Independence Day

Matt kite flying

Uncle Judd carrying all the older girls to the house

We spent our fourth of July being eaten by mosquitos in front of the lake with Uncle Judd and Jen, Andi & Jimmy, Brooklyn and Kaydence.  Even the babies were well behaved despite all the bites and the rain of about 15 minutes or so.  Earlier in the day we had a cook out and made ourselves sick with Italian sodas.  We looked up and tried many many different concoctions.  Some were good and some were not so much.  The next day we goofed around the house and then went to the park to play capture the flag and our old stand by kite flying - then for pizza, the Wii and Culvers red raspberry - yum, yum.  We were grateful that Judd and Jen could make it back from out west just in time for the day and that both babies allowed us to see the fireworks.  Good family times together.
