Our 4th of July Celebration




When I get the photos off *my* camera, I mean Margaret's camera, I will post them.

(I let her take most of the pics that day.)


We spent our 4th with family out at Kent and Ludene's home for a bbq over Kent's new firepit then letting off our own fireworks.


Kids had fun. Adults had fun.


It was a perfectly relaxing day.


Grandpa H. with his local grandkids.


Christian and Bennett playing tug-of-war.
(These two little men are about a year and a half apart.)


It's never an easy feat to get eight kids to smile, hold still, and not do bunny ears all at the same time. This collage is a group of photos that Grandma H. tried very hard at...

I love spending my 4th of July with family. Unfortunatly we did not get to do that this year. We had a big bbq bash at my house. I love the pictures of all of the kids with the old barn in the background. Those are sometimes the best shots to have.

What fun! The kids all look so great in their red! I really think your firework pic turned out pretty well, that's hard to do!

Looks like a great day. Oh the adventures of family photos, is it just me, or do you feel like swearing afterwords as well?

Grandma did pretty good with that collage. Now, I want copies from her!

I just got back from my trip at midnight last night. I will get the pictures to you soon. I got to do a little lightening on a few. There are some real cute ones. I just found out this morning that I am giving a talk on Sunday. So, life just got a lot busier this week.

So fast. I can't hardly believe that Anthony is 3 and zach is almost 16 months old. I wish I could just freeze them at this age. Although I would prefer if Zach could walk.
