Happy 4th of July

To celebrate Independence Day we had a big party at our house this year. We invited a lot of the young families from our ward and had a ton of fun. Burke and I love to throw parties and it was great to have a yard and a home where so many people could come. We are grateful for the freedoms we enjoy in this country that allow us to have so many blessings. God Bless America!!!

Hooray for the 4th of July

water balloons are for hitting people...

Bombs Away

Susanna was content to stay out of the battle.
She entertained herslef by eating dozens of cheesy curls.


After the water play we got ready for the kids 4th of July Parade. Everyone brought decorations and the kids did a great job decorating their bikes. We paraded down the street to a large parking lot where the kids could ride their bikes .

Susanna loved waving the flag

Jennah needed a little push
so Susanna saved the day

After the parade we ate burgers and had smores over the fire pit. My camera was out of memory and I was out of energy by this point so you will just have to imagine how fun it looked:)
