Happy 4th of July!

Daddy was in charge of pictures this year, so he got some great shots of the growing garden in addition to our little firecrackers!
 This was "silly faces"
 Evening fire before the fireworks start
 Sparklers!

 My attempt at a star hairstyle
 4th of July Tractor Pull at Pioneer Village.  Owen loved the "put puts".
 Touring Pioneer Village (Joyce, Lori, James & Ava)
 The train caboose- the kids loved this!


 They liked the upper look out area of the caboose the best!


 At the blacksmith shop with Grandpa Glenn- Ava got her own little horseshoe!
We had a great 4th this year.  We started out the day at Pioneer Village with Gary & Joyce, Lori & James, and Mom & Dad.  After we were through with the tractor pull and touring the buildings, everyone came over to our house (along with Joe) and we had ribs, potatoes, and asparagus on the grill.  Then we all watched our neighbors set off TONS of fireworks.  It was better than any town show I've seen.  The kids loved the snaps and sparklers.  Ava liked to hang out in the garage during the fireworks because, again, she thinks they are too loud.  Owen did better and spent most of the time on my lap with his hands over his ears.  At least he watched!  Oh and of course- we had smores! Great night!
