The 4th

Since we have been running here and there doing this and that and we have so much more going on in the next few weeks, we decided to just relax and enjoy the holiday together. After I gave the boys haircuts in the morning we headed down to the park to see what was going on there. We had some watermelon and tried to spit the seeds as far as we could.
We listened to some AWFUL karaoke! But the baby seemed to enjoy the music because she was dancing around in my belly like crazy.

We also played a few games and won some free food coupons.


After the park we came home and cooled off on the slide. We spent the rest of the afternoon playing in the water and had some friends stop by off and on as the afternoon wore on. I made some awesome hamburgers for dinner and then we settled the girls in to watch a movie while Jeff and I cleaned up from the day. The girls had sacked out by 9 so they missed the fireworks so we went out with Ryan about 9:30 to sit on the porch and wait for the show to start. Ryan fell asleep on Jeffs shoulders about halfway through all the fireworks. After that we headed to bed but there was no sleep to be had since the whole neighborhood kept celebrating with their own fireworks way into the night. It was a fun relaxing holiday and now we are getting ready for the crazy runaround again!

Ya know, you really are lucky to be able to watch the fireworks form your house. I bet it was so nice, cozy and relaxing on your front porch. I can just imagine it now.
