I love the 4th of July. It's a very nostalgic holiday for me since I am able to watch my kids do the same things I did as a kid on the 4th of July. I love watching the excitement on their faces.
They decorated and rode their bikes in the parade.

| Molly got to choose a couple outfits for her Build-A-Bear when we were picking out Stockton's bear. She chose a cute patriotic outfit so her bear (Carlee) got to ride with her. |
Brynn was not going to be left behind this year! She pedaled her little trike as fast as she could and still ended up one of the last kids. She was easily distracted by all the other kids so I had to push her most of the way, although her legs go pretty fast and far on that trike.
They played on the bounce houses.
That is a really big slide! Brynn climbed all the way to the top but wouldn't go down without Justin's help.
Mmm, snow cones!
Both Molly and Stockton tried the fish scramble this year. Stockton got out as soon as he got in but Molly stayed in and actually caught a fish this year (with her hands)! Grandpa even grilled it for dinner that night at our barbecue.
Swimming at Grandma and Grandpa's all afternoon. Molly and Tessa stayed in long after everyone else was done.
My mom and dad also have this really awesome blow-up water toy. It's huge and super fun!
Poppers and fireworks at Jeff and Ali's. After a firework would go off all the kids would run around the circle yelling and cheering as loud as they could. It was quite the celebration!
Oh, and sparklers.
