Thank you, Valentines, for taking pity on us again! Our only family that lives close by (in WY) just had baby #2, so we were all alone this year for July 4th. What would we do without our friends?? We love their family so it was easy to have fun. Dinner was scrumptious, the company was a hoot and the fireworks at the soccer stadium...SPECTACULAR! Not only do we love summer, but this holiday is one of our favorites. Who can complain when we are covered in BBQ, drippy summertime desserts, enjoying time with friends and feeling the warmth of the sun on our skin? Ahhh....Summer! (I just calculated today...we are officially 5 weeks and 2 days from the start of school...SO SAD!)

(Here is the Finale of the fireworks show we went to see. You can hear Travis' Mom and her excitement! I think she even breaks into a short version of the National Anthem (that's when I start to giggle)! Oh, and Amelia yelled at Evan..."Daddy, these are beautiful!")
