Proud To Be An American!

i LOVE the 4th of July! Growing up we always had big family get-togethers, and my family is very patriotic. because of that, the 4th of july has a special place in my heart. i'm so grateful to live in this country with its freedoms! since we moved here i have a rough day on the 4th and miss seeing my family very very much. it was fun to celebrate with Connor this year now that he is old enough to participate in things...

This year was a bit odd to me, since it RAINED on the 4th of July! i don't know if i have any memories of that ever happening to before. but, we do live in Arizona, and that is very different from my Idaho! It was still beautiful weather outside, even though it was quite a bit humid. I took Connor on a little walk through the apartments and he thought splashing in puddles was AMAZINGLY fun! that IS what little boys do best!!!!

We had thought that Caleb would have to work, but he didn't so we decided to go to the store and buy sparklers and pop-its and Connor had soooo much fun!!!!!

Hope everyone had a wonderful 4th of July like we did!!! love you all!
