Celebrating The 4th

The 4th of July was spent with extended family in Cedar City.

Watching movies during down time.

Working crossword puzzles.

Then taking a swim in the hotel pool.

Even little ones that weren’t sure about getting wet joined in. (Julien doesn’t like swimming because it’s too wet.)

Zachary enjoys splashing everyone within 15 feet of him.

Amanda can’t resist texting for more than 5 minutes.

Even the babies took the plunge and enjoyed it for the most part. Ummm, maybe not by the look on Maddux’s face.

At least until the great-grandma’s came and rescued them from their evil parents and uncle. 

My girls can’t get in the pool without climbing on someone’s shoulders, especially Ty.

Crashed as soon as their heads hit their pillows.

The kids eating dinner at Chris and Emily’s.

Playing with sidewalk chalk.

And stopping a runaway train.

Everyone loves a parade.

And playing in the water.

Trying to get cool on a hot day.

Also lots of eating, singing, laughing, playing, swinging, climbing, sliding, pretending, talking, hugging, snacking, cooking, holding, kissing, walking, watching, packing, cleaning, good-byeing!

No better way to celebrate the 4th!
