4th of July

What a better day to FINALLY post pictures from the 4th of July than on 9/11. A day that I will always remember and a day I will never forget. I thank God everyday for my life and for our freedom!

So the goal for this week is to try and get caught up on all blogs and pics...wish me luck!

We started the 4th of July at our neighborhood parade...the kids loved it!!!We had a fire engine come and spray the kids which our boys just loved. We then went to my best friends pool to spend the afternoon with her. After that we went home for naps...Our plan was to meet back up with her and go to the fireworks at Cherokee, but unfortunately the weather didn't cooperate, so we had our own little sparklers at our house. To our kids...fire is fire :)

So here we go....

At the parade and starting at 10 am with full on SUGAR popsicles :)



Then it was time for some water fun...



Then time for watermelon :) Lunch is not looking likely at this point!



We came home...dried off and got on our suits to head to the pool with my bestie and her kids!



Landon did not want his picture taken at the pool...Just so I remember for myself why I only have pictures of Dylan :)

That night we did sparklers at home since it was pouring rain...the boys loved them!!!







Then what would be a 4th of July without singing Happy Birthday to America... and having some MORE sugar...cupcake time!!!


DISCLAIMER :) Please ignore our singing :)




He is so stinking cute!!!
He was so proud of his tattoo...He was so upset when it rubbed off a few days later...God I hope he doesn't come home with a real one one day!

Happy Birthday America!!!
