4th of July!

We love the 4th of July and so we took all weekend to celebrate!

On the 4th of July, we had a block party with our neighbors.  In the morning we all went to the pool and swam for a few hours.  After lunch and naps we got back together and grilled out and let the kids run around and play all afternoon.  We set off some fireworks and enjoyed the evening together.  It was wonderful!
 

I gave each of our fabulous neighbors some of our Red, White, and Blue 

4th of July Star Cookies as a little treat before our block party.

Happy 4th of July!

 2 cookies each of Red, White, and Blue

 All the kids are in bed, so the adults enjoyed a little time together

On Friday, we drove to Pennsylvania to visit Ben's parents and then on Saturday we went to Jared and Kelly's annual 4th of July pool party. We had a wonderful visit with Elizabeth's Nana and Pap Pap on Friday and Saturday morning and then it was off to the pool after nap time.
