Happy Fourth of July! (The Finale)

We topped off our fun-filled day with a gathering at the Warta home. They have a beautiful backyard and the weather was perfect. We all had such a great time! The kids played and played and we had a chance to visit with everyone. We ate until we were ready to pop and then ate a little more. Sydney and Sam got to try sparklers for the first time. Sam got to try one, but after his attempts to put out the flame with his hand and then trying to chase down the sparks flying off of the other kids' sparklers, he was strapped into a booster seat and given a popsicle, where he could safely watch. They really enjoyed the fireworks...they even clapped and cheered. We got home late and everyone fell into bed exhausted from all the day's activities. But, boy did we have fun!!!

Love the picture of Sam showing you his cookie! I don't know about your kids but Landon had too many cookies to count! Thanks for sharing your 4th with us, we enjoyed having you over.
