4th of July 2010

On Saturday Grandma Judi and Grandpa Hal arrived for a visit.......and with that Grandma Judi brought the dresses she made for the girls and the matching shirt she got for Eli.....so Sunday was the big debut....the dresses were a hit...I LOVE them...the girls love them...and there were lot's of compliments all around.
Thanks Judi!


Sunday morning we went to church.......




Three crazy kids...I only wish Adi was big enough to stand in this picture too!




After church we came home and ate some lunch and got ready for our evening BBQ.....Ana, Eli and Ema also tried a little "driveway" fishing with their new fishing poles....


After our group camping weekend....our kids were so set on having their own fishing poles....so Daddy came through and bought them each their own.


Eli practicing his "cast"


And then reeling in all those "driveway" fish!


After dinner and dessert we finally settled into some chairs outside to light off our "ever so small" amount of fireworks.....thankfully the neighbors came through and put on a much larger show. We didn't buy a whole lot because we were not sure what the kids would think.....but now we know....Eli LOVES them....Ana - TERRIFIED.


Our pyro-maniac.....



Ana spent most of her evening in the house....the noise really got to her....I convinced her at one point to come out and sit in the car and watch them....but she mostly just hid in there too! Crazy girl! Once the neighborhood show was over Eric and I took Eli and a friend downtown to watch the city fireworks....while the rest of the gang stayed at home and went to bed.

We have a little pyro on our hands too!! Evan managed to singe the top of his head and burn some hair off with a sparkler. It didn't even phase him!! More fire, more fire, more fire!!!!
Love all the pictures :)
