4th of July!

Who doesn't love 4th of July! Celebrating our freedom in summertime with yummy food, friends and fireworks!  This year we had a big BBQ at my parents house and it was so fun! Lucy LOVED playing with all of her cousins and kept telling me she was so excited for fireworks and "she wouldn't be scared".  When it got closer to fireworks time we headed over to a street by our house which is right behind where they shoot off the Santee fireworks and this year they were even closer to us! I mean we really got the 4D experience complete with falling ash and particles from the fireworks.  Lucy kept her word and wasn't scared and Jack was so mesmerized that he fell asleep during the show!

 Yummy food!

Sibling Love


My babies love each other so much it just melts my heart! They were watching cartoons on my bed this particular day while I was getting ready and I looked over and Jack had fallen asleep and Lucy had covered him with her arm and her blanket while she continued to watch.  I know there will come a day when they are fighting like cats and dogs but for now I will enjoy these precious moments.
