Follow me to see how this year unfolds one picture at a time...
Sometimes I get a few days behind in my posts but I am always taking the pictures. I just do not always get on the computer daily to post. If I get behind, keep checking back, there is always a picture for each day! :)

The Fourth of July

(Sorry, John - I had to use this picture.)

We had a great time this year celebrating Independence Day! I forgot to mention that we went to a fun Ward activity on Saturday, fireworks yesterday (Sunday) and then today we had a great cookout with more friends!

We were too busy talking and eating to get very many pictures (dang it!) but I managed to get three pictures of the whole day. John thinks he looks funny here but I think it's fine. This picture captures the day better than the other two do.

This is about how excited Emma was about the fireworks. They scare her a bit. She plopped down on John's lap and got her hands in their usual positions and cautiously looked up as they were going off - ever so slightly flinching from the sound. John is squinting a little too because it was still pretty light outside during the fireworks. Too bad the sun decides to become a night owl in the summer - it makes for really late firework shows!

We drove home to the sounds and sights of fireworks going off everywhere around us - it was great!

I hope you had a great time celebrating our independence as well! Happy 4th!
