The Fourth of July is a two day celebration for us! We headed to Peru for the fireworks on the 3rd and then came back to our house in the afternoon on the 4th for some pool fun and more fireworks!
Before we left, I tried to get a few pictures of the kids in their red, white, and blue! The pictures are actually quite comical since I couldn't get them both to look at the same time.
This is the lovely cheese face I have been getting lately :)
Almost a great picture!
And then I tried for some more pictures at Grandma & Grandpa's...
Luke already ran off and Paige was trying to walk in her "glass slippers"...pretty pic of the house though right?!?!
Some bubble fun with Daddy before everyone got there!
Then I stole her for a pic too :)
And this little firecracker too!
Then the craziness began as everyone started to arrive!
These were supposed to be used in a relay race, but there were a lot of boys there so of course they were swords!
A little pinata action!
Paige fell asleep on my lap during the fireworks on the 3rd but everyone else enjoyed them and Luke was a party animal that night!
When we got home on the 4th, we relaxed for a bit and headed out to the pool. Unfortunately, the water was a bit too chilly for all of us! But Paige did wear her golden swimsuit that we were hoping she could wear for her golden birthday party, but it wasn't quite warm enough that day. She looks like a little diva!
We popped some popcorn, packed some water and blankets, and headed to the fireworks in Beecher!
Such a cute family pic, but it was just too dark out for a phone pic :(
I think she was excited :)
Both kids made it through the fireworks this time and they were awesome. Beecher always puts on such a great display! Paige was clapping and cheering and thinking they were all "pinkkkkk!". We had a great holiday!
