Fourth of July

In the morning we headed to our city parade. We were the very first people on the route and scored a lot of goodies!

For the Fourth of July we had an impromptu barbecue at our house with the McCombers, Allens, and Zirkers. The kids ran wild having water balloon fights, swimming in the hot tub, and playing on the slip and slide.

The boys, I mean men, lit off fireworks for literally 3 hours. We had babies falling asleep everywhere. We had them under tables, on couches, and every room in my house. All of us moms were a little nervous watching at what to seemed to be chaos as they let the kids help them light fireworks. We finally put a stop to it after John was helping Aus shoot a roman candle and Aus thought it was finished and turned towards the house and shot one last spark in our direction.

Game over. From then on just the dads were in charge.
