Yesterday we drove an hour South to hang out with some family for the 4th of July, and to meet our newest niece! Baby Lola was 11 days old the first time Auntie Kendra got to hold her...
Such a sweet baby!!
We hung out at some extended family's house and played in their pool. The weather was perfect and we had a great time.
My strong boys...
Super Daddy =)
Our kids have always called Grandma Donna "Gaga" ever since I can remember, and they are lucky to get to see her (and Papa!) on pretty much a weekly basis. They were thrilled to get to see her on the 4th too! Here's Gaga with her tenth grandchild...
Luke and Abbey had an absolute blast swimming and playing with their cousins! It was really the first time that they just played and played and could keep up just fine =). Four is a fun year!
Uncle Dave getting some cuddle time with Lola...
The twins were in that pool most the afternoon, they just loved it...
Finally we lured them out of the pool with the promise of fireworks...
It doesn't get dark until nearly 10pm here right now, so we had to settle for "evening light" and set them off around 8pm. Good enough =)
Luke gets a little anxious around fireworks, but the ones we set off were small enough that he was able to enjoy the fun with his cousins. Abbey loved them all.
Silly cousins...
We loaded up and got on the road after fireworks, and had the best ride home watching fireworks light up the sky all around us. It was so beautiful! Dave even pulled the car over at one viewpoint over looking the river and we got out and watched some amazing fireworks for a bit. The kids loved it (and so did I =) ).
