4th of July

We had a fun 4th of July weekend - full of friends, family and fireworks.

We kicked off the weekend with a BBQ with some friends.

Elle was so excited to see "baby Taylor".


Gold cart rides were a favorite for the kids.



After the BBQ we headed to buy some fireworks!



And then shot some off when we got home.


Little dude was wiped out after his bath and ready for bed!


On Sunday we stayed home, played outside, took baths then made our fist batch of slime!


Ollie's showing off his muscles.


Slime time!


On the 3rd we headed to mom and dad's for a BBQ...


and some pool and bounce house fun!


It's funny watching the kids pair off now. Elle and Charlie play together so much better than they used to...their ages line up perfectly for imaginative play right now. 

And Henry and Oliver are obsessed with each other!


We stayed up late, shot off some fireworks and watched the fireworks display from mom and dad's house.




After our late night it was hard to drag ourselves out of bed early for the parade but we did it!


Breakfast while waiting for the parade to start!


He loved waving at the floats. :)


It was a HOT morning. My poor girl takes after me and doesn't handle the heat well.
One float was handing out popsicles and it was just what she needed.




After the parade he crashed hard!
We were all hot and exhausted.


After showers and naps we headed back to my parents house for night 2 of fireworks and we walked to the fair to let the kids ride some rides.


Hold on tight Doodle Man!!



After the fair we walked back, shot off more fireworks and had another late night.
One thing we did miss this year was Henry's annual glow-stick party! I can't believe we forgot!!
We will have to make up for it next year. :)
