The 4th. Of July.

Yes, I am a slacker. But I figure I better get this up before it is August. Here was our chill 4th weekend.

 Kiteboarding! Carter wants to go. Not for a while buddy.

 Yet he wouldn't touch sand. This picture is awesome (he got over it the next time we went to the river by the way)

 Love this cute face. (Yes Julie, I am getting mushy)

 We hung out at a park/shore. Well, just a park. The water was too high, so no sand for our jazzed up kids. Bummer. The ice cream did the trick! Then, we left. Let's just say not our kind of folk around those parts on the weekend of the 4th.

 Stopped on the corner at this cool church. Brady and the kids drank from what they thought was a cool water fountain (still hoping it wasn't some holy water of some sort we were disrespectfully drinking!)

 Then off to yet another park. First we ran through the splash pad, Ella had a blast! That is until a bum washed his clothes in the water and spouted out some vulgar language to some kids who got him wet. We promptly moved on.

 Looks like he's having fun?

 Until the water hits his face. 

 I love this picture. They are so cute together these days. 

 Ella took this picture. Good photographer. Happy anniversary of our engagement to us! =)

 Waiting for the fireworks. Just like her weird Auntie Cass.

And here is Papa's perfect angel. =)

Watched a firework show, hung out with strangers. Great, relaxing, fun day!
