4th of July

This year we had to keep the 4th pretty mellow. Luckily Grandma and Grandpa we're willing to keep it simple with us too... Just fun family,

 A little bit of swimming,

And some moon sand...

Happy 4th!

The Fourth of July

On the actual 4th, we visited with Karen and Kevin and the rest of the Lindstedt clan... The kids had a blast with poppers and sparklers!

Gracie was a crazy daredevil...

Happy Fourth!

The Third of July!

On the third of July we always go to my parents house because their neighborhood park does their fireworks on the third.  It works out really well because we get to celebrate with both sides of our families. This year we decided to swim at the house before we walked over to Elmo.  But, when we got there, both of the kids were sleeping! Gracie woke up for a little bit, but that was it.  Oh well!

Way more importantly, Lauren and Doug welcomed Reese into the world on the third!!!  She is so adorable already!

Congratulations Lauren and Doug!

4th Of July: A Week Early

The weekend before Fourth of July (yes, I'm THAT far behind) we headed out to Danny and Kristi's to check out their neighborhood celebration.  Their park had a huge event.  There were water slides, rides, food booths, music and of course fire works! It was great.

We walked over from their house...

Hit the water slides...

After dinner, it was time to hit the rides! 

 The next one was a roller coaster, but Gracie wasn't scared at all...

We squeezed in one last motorcycle ride and then it was time for funnel cake and fireworks!

Thank you Danny and Kristi!
