4th of July Fun

We had a very busy and fun 4th of July.

We started off with a parade.

My firecrackers!

Ready to watch.

Their favorite part was petting a horse at the end.

We continued our fun at a pool party.

Ready to watch the fireworks with friends.

Sparkler fun to end the day.

Summer Break: Week 4

We did some sleeping in. Thankful for no alarm clocks.

Created our own car wash.

Being silly with pipe cleaner hats.

Checked out a sprinkler park.

Played with friends we don't see often.

We started a playgroup when our oldest were babies. Now both of us have three kids.

Trip to Garner

We recently took a trip to Garner with some of our neighborhood friends. It was definitely an adventure and minus a few hiccups we had a blast.

All packed up and ready to go!

A sunset view from our rental house.

All the kids before bed.

Our first day in the park. Andy forced the kids into the water because they were nervous about it being too cold.

Emma and I were trying to figure out how to skip rocks.

Ready to swim on her own. 

Little man just wanted to dig in the sand and dirt.

Love this view.

The moms got a chance to float.

The kids loved swimming at the pool at the house.

The next day we went for a hike.

There was a cave at the end of our hike.

The view from the hike.

We love to kayak.

Ready for a paddle ride.

Emma about to dive in with the older girls.

Getting ready to roast marshmallows.

Our evening entertainment.

One more group pic before we headed out.

Summer Break: Week 3

Week three was a short and busy week for us.

We got caught in a heavy down pour of rain when we were at the pool. 

The girls wanted hot chocolate to warm up.

We went the museum and met up with my dear friend and her kiddos.

Attempted a play date at the park but once again the rain came in. 

Our week was short because we headed out of town for a long weekend with friends. Stay tuned for that adventure!
