Fourth of July

This year we had our awesome 4th of July party. We had our friends over to have a BBQ and to swim. It was so fun hanging out with our friends and eating yummy food. It is so nice that Brooklyn and Nikell can swim now it makes us feel a lot more comfortable having them in the water for parties like this. When it started getting dark we headed over to watch the Ripon firework show. We have the best location that we discovered last year. It is the perfect place to let the kids run around and play and not have it be too busy with a ton of people. It also has a perfect view of the show. Brooklyn and Nikell are not big fans of the loud fireworks and usually cover their ears the whole time. Presly on the other hand did not mind at all! She just stared up the whole time with amazement. After the firework show we went back to our house and did our own firework show. Toby likes to set off fireworks and help the kids with the sparklers. Lots of fun!!
