We had a wonderful 4th of July this year! We had some friends over for a barbecue, watched the baseball game, then went to the park a few blocks from my house to see the fireworks (I was a little worried it would be really hot, but was pleasantly surprised when the weather was absolutely beautiful with a nice breeze). We took popsicles and icecream bars with us to the park and laid down on my favorite picnic blanket while the kids ran around in the field before the show. Mikayla loved the fireworks and kept trying to walk towards them...thinking that she would be able to reach right out and grab one. It was so nice and relaxing. We were able to sit back and reflect on what a wonderful country we live in and all the sacrifices that have been made for the life and freedom we have today.

It looks like you had a fun and relaxing 4th. I remember when Isaac did that when he was about Mikalya's age. I thought it was too cute!
Fun 4th
Awesome! Nathan didn't like the fireworks. He cried through the whole thing! Of course, ours were feet away not miles. He was scared to death of the colors in the sky and the LOUD banging. Good golly Mikayla is soooo cute!!!
Joe says, Dad needs a hair cut and we need to hang out!
This is Dad, Liz showed me your blog, which I didn't know about before now, and it is really cute. I loved the July 4th story and think it was really neat. Mikayla is so cute. I wish I could just hold her and give her a hug. I miss you all so very much.
