4th of July

The holiday of the 4th started out the right way...

In our swim suits. 

After a morning of outside chores, 

a trip to QT,

and teaching holly to mow the lawn,

Tyler, Holly and I took a quick dip in the pool!

After some lunch and lounging, 

Holly took Chris & Hannah and Tyler & I out on a Fourth of July photo shoot!

 (hehehe! That's my husband ^)

We love the USA

Then it was party time!!
Nothing says Independence Day like some swimming and BBQ'n :)

After some delicious burgers and hotdogs, it was firework time!

Tyler picked up some fireworks and he and Chris put on a great show, including a lovely aerial display.

(I only have photos of the ground fireworks...[thank you dad for the awesome shots!]) 

And after the show we had some fun with sparklers!!

(my favorite part of the fourth....SPARKLERS!)

We love the Fourth!! 

Any holiday filled with family, food, fireworks, and fun is a good holiday in our book!
