More 4th of July Fun!

So, after the parade, we headed to MeMe and Pop's house for some pool time. The kids love playing in the pool & it really tires them out! There were lots of people there. All of our family that lives in town came over, plus the Wallace & the Wilcox families. We had fun!!

Before we could get there, Chandler fell asleep in the truck. This picture was taken right after she woke up...she had a hard time waking up!!

While Chandler was sleeping, Cheney, Terryn, Dean, & Daddy headed to the pasture to shoot a rifle...Cheney has been begging to shoot a 22. He was pumped to get the chance today...

Cheney DID NOT want to take this picture with Terryn, but they look so CUTE!! I keep telling him that one day, he will like that he got to hang out with such a pretty girl.

Uncle Ernie came into town this weekend & Katie immediately made him her friend. She enjoyed jumping off the board on his back!

I need to explain why there are 3 pictures that look almost alike. I was trying to get a picture of all the girls...I arranged them from oldest to youngest. That was the easy part...the hardest part of getting them to all smile & look cute at the same time. In the next 3 pictures, you might see a good picture of the girls...

Thanks Bethany, Maggie, Katie, Terryn, & Chandler. You guys all make me SMILE!!

This picture is my favorite though...they are all yelling "cheeese" for this one...

4th of July wouldn't be complete without watermelon...

Great Watermelon Face

Great Watermelon Belly

Yes, they are eating again...this time it is brownies.

Sweet Sunburned Faces--they are waiting for fireworks.

Ever since I was a little girl, we have watched fireworks at the same place...it is a gas station parking lot. Some of you girls from college who read my blog probably remember...11 eleven years ago, you joined my family for fireworks on the night before our wedding. It is a silly place to watch, but it is tradition...

The boys were looking cool...

We played around & took tons of pictures while we waited.

Watching fireworks in Mommy's lap.

The boys anxiously waiting for the next fireworks to shoot up!!

HAPPY 4th of JULY!! We miss all of you who couldn't join us!! Tomorrow, Daddy & I celebrate our 11 year anniversary. MeMe & Pop celebrate their 39 year anniversary. Thank you, MeMe & Pop for being such Godly examples for us!! WE LOVE YOU!!
