whobody is a firecracker?

Okay, okay. :) I know it is the end of August…but before I share the first day of school pictures, I better finish going through my SUMMER ones!

Here are pictures of our adventures over the 4th of July weekend.

Beginning with Teddy Bear Parade….

Then, on the actual 4th…the big parade!

Then our fun afternoon in the park.

And finally, a grill out and fireworks with some friends at our house that night.

And the grande finale of the 4th of July weekend is always the church service in the park.

I'd love to write more, but I have a few distractions calling "MOM!!!!!".

whobody went on vacation?

Shortly after the 4th we went on a very quick (one night) family vacation.  We headed to the quad cities to go to the zoo and stay in a motel. The kids had a blast!  Not a lot of words…just sharing pictures.
