Independence Day

We got back to Florida on July 2nd. Well more like July 3rd. We didn't make it home til after 1 o'clock in the morning. Yikes! Thankfully the boys slept in so it wasn't too bad. To celebrate the fourth of July we started the morning out with some patriotic waffles. They turned out cute & delicious!


We wanted to have people over, but knew everyone would already have made plans by this point. Thankfully we got invited to go play volleyball, swim & have a picnic with some families from our ward during the day.

Liam, Gavin, Tynlee & Devin

It was so much fun playing volleyball too. I wish I would have taken some pictures. Oh well.

That night Lisa & Devin invited us over with some other families for a BBQ & fireworks.

 
 Tyn & Gavin eating dinner. Isn't her tshirt the cutest? Her mama made it. So crafty.

 Busting out the smoke bombs for the kiddos. They loved them!

 

 
It's hard to see, but Solomon is in that cloud of smoke. Tee hee!


 Okay, maybe they all didn't love them. Haha!

 Getting some snuggles while watching the fireworks. We didn't give ourselves enough time to make it into the park for the big fireworks so we just watched from the road. We still had a pretty good view though.




 It was a great Independence Day celebrated with friends & our little family. We feel so blessed to live in this great country & God Bless the U.S.A!
