4th of July

 Here are a bunch of pictures from our 4th of July party!  We had a lot of family come, but we missed having two of my brothers (and families).  My Dad's mom and sister from Colorado were able to join us!  It was a lot of fun having so much family around, I was sad to have them go.

 Roasting Marshmallows was a big hit!!!



 Nathan really took to his Great Aunt Judy (my Dad's sister).  He kept calling her Grandma!
 This is my Grandmother (Dad's mom), and of course Ashley in her undies!
 The morning of the 4th was a little slow getting everyone up and out of bed.  :)
 A tribute to Bryan
 Nephews!!!













 Let the swimming begin....or the relaxing in the swimming pool!?


 Okay, my head looks fat, but it's because my hair is blowing!  Here, I am teaching the kids how to make a whir-pool!








 Ronin started walking at our 4th party!!  So exciting!



 I should have made more of this (7-layer bean dip) cause it was REALLY good!  I'd never made one before, but it was all everyone wanted to eat! Yum, yum, yum

 You can't see Daniel, but he's across the yard playing catch with Uncle Matt.  Matt would jump into the air and Daniel would throw it to him!

 I bought Daniel some smoke bombs...he put on his own little fourth of July Show for the kids.
We had a great time going over to a friends home for a HUGE firework show, and then came back for our own firework show...which almost blew everyone up!  What can I say!?  Im not used to Washington fireworks!  It was a learning experience.
