My first time to celebrate the 4th of July in 4 years was great! I especially enjoyed watching the kids have a blast. The children enjoyed swimming, jumping on the trampoline, fireworks and playing with as many toys as possible. This was the first time for Layla and Finley to see/hear fireworks and they weren’t bothered one bit. At one point, Layla walked over to her Aunt Jamie, gave her leg a hug and said, “don’t worry, it’s just fire.” Layla swam without clinging on to someone for dear life (there are adults close by in the water, you just can’t see them).

My son is weird. Yep. His favorite thing to do in the trampoline was to fling his body/face against the siding and smoosh his face.

This is my niece Aislee. She doesn’t like her Aunt April![]()

This was too cute not to post

We had a gorgeous sunset!

We ended the night with some really great fireworks put on by my sister’s neighbors. Sorry but there’s no photos of those.
