4th of July

we had a really fun 4th of July this year.

Here's Anna all patriotic with her cupcake (she helped me make those little flag toothpicks) we had a few families from our ward over for a BBQ and fireworks.

Everett with his sparklers

the kids and I made these confetti pull rockets. After a few pulls, they actually worked:)

my favorite part of the night was when Dave put on his climbing gear and hung our swing for us. Paul thought it was so cool there was a guy up in the tree. Later he walked outside and said, "huh, where's guy?".

the next day enjoying the swing. The kids say they feel like they are flying.
