The Fourth!

The Fourth! Man, I love the Fourth of July. I love seeing everyone come together to celebrate such a wonderful place to live. I feel a joyous appreciation for all the many people who have worked and who continue to work and sacrifice to give us the peace and comforts of life we enjoy here in America. And you just can't beat the colors!
We got together with our friends and had such a fun time BBQing, eating yummy homemade ice cream (thanks Ben!), jumping on the trampoline, and watching fireworks.

The girls are waiting to be bounced up in the air by Bill, who is lying UNDER the trampoline. That guy is so creative! The kids laughed so hard!

A little ring-around-the-rosey action. Luke LOVES this game!

The girls are all waiting patiently for it to get dark so we could bring out the fireworks.

We topped off the holiday weekend with a picnic at Rock Canyon park yesterday. Such a fun park with lots of stuff to do. AND....we finally got a great picture of ALL THREE KIDS! I can die a happy woman. Look how happy they are!
