Happy 4th!

We stayed over from the dentist appointments to have the 4th of July celebration with our family at my cousin's house and saw lots of family on my mom's side.  We had a great time, and the kids got to go through an obstacle course of a watery soapy slip and slide, walk on a balance beam, crawl under a volleyball net and dig for marshmallows in a popcorn filled kiddie pool.  It was entertaining to watch!  It was so entertaining that Ava just sat down by the popcorn pool and ate popcorn while the rest of the kids worked!  Those sillies!  

Then we headed home to Fairmont for music in the park and fireworks by the lake.  We did get rained on, but it was still worth it!  We did it last year and loved it so much that we didn't want to miss it this year.  We saw some church friends and were able to spend time with some of them making a memory in the rain.  So now we have a tradition although I think we would be ok without the rain next year!
Here's Ava squeezing a baby duck.  I was so nervous for that poor little thing.  But it survived.  








Haha!  Got one!
