Family and the 4th

A few weeks ago we went to visit Josh's parents. We had a nice visit! It was a long drive though- 11 hours each way. But we survived :)

While there, we went to an aquarium! We enjoyed it, and it is nice to get out of the heat.

We have been enjoy some wonderful summer weather. Although it's warm, it hasn't been too hot. The kids have been enjoying time outside, and I have as well.

  

We had a great 4th of July! We began by driving a float in the local parade. Although we live in a small town, there are lots of activities around town. Gus and Maddie really enjoyed being a part of the parade.

After the parade, we came home and grilled hot dogs in the backyard. The kids enjoyed playing with their water table before naps.

In the evening we spent some time with our friends. Gus stayed awake and was able to watch some fireworks. They have a huge firework show at our local park, and we are lucky enough to be able to see it from in front of our house.

Hope everyone had a great 4th!!
