::our 4th::


For the 4th this year, we went to the waterpark all day, had a BBQ @ our house, watched the town fireworks show, and then lit sparklers @ our house afterward. It was lots of fun. The kids LOVED the water park, Grandma & Papa with the kitty came, and we just swam and played all day long! Chloe went down the big slide with lots of waterfalls lots of times, and they played in the deep pool & the kids pool. Portie got stung by a bee :(, and ended up falling asleep after a while. The fireworks were great! We thought Port might get nervous cause they were loud, and we sat a lot closer than we usually do, but he loved them! Chloe did too...she said "they look like big wiggly spiders." Grandma & Papa Kitty came too, and we sat with all of Matt's family. It was so fun to just sit and talk with everyone. After fireworks, we got home and all did sparklers in our driveway. Chloe thought they were like magic wands & Portie thought you were supposed to blow them out like candles :) It was a fun 4th :)

Cute family :) I got a kick out of Porter trying to "blow out" the sparklers!

What a fun holiday! What waterpark did you go to? I think your kids are starting to look a little more alike.

I love seeing how big your kids are getting! When you're not around them all the time, it just seems like they turn from babies to little kids so quickly! So much fun!
