Our July 4th

Three posts in one day......don't faint! I know I am late posting about our 4th but I have been in a blogging slump needless to say. We had a great day at the creek after the rain let up which was a little after noon. My husbands mother made these adorable outfits for my children. We have an amazing view where we go every year on the family farm. There is a creek that flows right through part of the land and makes for a great swimming, fishing, canoeing area. This year Naomi spent most of her time in the water. Naomi isn't real into fireworks but she did give the smoke bombs a try and enjoyed those. However this was the first year that we let Josiah light fireworks on his own and he done nothing but let bottlerockets off all day and had the greatest time doing that. It always seems that the 4th is the hardest on the babies with it being hot but Eli done fabulous! He played and rarely ever fussed. Played the majority of the time and then took a nap for a little bit and was ready to go for the rest of the night. We usually spend our evening at the creek shooting off fireworks there but this year we decided to head to a local town and watch the fireworks that the town shoots off over the lake. It was a gorgeous show and we had an amazing time! Overall the day was great and I am ready to do it all over again next year.
