4th and 5th

On the 4th we spent the day at the pool followed by a bbq and a few fireworks of our own. One of our friends said that he would give $5 to who ever could do a back flip of the diving board.  Syd did it on her second try, she was the only one to do it at all!  I had a picture on my phone, unfortunately it was deleted:/
My friend came up with this cute little hat project for the kids.

Our town fireworks were actually on the 5th, which is one of our friends birthday. I let Rylie take charge of the sparklers, she had done well the night before.  Turns out its a good thing that the grass is green here!  A little guy had seen his dad light multiple sparklers at once the beach and decided it was a good idea.  But it freaked him out and he threw them on the ground.  Anybody elese know that you can not stomp out sparklers! Only water works!  I am pretty sure that if we were in Idaho the whole field would have been a blaz'n.  As it was no real harm done, thank heavens!

Aren't they just the cutest!
Kill'n a little time!)
NO ONE liked my massive flash..... and I would do it again!)


Great Day, Great Family, Great Friends!

What a fun 4th! It's been years since we have ever done sparklers! Looks like a great time!

The photo with the girls all staring up looks a lot like they are doing eye rolls. Funny.
Go big flash!

Glad you were in a place that wasn't ready to be set alight.

Sounds like an action packed celebration. Looks like you have good friends and lots of fun things to do out there.

You always take such great photos and capture the moments well.
