Fun on the 4th

July 4th has always been one of my favorite holidays. I suppose it's probably because that's when my family usually gets together to celebrate my birthday too. Here are some of the highlights from this years fun:



Me with my baby boy! There are very few photos of me at all so I decided to hand the camera over to my hubby who did a great job at capturing this sweet photo of us.



My brother doing fireworks with the kids. Nope, he never really grows up. I think he enjoyed it as much as they did!



My niece catching a snooze on the swing outside. Still trying to think of a way to use this as some sort of bribery. Don't worry, Alaina...I'll think of something!



It was fun to watch Thomas and Braden shoot off fireworks at night. They were really into it this year. I'm sure someday this will end up as bottle rocket fights or some such mother's worst nightmare!

Yep. Good times.
