July 4, 2009

We had a wonderful 4th. Jake, unfortunately, had to work until 4:00, but that is when all the fun began. The first half of our day was very relaxing. Didn't do too much, just hung out with the boys. We eventually made it to the pool, and when we go home, Dad was there. That meant we could do our "legal" fireworks.

Reece isn't a fan of loud noise, so he stayed in the garage, in the bed of the truck. He wouldn't even do the snappers.
Riley lighting a blue smoke bomb. The boys actually called them "stink" bombs.

Afterwards, we headed over to the Ringel's for a wonderful BBQ. Thanks for all the fabulous food. We had so much fun!

We LOVE the 4th at our house. We have the Gardner fireworks practically in our backyard. Never a bad view. We sure are lucky. My camera isn't the greatest, but here are some shots I did get.

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!!
