4th of July Weekend

Mikelle
Jonah
Tyrel - his first 4th of July

On July 3rd, we had a huge pancake breakfast, here is Mikelle and I in the kitchen getting everything ready.
Eating pancakes on the deck
Tyrel LOVES playing out there
Sal, Sam, and Matt going on a scooter ride
The kids running up and down the sidewalk
going "fishing" in the muddy water
some quiet time
Then sparklers!




Tyrel's first sparkler!

Boston and Mikelle making "O's"
Then on July 4th, after church, nap time
Then we headed over to the Gamez's house for a BBQ, ice cream, and fireworks.

The cute Gamez girls
throwing the poppy things
The kids LOVED the fireworks. It was pretty nice for most of the fireworks, then it started pouring rain. We still got all the fireworks to light except one. Then we went inside and played games for awhile. The kids had a blast staying up SO late.
