4th of July

We had an absolute blast on the 4th of July!! We spent the 4th at Mimi and Poppie's house swimming, eating, and shooting fireworks. I think my girls would both stay in thepool ALL day if we let them. Madelyn's swim lessons really paid off, and as long as she has her floaties on she can "swim" all around the pool by herself. She'll also jump off the diving board and go down the water slide!! Aubrey loves the pool as well, but isn't quite as brave.

On Monday we went to Clay and kally's house for another cook out. Clay made some delicious ribs, and we hung out and just enjoyed each other's company. It was pretty hot, so we decided to let the kids play in the sprinkler. It was hilarious to watch!!

So here are the pics from those 2 days. I'm having technical difficulties and can't get the pics in the proper order, but you'll still get the idea!!

Sprinkler fun!!

Notice in this picture that Aubrey is holding something. Those are Colton's shorts, which he decided he didn't need!!

Just starting out in the sprinkler....

Madelyn during the fireworks show....

Madelyn did this first, then everyone had their turn!!!

Smaller fireworks - still plugging her ears

I love Madelyn's "smile" in this one....

Colton's turn (before the shorts came off)...

AND after...

Clint was experimenting with the black and white setting on the camera. Not sure why

Will and Reagan joined us swimming on the 4th!

Not happy to be covered in grass...

Aubrey's turn!!

I think the bow stayed in just long enough for us to take the picture

Posing again

I'm sure I'll have tons of pictures to post again soon. Mom is getting married next weekend and Madelyn's birthday is the weekend after that!! Stay tuned....
