4th of July

Okay, so I know it has been a long time since I blogged, so to save you all from a million pics. I will just go back to the 4th of July. Here are the pics from our fun weekend with my sister, Kimberly, from Houston and her family.

We started our day by going to Rhodes Ranch to fed the ducks. It wasn't as fun as usual because they were trimming the trees and it was a mess. There also weren't as many ducks as usual, but a promise is a promise, so we only stayed for about 15 minutes. :)

Jaxon was pretty tired already and ready for his nap as you can tell by his thumb!

Look at the mess from the trees! The water was also a lot lower than normal.

This is one of the crafts the kids made. They got to color USA bandanas. I wish I would have gotten Spencer on film saying bandana. It was really cute!

Spencer was having a blast with his cousins and his uncle Brandon. He still asks for his cousins, he doesn't understand why we can't go see them everyday. :(

We started the evening with some poppers and then sparklers. I just really like this picture of my niece Kalea. I thought the smoke looked really cool.

This was the funniest moment of the whole evening! We went to start lighting fireworks and two of my brothers were out in the street forever while the kids waited patiently on the step. Well, they waited and waited and my brothers could not get the firework to light. Finally David went out to see if he could help and looked at the "firework." Turns out it was just a cone shaped Popper!

The kids were all really good for the fireworks. They would just cheer and cheer! Luckily Jaxon had gone to bed by this point. :)

Well that was our 4th. It was great to see my sister and I am so excited to go to Houston after she has her baby! We weren't going to take our kids, but Spencer loved his cousins so much, we might just have to! Well, this is all I have time to post now, but I promise to post pics from Jaxon birthday by the end of the week!
