Celebrating the 4th of July!

We love the 4th of July! It was really laid back this year. We stayed home and just hung out all day with the family. We sure missed having the big family get togethers like we did back home , but it was still a very nice relaxing day. The kids had fun.
All dressed in Red, White and Blue and playing in the fountain at our Apartments



We had BBQ and Ice Cream Sandwiches, Yum!

Sparklers and Firecrackers


Watching Fireworks from our deck. Gotta be honest, we could barely see them but the kids sure loved being outside at night. In fact they were more entertained by the fireflies than the fireworks. But hey, whatever makes them happy, right?

Heidi we wish we could all be together for the 4th also! The kids were so cute decked out in their 4th of July attire, red, white, and blue. It looked like they were having the time of their lives. I will have to put up some of the kids with sparklers also. Oh by the way everyone says hi and they love and miss you! We miss you!

The kids look so cute in their red white and blue. I wish we could have watched fireflies, I don't think I've ever seen one. We ordered Tyson's Bday gift and it was shipped today. It says it will be there tommorow. You can just hang on to it until his birthday or you can give it to him if he really wants. It shipped a little earlier than expected!
Love and miss you all!
