Happy 4th of July

We watched Sun City's fireworks presentation last night, so we were lucky enough to just spend a relaxing evening at home before doing our own fireworks outside with our neighbors.









Our "All American" kids!





The kids will only humor me for so long with nice picture poses before things start to go downhill!

Tate




I was so excited to have this cute fireworks shirt and headband for Holly! We searched high and low for this headband which had been missing all day. Finally....Tate confessed that he had accidentally broken it earlier. He said that he didn't want me to be mad or Holly to be sad, so he figured that if he put it under the couch then we might just forget about it. After a long talk about honesty and some quick work with the glue gun, Holly was ready to look cute in her festive headband again.




Patriotic baby





Carson loved the sparklers







Eric and I had decided that the kids would just play outside with the neighbor kids and we would not spend any money on fireworks this year. Well, at about 8 o'clock, just as the sun was starting to go down, Eric started to second guess that decision. So at the very last minute, I drove over to a fireworks stand just down the street and picked up a few fireworks for us after all. We were so glad that I did because the kids really liked them and we all had a really fun evening!
