{4th of July}

I know this is late, but blogger has been giving me some trouble lately, and I have had a hard time getting this post done! So if anything looks weird and something, that's why! I don't know what's going on with it! Anyways, we had such a great 4th of July this year! We were able to have both Timmy and Ava for most of that week, so that made it even more special! The weather was VERY rainy that whole week, but luckily it let off long enough for us to enjoy the parade and the sun came out long enough for a few of us to get a pretty nasty sunburn!

  
                                                                  Waiting for the parade to start

  

  
    
Mom got the kids shirts and they decorated them! They were so proud of their shirts and  were so excited to wear them on the 4th!!

                             Spraying on some rubbing alcohol to add a tie-dye affect!

                                                                          The finished shirts!!!


   
After the parade, we had just enough time to eat our picnic out on the deck and have a quick water battle before it absolutely POURED the rain!! It was a very quick and heavy downpour and then it was done and the sun was back out, so we were back outside!

It rained several times off and on over the afternoon, so during one of the rainy times, Kaleb brought down some puppies from our neighbor that he works for, so the kids could play with them!

Waiting for the fireworks to start at the lake! They were incredible this year!

Hope everyone else had a great 4th of July!
We miss you so much, Timmy and Ava!!!
