Happy 4th of July!!!!

I love the 4th of July. It the summer version of Christmas. We had such a good time. we went down to Prove to My uncle Dales house, had a big BBQ and let the kids run around and swim. It reminded me of the good old days when I was little and we would always go to prove where my grandparents lived and go to the parade. I haven't been to that parade in years. I wish it wasn't so crowded, I really miss that part. I think we will have to make it to a parade for the 24th.
I think the kids get just excited that they get to stay up late and watch fire works as they do to open presents on Christmas morning. They are even willing to take a nap in the middle of the day so I will let them stay up late. I don't know if they actually slept but they stayed in their rooms and were quiet for an hour which was good enough for me.



Davis was so darling. he had a really late nap so I even let him stay up and watch the fire work show. he had so much fun. the first few he was a little scared, but he warmed up quickly. I just thought he was so cute he just snuggled up next to the kids and quietly watched the show.
