fireworks, family & friends

This year for the 4th we headed to Ga Ga and Papa's a day early to celebrate with them!  Cheers to the 4th from Target- ha!
We met my nephew's family at the pool and had so much fun!
Aren't lazy rivers just the best?
Kerigan and Lucy are 4 months apart- they are so sweet together!
Ga Ga had snacks for us on her porch afterwards
Ga Ga's snacks are some of Andrew's favorite things!  Ha!
After dinner we did sparklers and the kids had so much fun

Doing a little dance- Ha!

We love the 4th!
The 4th was the next morning so we all headed to the (extremely hot) parade downtown




After the parade we headed back home for our neighborhood celebration
She wanted a star in her hair so I attempted it

I love these two soooo much
She loves being my little model
We had a big neighborhood block party and it was so much fun!
Complete with water balloons, fireworks and tons of food!
We are so blessed to be part of such an amazing neighborhood
This was only a small fraction of the kids I caught for a picture
We grilled our own hot dogs and there were so many awesome sides to go with them!
It's not the 4th without watermelon, am I right?

Since our neighborhood backs up to the kids school, there's a baseball diamond right in our neighborhood too!  The kids had a blast playing.
More sparklers?  Yes, please!



This is Andrew's good buddy, Jack. They've been in the same class every year since we moved here.
goofy Andrew!
My sweet girl
Then they figured out they could light their sparklers in the fire pit!

Then they did snakes, which are always fascinating
As it got darker, the dads went out to shoot off fireworks at the baseball diamond. The kids loved this!



Happy July 4th!
