July 4th {or 3rd}

Photobucket

Since the Fourth of July fell on a Sunday this year we decided to celebrate on the third. We started the day at a birthday party for nephew Ty, then headed over to Rich & Marla's for dinner, games, and fireworks! The kids had fun playing Uno with Grandma, Grandpa, and Aunt Alayna and wrestling with Curt & Matt. They also spent a lot of time torturing trying to coax a water snake out from under a rock. Jackson finally succeeded and uncle Curt caught the poor, stinky thing.

We enjoyed the firework show courtesy of Marla and Costco. The kids had fun trying to guess what each one would look like, and would cheer {or boo if it wasn't up to their standard} after each one.

It was also 9 years ago that Matt was diagnosed with Leukemia. He loves that he gets to celebrate being alive each year with fireworks!
