Happy 4th of July

We had a really fun 4th of July. I had to take a picture of the kids in front of the house before everyone got there. They looked cute in their 4th of July clothes. We had a B.B.Q./ swim party at our house. Nana and Grandpa Stan came over for a B.B.Q. We had Tri-Tip, corn on the cob, macaroni salad and baked beans. And of course, I made brownies. I make brownies every year for the 4th of July and we had vanilla ice cream to go with the brownies. It was all so good. The kids had a great time swimming in our pool in the backyard and running through the sprinklers. It was a beautiful day. It wasn't to hot like it usually is on the 4th of July. After dinner and swimming, we all went into the house and played on the Wii and waited until it got dark. The kids had a good time watching Nana and Grandpa Stan play on the Wii and Nana and Grandpa Stan had a good time watching the kids play of the Wii. When it got dark, we all went into the backyard and sat in our chairs and watched the fireworks, that we can see from the lake. Grandma and Grandpa Hooley came over and watched the fireworks with us. It is really nice that we can see the fireworks from our house and we don't have to go to the lake and have to deal with all the people. It was nice to spend that time with family and have a good time in our backyard.












This is everyone playing on the Wii.
