4th of July

As usual, we had a great time with Kelly, Ryan, Abbott, Popo & Moma Jo over the 4th of July holiday. See for yourself!

Jarred testing out his father's day present. I see lots of grilling in our future (so I don't have to cook!)

Someone had to show Jack how to properly use a slip n slide. Of course, I did but since I'm in charge of the camera, there is no proof. Popo demonstrated, too. We both ended up with skinned knees and elbows. I guess that doesn't matter when you're a kid and having fun though!

Popo has excellent slip n slide form.

Jack got pretty good at it, too after we put in on the hill so he could slide all the way down.
Taking a healthy chocolate break with Popo.

Look at this sweet smile. She is almost always happy & loves to be outside (unless it's 98 degrees like it has been lately). We did have beautiful weather for the weekend, though.

It was still a little on the hot side so we put an umbrella over the pool and made sure the boys stayed hydrated with Powerade.

Cooling off inside with Aunt Kelly.

It was perfect to swim in the afternoon when the sun had gone behind the house.

See how happy she is to be outside!

These 2 boys are so cute & have so much fun together!

& they love each other A LOT!

Swingin' with my sweet girl.

Moma Jo helping Abbott go down the slide on the new swing set.

Uncle Ryan practicing his football skills.

Is he laughing at his daddy's football skills? Nah, he's laughing at Jack.

They won't let the heat stop them from playing football & futbol.

Trying to play in the pool even though they have their clothes back on. I believe they both ended up back in the pool with their shorts on.

And they had a lot of fun doing it!

Abbott's just chillin'.

Grilling healthy for the 4th! Chicken's on the other side with some potatoes.

Buzz Lightyear, to the rescue! Both boys got new jammies and of course had to wear them.

Which is the real buzz? It doesn't matter, they're both cute!
