4th of July

We sure had a whirlwind 4th of July this year...but it was great!!
We started the day with breakfast at Uncle Courtney's house.

Uncle Rick, Aunt Lisa, Uncle James, Uncle Courtney & Emma

Aunt Ellen with the kids...of course!

Shiloh, Sylvia, Shauna & Maddie

Ryan & Levi...maybe?

Meredi & Mom

Ready for breakfast! Cinnamon rolls, sausage, fruit and juice! Yum!

All of the girls with their princess ribbon crowns!

After breakfast we rushed home to have a BBQ with old friends that we hadn't seen in a couple of years. The Mauzy's came and spent the entire afternoon with us - eating, swimming, playing and catching up. Way too short of a visit - and too few pictures b/c we were too busy playing!

After the BBQ we drove up to grandma and grandpa's house for fireworks!

Joe - working it!

And it paid off!

Jared & Jason, waiting for fireworks!

Uncle Dick broke out the soft serve ice-cream maker and Meredith loved it! (However, Joseph is the one who ate us all under the table - I seriously lost count of how many cones he had!)

After his 15 or so cones, Joseph scored cotton-candy bigger than his head from Uncle Dave!

Fireworks, ice-cream, cotton-candy, popcorn, family, friends...it was a WONDERFUL day!

oh dad...did he really have to wear the "don't be a gas hole" shirt to a family event? :) It looks like a busy fun filled day, wish we were there. I love Meridi's hat! So cute.
