Happy 4th of July





We celebrated the 4th of July at Janine and Don's home with a great cookout. Brian and Diane and the kids also came. It was a fun day. Since we had gone to fireworks the night before we were able to just hang out and have a relaxing time. Lauren and Sammie had so much swimming we had to drag them out of the pool.



Lauren and I started the day making and decorating cupcakes for the cookout. Lauren still has not gotten over the hair accident. I had the do the mixing but she helped with the decorating and did a great job.

Fireworks


We decided to go watch fireworks on Friday, July 3rd instead of the 4th. Don and Janine, Grant, Blaire, Elaine, Brian, Diane, Sammie and even little Jacob joined Lauren and me. It was a fun night and made more fun by celebrating it with family. The kids all loved the fireworks and it was a nice night. Not to hot with a little breeze, that is perfect for an Arizona July evening.
