Fun on the 4th!

We had a wonderful day yesterday celebrating the 4th of July! We live right on the parade route in our little town, and it is always so much fun sitting with friends (and this year my parents came!) and enjoying the festivities. The kids always have a blast catching candy and watching the different floats that go by. After the parade and lunch we have a tradition of going out to David's parents' house to enjoy the lake and fireworks at night. Gabe and I left before fireworks this year, hopefully next year we'll be able to stay longer! Here are some pictures from yesterday:

All 5 of our fantastic firecrackers
Luke's shirt says "Dad's little firecracker" and Gabe's says "mom's little sparkler". Isn't that so cute...and true? (Look at Luke trying to grab the flag from Maddy, he's such a stinker!)
