Ryan has gobbled this summer up at her bouncy, fun age. At 3 years old she is swimming like a Texas fish. She is also keeping up with sisters, Utah aunts, and Idaho cousins. I'd say about the only thing she hasn't been up for is 4th of July fire works (don't have any pics of her burying her head in my armpit trying to escape the next bang). Here are some shots of her highlights:
Cooking with her oldest cousin and fellow blondie, Justine.
Playing at the campout with Carter--just 3 weeks age diff.
Quite the great story of Ryan bashing her head open after falling off the back of the couch in Grandma Kofoed's house. Just a routine riot with the cousins that ended painfully (it's amazing more don't really). To make a long story short, she won the nurse and doctor over so thoroughly that they gave me my own staple puller (well, actually a stapler too to practice with). "I think this pink looks kind of really beautiful on me."
Cousin Sam taught her all she needed to know about chicken catching and dunking!
You should have seen her rolling and braiding her own bread dough at the French Culinary doll party.
And yeah, this happened a lot too :)
