'm going to be brave enough for us to go camping at least once this summer! Bryker hasn't ever been so it will be an adventure!
Sorry for all of the pictures, I tried to be selective but it's hard when you have the cutest boys in the world :) I am definitely the luckiest girl ever!
