Summertime!!

I really am a serious fan of SUMMER! 

We just celebrated the 4th of July and I enjoyed being with family and seeing fireworks and BBQs and swimming.... That is my idea of a good time! Annie loved everything about the fireworks this year. Last year they were still a little too "BOOMY" for her. But, I think she would go see them everyday if she could. (I think she likes staying up late, too!)

Here are a few pictures from last night's firework party!

We missed you, Sophie. I hope you had fun at camp.

I often mentioned how blessed I am as I express myself with this blog.... I am blessed because my family is so special and I am blessed to live in America. I enjoyed explaining to Annie a little bit about how our country began and how wonderful it is to have the freedoms we have.  After listening to me talk for a few minutes she asked me if she was "free" to go outside and ride her bike?! I'm sure she was listening to everything I mentioned about the constitution and our founding fathers!
