We decided to celebrate the 4th with Corey's family. We left after church on Sunday and made it just in time for dinner and some fireworks. Everyone was excited for the fireworks except Emery, who was not such a fan at all and just wanted to go to bed.
The next day we didn't do a lot that morning. Part of the reason we went to celebrate with Corey's family, was that we thought there was a parade. Our memory is getting really bad because we realized that it's only on the 24th of July there. OOPS!! The kids didn't care too much though because they really just enjoy spending time with their cousins. We made it up to them by taking a walk to the snowcone shack. I, of course, forced them to take pictures along the way.
The best part about a snowcone is seeing what color it makes your tongue.
We ended the day with a cookout at Uncle Ross's family ranch. The boys ran around like crazy. They hiked, shot their BB guns, chased lizards, played frisbee and were completely covered in dirt. The girls played hard too and everybody was worn out.
Everybody had such a good time and it was great to visit with family. Poor Hailey was so tired, she woke up for just a minute to get into the house and barely made it to the stairs before she was out again.
Now I guess we have to go back for the 24th to catch the parade and our celebration will be complete!

You captured some really great pictures. Feel free to leave church early any time you want... unless you have sharing time. ;)

That picture of Brendan sticking out his tongue cracks me up. He looks like he is afraid.
