Our Holiday In Pictures

I don't have much time to write, the children are all sleeping (again! Love it!) and I need a nap.  We were up late last night enjoying the fireworks.  So to put this post up before I forget and it gets too late, we'll do a picture post.



We found that Ladybug doesn't much like fireworks.  She spent much of yesterday like this.



We spent the afternoon at an Independence Day festival in the park.  It was tons of fun.  Fritter is our little dare-devil.  He had a blast on the giant inflatable slides.

Squeezing out.

At first Ladybug wasn't sure she liked the whole jumping-in-a-bounce-house thing.  But I got her to smile and jump anyway.

Sunflower spent much of her time in the stroller, smiling at mom.  I spent much of my time smiling back and hiding from the sun.

There was lots of waiting in lines.

It was hot, we endured a sandstorm, and the kids were antsy by the time the fireworks started around 9:30.  But it was a good show.  It took us close to an hour to get out of the parking lot, but it was a peaceful hour.  All three kids fell asleep as soon as we got in the van.
