Go Fourth!

 This week has been a hectic and a blessed one.  This year we skipped out on some of the big firework celebrations in our area and just did more family time.  We started off our 4th of July celebrations with meeting some of our out of state cousins for lunch.  It is always a blessing when they come to town!  Since they were on their way to a glider competition, they gave the kids a sneak peek and even let them sit in it!

It was all the kids could talk about for hours! After that, we took the opportunity to go further south to see my folks at the gravel bar where they like to camp.  The kids wade in the water, play in the sand and get all kinds of dirty:)

    On an absolutely beautiful evening, we went to one of our favorite spots, the Lawrence Arboretum.  We took our time, admired the trees and the rainbows that hung in the sky:)

   The kids took great pleasure in putting on a show for us last night of the fireworks they had picked out.  I am simply amazed at how Shorty is really unconcerned by the noise.  The kid has no fear.  :)
