4th of July Fun

We had a great 4th of July party here in England! It was a beautiful day for a BBQ! When you can't be with family or in the country that you are celebrating the independence of you can't beat good friends and food!

We got the pool out for the kiddos. William wasn't sure he wants to play with the 1 year olds!

Here comes...
TROUBLE!
William found a friend his own age!Ollie decided to jump in the sandbox so he had to get hosed off. Of course it turned into a game!



Getting ready for some "daytime" fireworks.

Kate and John came up late and missed our picture.


The boys getting the fireworks ready.



The reaction.

Daddy to the rescue!

Nice catch - even while holding Chase.

It seems so odd celebrating Independence Day in the country we gained our independence from! :-) Chase's reaction was the same as Uncle Scott's first introduction to fireworks! Daddy's do do a good job of rescuing! Looks like a lot of fun! C U SOOOOON!!!
Love, Mom and Dad

That picture of Chase reaching for a beer is priceless! He actually looks guilty that he got caught. You guys are going to have your hands full when he is a teenager!

See you guys soon!
