4th of July

My brother Josh kept up his annual tradition of flying out to visit us for the 4th of July.  We are always so excited for him to come.  We had great weather so the day started out with some whiffle ball in the back yard.


Our annual block party was much smaller this year.  Lots of neighbors took advantage of the 3 day weekend and headed out of town.  So it was much quieter on our block than usual.  But Noah and his dad came over and we barbecued and set off lots of fireworks.  A great time as always!

The kids decked out in their red, white & blue.

Sparklers!

As you can see, Jack is a typical boy - loves fire, explosions, flame-shooting swords, etc.  


4th of July is a long night in Washington because it stays light until close to 10:00 PM.  So it can be hard for little ones to stay awake, even with loud fireworks going off.  Kate decided she couldn't stay awake any longer and went to bed in the middle of the garage.
