We had a very nice Fourth of July....it was another beautiful day (which we are very blessed and lucky to get around here on the fourth!!) and we spent it with our family. The girls enjoyed some time playing in the sandbox and eating popsicles...then it was off to Marmee and Poppy's house to relax and have some fun! We sat outside for hours just watching the girls play in the pool although they had more fun dumping the Little People in it and then using measuring cups to pour water over all of our feet!! We enjoyed a nice dinner and then mom gave us all an Independence Day - American History quiz....we didn't do too bad!! After baths it was time for the fireworks...thanks to dad and Jason setting them off in the backyard! Angel and Emma loved the sparklers...but after that it was downhill. They did not like the fireworks at all....the noise most of all...so mom and I ended up inside with them looking out the window. Maybe next year.....:) We had some yummy dessert....mom made a yummy lemon angel food cake with lemon dressing and fresh fruit and whip cream....Emma ate up all the strawberries and Angel finished off the raspberries. We headed home tired but thankful for this great country we live in and all the blessings we receive....a special thanks to all the men and women who sacrifice on a daily basis to make sure we are able to continue enjoying and celebrating these freedoms!!
Angel found a fun ball to bounce on...
...so Marmee joined in....
...then Angel got a ride...
...and then made herself comfortable!
Emma felt left out so she went by herself and found her own ball....so funny!
Angel and Emma were a little concerned about what Poppy and Papa were doing with all those fireworks!
